If you have a business located in a storefront, then you may occasionally need professional glass services to make repairs or to replace glass. Some businesses are susceptible to burglaries, which may include having their glass doors or windows broken by thieves. Along with offering glass repairs, many glass companies can also repair the door or window frames.
Door and Window Repairs
When someone tries to break into your store, they may not only damage or break the glass, they may also damage the door or window frame. If a frame is damaged, the glass cannot be replaced until it has been repaired. Fortunately, many commercial glass companies not only take care of glass replacement in Columbia, MD, but they can repair the aluminum frames as well.
Repair or Replacement
A professional glass installer will carefully examine the door or window frame to check for damage, such as bent aluminum. To form a proper seal during a glass replacement, the frame needs to be as straight as possible. If there is damage, the installer can try to fix the existing frame, but if the damage is too severe, they will need to replace it.
A window or door that is not properly sealed can allow hot or cold air to seep into your store. This can cause temperature fluctuations that can put some of your merchandise at risk for spoilage or force your HVAC system to work harder to maintain a consistent temperature in your business.
