Storefront Glass Replacement for Damaged Business Fronts
Damaged storefront glass affects the front of the business, visibility and security. BoardUp replaces fixed storefront windows, business-front panes, sidelites and transoms after break-ins, vandalism, impact damage or emergency securing across Toronto and the GTA.
PropertyRetail, restaurant, office or plaza
Glass areaStorefront, entrance or door glass
First checkFrame, opening and access
ResultCommercial frontage restored
Replace the failed fixed pane when the frame can stay.
When the storefront frame, channels and adjacent panels remain serviceable, the damaged fixed pane, sidelite or transom can be replaced without rebuilding the complete business frontage.
Documents after sudden damage
Keep the original damage photos and emergency-securing records after a break-in, vandalism, storm or impact. BoardUp can provide job photos and an itemized replacement invoice; your insurer or adjuster determines coverage and claim requirements.
Replacement after damage, break-in or emergency cover
A storefront may need replacement after a smash-and-grab, vandalism, accidental impact, cracked frontage glass or temporary board-up. Once the opening is secure, the correct glass replacement can begin.
BoardUp handles fixed storefront panes, business window glass, sidelites and transoms across Toronto and the GTA.

The frame and fixed opening matter
The glass is only one part of the storefront system. We check the aluminum frame, glazing stops, channels and adjacent fixed panels before the final pane is installed.
Storefront replacement depends on the business opening
A restaurant storefront, retail window, office frontage and plaza unit can all need different glass, different access planning and different timing. The replacement has to match the existing storefront system and keep the business protected while the work is prepared.
Restaurant frontage
Broken dining-area panes and fixed street-facing glass that affect safety and presentation.
Large fixed storefront panes
Business-front glass panels that remain fixed within the storefront framing system.
Storefront sidelites and transoms
Fixed glass beside or above an entrance that forms part of the business frontage.
What we check before the new storefront glass goes in
Before storefront glass replacement, we review the parts of the opening that control fit, safety and function. This prevents the final glass from being treated like a generic pane.
- Opening size and glass edge condition
- Aluminum frame and glazing channel condition
- Glazing stops, seals and exposed edges
- Fixed-frame and glazing-channel condition
- Glass type needed for the location
- Temporary cover or board-up condition until replacement
Final repair for the business front
The sequence is straightforward: secure the business first, confirm the replacement details, then restore the fixed storefront pane, sidelite or transom properly.
