Island Glass Company installs, rebuilds, and repairs commercial storefront doors for retail shops, restaurants, medical offices, and multi-tenant buildings across Whittier and the surrounding Southern California cities. A storefront door runs through thousands of open-close cycles a week and takes the brunt of customer traffic, so the hardware, glass, and frame all need to be spec’d for the abuse.
What we install
- Medium-stile aluminum doors — the most common commercial entry door, balanced between sight lines and hardware capacity. Takes a standard lockset and most panic devices.
- Wide-stile aluminum doors — reinforced stiles for heavy hardware, panic bars, and electric strikes on high-traffic entries.
- Narrow-stile aluminum doors — slim modern profiles for design-driven storefronts.
- Herculite-style all-glass doors — 1/2-inch or 3/4-inch tempered glass doors for high-end lobbies and showrooms (also see “All Glass Doors and Walls”).
Doors are matched to the existing storefront framing system. We carry Kawneer, YKK AP, EFCO, and CRL product lines and can cross to equivalents when we need to match a legacy installation.
Hardware
Storefront doors live or die by their hardware. We install and service:
- Closers — overhead concealed, surface-mounted, and floor-mounted
- Pivots and continuous hinges — with adjustable top pivots so a sagging door can be realigned
- Panic devices — crossbar, concealed vertical rod, and rim devices, ADA and fire code compliant
- Locksets and deadbolts — including MS1850 hookbolts and electric strikes
- Thresholds and weatherstripping — ADA-compliant thresholds and replacement weather seals
Repairs and rebuilds
Most storefront door service calls come down to a failed closer, a broken pivot, a misaligned panic device, or a cracked corner. We rebuild in place when we can and full-replace when the stiles are past rescue. Emergency board-up and glass-out service is available if a door was vandalized or broken into overnight.
