A damaged storefront affects more than the appearance of your business. It can reduce security, interrupt daily operations, expose the building to weather, and create safety concerns for customers and employees. Our experienced commercial glazing team provides custom storefront glass replacement solutions throughout New York City and the Tri-State Area, helping businesses restore a clean, professional, and secure entrance.
Professional Storefront Glass Replacement in New York City
Storefront glass is one of the most visible architectural features of any commercial property. Large glass panels help attract customers, maximize natural light, showcase merchandise, and create a welcoming appearance. When storefront glass becomes damaged or reaches the end of its service life, replacing it helps maintain the safety, appearance, and functionality of the entire storefront system.
Vitrum Glass & Mirror replaces storefront glass for existing buildings, business renovations, tenant improvements, property upgrades, and emergency situations. Every replacement begins with accurate field measurements and a careful inspection of the aluminum framing, glazing materials, entrance doors, and surrounding hardware to ensure the new glass integrates correctly with the existing storefront.

Broken Storefront Glass Replacement
Broken storefront glass should be replaced as quickly as possible to protect your business, employees, customers, and property. Cracked or shattered glass can create safety hazards while exposing the interior of the building to weather, vandalism, and unauthorized entry.
Our team removes damaged glass, carefully inspects the surrounding aluminum storefront system, and installs new commercial-grade safety glass that meets the project's structural and visual requirements. Every replacement is completed with attention to proper glazing methods, alignment, and long-term durability.
Display Window Replacement
Storefront display windows help businesses showcase products and create an attractive first impression. Damaged display glass can reduce visibility, negatively affect curb appeal, and interfere with customer experience.
Vitrum Glass & Mirror replaces display windows for retail stores, boutiques, restaurants, pharmacies, salons, offices, shopping centers, and commercial buildings. We carefully measure each opening to ensure the new glass panel fits correctly within the existing storefront framing while maintaining a clean, professional appearance.
Commercial Storefront Door Glass Replacement
Storefront entrance doors experience constant daily use and may eventually require replacement due to broken glass, accidental impact, vandalism, or general wear. We replace glass in aluminum storefront doors, frameless glass doors, pivot doors, swing doors, and complete commercial entrance systems.
During every replacement project, we also inspect commercial door hardware, including hinges, pivots, locks, panic devices, closers, handles, thresholds, and patch fittings. Proper hardware alignment helps maintain smooth operation, security, and accessibility.
Aluminum Storefront System Replacement
In some situations, the storefront framing may also require replacement. Bent aluminum, structural damage, severe corrosion, or outdated storefront systems can affect the installation and long-term performance of replacement glass.
We install complete aluminum storefront systems with fixed glass panels, entrance doors, sidelites, transoms, and custom commercial glazing configurations. Available finishes include clear anodized, dark bronze, black, and other architectural options to complement the building's design.
Storefront Glass Types
Choosing the right replacement glass helps improve safety, energy efficiency, visibility, and overall storefront performance.
