Commercial Door, Frame & Glass Replacement Services in the GTA

Direct replacement of worn or failed commercial doors in offices, plazas, warehouses and condo common areas. Every frame is checked for square, anchor condition and base rust so the spec can say plainly which frames are reused. Existing hardware is transferred or upgraded to ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, handing and preps are matched, and new weatherstrip and thresholds go on exterior doors. Swaps run after hours in occupied buildings, and portfolio work is grouped into one written spec with a price range per opening for capital planning. We direct-bill major commercial property insurance claims.

A portfolio PM with four office buildings along Highway 401 had a backlog of worn doors. We grouped them by type in one written spec, phased swaps over two budget quarters after hours, and door work orders dropped right after the first phase.

Replacement of the storefront door leaf without replacing the whole storefront. We check frame square, offset pivot or butt hinge prep and profile compatibility with Kawneer, Vistawall and similar framing, then fabricate a full-lite aluminum leaf with tempered safety glass to fit the existing opening. The Adams Rite deadlock, pulls and closer are transferred or upgraded, and a new threshold and door sweep go in where the old ones have worn. Swaps happen before opening hours, so the shop never loses a selling day. Fabrication lead time plus a half-day swap.

A Leslieville cafe owner had a sagging storefront door but a perfectly good frame. We fabricated a new full-lite leaf to the existing opening, and the swap was done before the cafe opened, about two weeks from measure to install.

Hollow metal direct swaps for warehouses, plazas, plants and service corridors where the frame is sound but the door is finished. Exterior doors move to 16-gauge galvannealed steel with polyurethane insulated cores, interior doors to prime-coat, and every leaf is prepped to match existing hinge reinforcement and strike locations so hardware transfers cleanly. New door sweeps, thermal thresholds and weatherstrip stop the drafts. We source Steelcraft and Ceco Door leaves and schedule swaps between shifts so production never stops. Install typically 7-10 business days from sign-off.

A Meadowvale plant had three rusted steel doors letting winter drafts into the shipping office. Every frame checked out square, so we swapped in galvanized hollow metal leaves with new sweeps and thresholds between shifts. The drafts are gone.

Frames are behind a lot of door problems: jambs bent by forklifts, bases rusted through by salt, anchors pulled loose from drywall or masonry. We choose retrofit frames or full removal based on the wall type and rating, then rehang the existing door if it is sound or supply a new leaf. Welded masonry frames are grouted and anchored, knockdown drywall frames use proper jamb and base anchors, and strike reinforcement is set for the hardware. Rated frames keep their label. Written CAD spec within 2 business days, install typically 7-14 business days from sign-off.

An Etobicoke industrial unit had a frame bent so badly by a forklift that the door would not latch. We cut it out, set a new welded hollow metal frame and hung a new door, and the opening is square again.

Broken, cracked or non-compliant glass doors and door lites replaced with the right safety glass for the opening. We explain tempered versus laminated in plain terms, confirm CAN/CGSB-12.1 safety glazing at doors and sidelites, and check the etch label on every lite. Low-E sealed IGUs go where insulation matters. Glazing stops, gaskets and continuous hinges are replaced where they have failed, and glass lead times are quoted honestly up front. We coordinate insurance paperwork and direct-bill major commercial property insurance claims. Glass lead time plus a one-day install.

A Financial District office PM had a cracked lobby glass door. We replaced it with laminated safety glass, explained why laminated suited a busy lobby better than tempered, and the replacement arrived exactly on the lead time we quoted.
