Commercial entry door glass repair and replacement
Broken glass in an operating commercial entry door can often be replaced without replacing the complete aluminum door. When the correct panel is not immediately ready, we secure the opening first and return for final glass installation.
Residential and commercial entry door glass replacement
BoardUp replaces damaged glass in residential entry doors, commercial entry doors, storefront doors and entry-door sidelites. If the frame, latch, lock, closer or hinges are also damaged, those parts are assessed separately.
Replacement in the existing door
When the door and frame remain suitable, the damaged panel can be removed and new glass installed in the existing opening. The full door does not automatically need replacement because its glass is broken.
Secure the opening when replacement is not immediate
If the correct replacement is not ready, BoardUp clears loose hazards and protects the exposed door opening. The temporary securing method depends on the door, opening and damage.

What affects door-glass replacement cost
Panel size and shape, tempered, laminated or decorative glass, frame condition, access and whether the panel must be custom ordered affect the quote. Photos help identify the door; accurate replacement may still require measurements. We provide the total price before work begins, and no additional charge is added without customer approval.
If the glass was damaged during an incident
Photograph the complete door, the close-up damage and any forced hardware before cleanup, when safe. BoardUp can provide job photos and an itemized invoice. Your insurer or adjuster determines coverage.

Entry door glass questions
What customers ask about entry door glass replacement
Can broken commercial entry-door glass be fixed?
Shattered door glass is normally replaced rather than patched. The repair can include emergency board-up, measurement and installation of a new glass panel in the existing entry door.
Can you replace only the glass in a front entry door?
Often, yes. If the door, frame and glass opening remain suitable, the damaged panel can be removed and replacement glass installed without replacing the full door.
Can commercial entry door glass be replaced the same day?
Sometimes. Same-day replacement depends on panel availability, measurements and the condition of the existing door and frame.
What if the entry door will not close or lock?
We check the frame, latch, lock, closer, hinges and door movement. Damage outside the glass panel is assessed as a separate door repair.
Can the opening be secured until replacement glass is ready?
Yes. Loose hazards can be controlled and the exposed door opening protected until the correct panel is ready.
What photos should I send before dispatch?
Send the full door, the damaged glass, both sides of the opening, the surrounding frame and the lock side.
