View Storefront Glass ReplacementStorefront situations we handle
This service is for commercial glass and entrance damage where the business frontage, display window or storefront door cannot be left open.
Storefront door glass broken
Entrance glass damaged with the door still needing to close, latch and lock.
Business exposed overnight
Openings that need temporary protection until final glass is ready.
Commercial entrance damage

Storefront response
Secure the business first. Repair the storefront after.
Storefront damage affects customers, staff, inventory and after-hours security. We inspect the full entrance before choosing temporary protection or a permanent repair.
Inspect the storefront system
We check the glass, aluminum frame, entrance door, lock area and surrounding panels before deciding what must be covered or replaced.
Make the damaged area safe
We remove loose hazards and protect open glass or access points so the business is secure.
Cover or board up the opening
Depending on the size and location of the damage, we install temporary protective cover, board-up or another securing solution.
Plan the permanent repair
After the business is secure, we measure the glass and arrange storefront glass replacement, or assess the entrance for door or frame repair. Permanent repairs are quoted separately from temporary board-up.
Claim records
Document the storefront before cleanup.
After a break-in, vandalism, storm or impact, photograph the point of entry, full frontage, damaged hardware and anything disturbed inside, when it is safe. If police attend, record the occurrence number.
Tell us on the first call if insurance may be involved. BoardUp can provide job photos and an itemized invoice; your insurer or adjuster determines the coverage and claim requirements.
Before and after

Storefront questions
What businesses ask before we secure the opening
How much does storefront board-up cost?
Temporary board-up installation starts at CA$399. The total depends on the opening size, number of openings, access, materials and damage. Call us or send photos for an estimate. We confirm the scope, applicable taxes and total price before work begins.
Does the board-up price include replacement glass?
No. The starting board-up price is for temporary protection, not replacement glass. Storefront glass replacement and permanent door or frame repairs are quoted separately.
Can you secure smashed storefront glass after a break-in?
Yes. We secure smashed storefront windows, commercial entrance glass and exposed business openings across Toronto and the GTA.
Do you install a temporary cover or board-up for storefront glass?
Yes. We install a temporary cover, plywood board-up or another secure barrier when the replacement glass is not ready.
Can you help if the storefront door glass is broken too?
Yes. We check whether the door closes, latches and locks, then secure the opening and plan the glass or door repair.
Do you help stores, restaurants, offices and plazas?
Yes. We secure damaged storefronts, restaurant glass, office entrances, plaza units and property-managed commercial openings.
Can the storefront glass be replaced after securing?
Yes. Once the business is secure, we measure the damaged panel and arrange fixed storefront glass replacement. Glass inside an operating entrance door uses our entry-door glass replacement service. Timing depends on the required glass, availability and the condition of the opening.
Can I text photos before dispatch?
Yes. Call or text photos of the full storefront, damaged panel and surrounding frame, together with the address or unit. Take photos only from a safe position. We review the damage and provide an estimate before work begins.
