Storefront glass replacement & installation in Tampa

A broken storefront panel leaves your business exposed and sends the wrong message to customers. We secure the opening, match the glass to your existing storefront system, and set the new panel with as little downtime as possible.

A&P Glass Solutions replaces storefront glass across Tampa Bay: single-pane and insulated panels in aluminum frames, sidelights flanking entry doors, and transom glass above doorways. Commercial storefronts typically use tempered glass in aluminum frames with a door and sidelight configuration, and we match the specification already in place.

We identify the storefront manufacturer and series, measure the existing glass thickness and type, and order a matching replacement. We work with the standard commercial framing systems from Kawneer, YKK AP, and Oldcastle, as well as older systems from manufacturers that have been acquired or discontinued. If the glass had a specific tint or coating, we match it as closely as possible so the new panel does not stand out.

If the opening cannot stay exposed while the glass is sourced, we install a board-up panel to keep the space secure and weather-tight. On installation day we pre-stage materials, remove the broken panel, clean the frame, and set the new glass in a single continuous workflow.

Large storefront panels are heavy and unforgiving of mistakes. We work with professional-grade suction lifters and transport racks, and our crew has the hands-on experience to move and set oversized glass safely.

From a broken panel to a finished storefront

A glass emergency on a commercial property is any situation where a broken panel leaves merchandise, equipment, or the interior exposed. The first step is securing the opening. The second is sourcing glass that matches the rest of the installation. The third is setting it cleanly so the storefront looks like nothing happened.

  • Site visit, measurements, and storefront system identification
  • Board-up panel if the opening cannot stay exposed
  • Glass sourced to match tint, thickness, and frame profile
  • Installation in a single continuous workflow
  • Clean-up, photos, and invoice the same day

Storefront system installation for tenant buildouts

Beyond replacing broken panels, we install full storefront systems for new tenant buildouts: aluminum framing, glass panels, sidelights, transoms, and the entry door. We work with the standard commercial framing systems from Kawneer, YKK AP, and Oldcastle.

Multi-day installations are broken into phases. We can complete one section per day, clean up at the end of each work session, and give you a daily update on progress and any adjustments to the schedule.

FAQ

Storefront Glass Questions

Once the glass is sourced (typically 3-7 business days for custom orders), installation usually takes half a day. Storefronts and multi-panel projects may take a full day. We always provide a clear timeline upfront.
In most cases, yes. We identify the storefront manufacturer and series, measure the existing glass thickness and type, and order a matching replacement. For older systems where the manufacturer no longer exists, we measure the frame channel dimensions and source glass that fits the existing profile.
Tempered glass shatters into small rounded pieces when it breaks, but the opening is then exposed. Laminated glass has a plastic interlayer that holds the fragments in place, so the panel stays in the frame even after impact. For storefronts where security is a concern, laminated glass provides much better intrusion resistance.
Usually not. We can do the removal and installation in sections so you never have a fully open facade, and we schedule around your peak hours whenever possible. If an opening has to stay unsecured, we install a board-up panel while we work.
We inspect the framing as part of every estimate. If we find corrosion or structural weakness, we let you know before ordering glass. We can handle minor frame repairs ourselves or coordinate with a licensed contractor for more extensive structural work.
