Aluminum storefront systems, entrance doors, transoms and glass in Brooklyn for restaurants, retail, offices and building lobbies, fabricated at our Staten Island shop and installed by our own crews, with the DOB and Landmarks filings prepared by us.
In short: Alex Glass Construction fabricates, installs, replaces and repairs commercial storefronts in Brooklyn: thermally broken aluminum storefront systems in any color, narrow, medium and wide stile entrance doors with closers, locks and panic hardware, transoms and sidelites, laminated and tempered glass, automatic and frameless glass doors. We survey, draw the storefront for the landlord, the architect and the DOB, fabricate at our Staten Island shop and install at night or in a day where the business cannot close. Storefront glass replacement is usually same week. Call 929-235-1233 or request a free quote.
Brooklyn has more retail frontage than any borough and we have built on most of its avenues: a full-frontage custom storefront opposite Kings Plaza on Flatbush Avenue, a black storefront with an ACM facade above it further up Flatbush, a complete two-story facade on Coney Island Avenue, a black aluminum lobby storefront on Franklin Avenue, storefront and ribbed metal panels on Herkimer Street, and a Kawneer corner storefront on Flatlands Avenue. Building lobbies on new rentals in Bushwick and Prospect Lefferts Gardens are storefront work too.
The same crew that builds the storefront repairs it: doors that drag on Nostrand Avenue, a broken insulated unit on 5th Avenue, a closer on Bedford Avenue. Storefront glass is usually replaced within the week; a door is adjusted the same day.
Commercial corridors: Flatbush Avenue, Coney Island Avenue, Nostrand Avenue, 5th Avenue, Bedford Avenue, Fulton Street, Atlantic Avenue, Kings Highway, 86th Street, 13th Avenue, Avenue U, Myrtle Avenue, Franklin Avenue.
Neighborhoods: Williamsburg, Greenpoint, Bushwick, Clinton Hill, Fort Greene, Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, Park Slope, Prospect Heights, Crown Heights, Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn Heights, Flatbush, Midwood, Borough Park, Bay Ridge, Bensonhurst, Gravesend, Sheepshead Bay, Manhattan Beach, Mill Basin.
A new storefront files through the Department of Buildings with the architect of record and we supply the shop drawings; in the Brooklyn historic districts (Park Slope, Fort Greene, Cobble Hill, Brooklyn Heights, Bedford-Stuyvesant and others) the Landmarks Preservation Commission reviews the storefront and we prepare that submission. Glass replacement and door repair need no permit. We schedule overnight or in a day where the business cannot close, and secure the opening at the end of every shift.
