Upgrade Your Entrance to a Modern Standard
Your entrance door is the physical handshake of your business. A heavy, outdated, or malfunctioning door frustrates customers before they even enter. Whether you are renovating an office, opening a new retail location, or upgrading for accessibility, Installix specializes in commercial glass door installation. From sleek frameless glass herculite doors to robust aluminum storefront entries, we install systems that combine security, durability, and modern aesthetics.
Door Systems We Install
Frameless Glass Doors (Herculite)
The gold standard for modern offices and malls. These doors rely on heavy 10mm or 12mm tempered glass for structure, using minimal top and bottom rails or patch fittings. They maximize light and transparency.
Aluminum Storefront Doors
The workhorse of retail. These framed doors (narrow, medium, or wide stile) are durable, weather-resistant, and designed for high-traffic exterior applications.
The Solution: Complete Entrance Packages
We don't just hang the door; we handle the entire opening. This includes the pivots/hinges, closers, handles, and locks. We ensure the door swings correctly, latches securely, and meets all Ontario Building Code requirements for egress and accessibility (AODA).
Why Choose Installix?
- Hardware Expertise: We spec the right closers (floor vs. overhead) for the weight of your door to prevent slamming.
- Custom Fabrication: We can provide custom handles, logos etched onto glass, and specific security hardware.
- Safety Glazing: All our installations use Certified Tempered Safety Glass.
Technical Specifications
| Component | Details |
|---|---|
| Glass | 10mm (3/8") or 12mm (1/2") Tempered Glass. Clear, Starphire (Low-Iron), or Frosted. |

Our Process: From Design to Doorway
Step 1: Consultation & Spec
We determine the traffic flow and aesthetic needs. We measure the opening to check for squareness and floor level.
Step 2: Fabrication
The glass is tempered and drilled for hardware. This process cannot be reversed, so accuracy is paramount.
Step 3: Installation
We install the pivots/hinges, hang the heavy glass door, adjust the closing speed and latching action, and install pull handles.
Pricing Factors
- Hardware Selection: High-end designer handles and hydraulic patch fittings increase cost.
- Glass Thickness: 1/2" glass is standard for frameless, but heavier and costlier than 3/8".
- Existing Conditions: Retrofitting a frameless door into a rough opening may require additional metal cladding work.
