Broken commercial glass & aluminum doors in Oshawa: we dispatch 24/7.
Oshawa is roughly a 70-minute run from our Mississauga shop — less if a technician is already in the area — so a truck is usually on site the same day.
Emergency board-up, security and make-safe first — permanent repair scheduled after.
Glass and aluminum door systems we install in Oshawa
Most commercial glass work is one of three aluminum framing systems, and the door is chosen to suit the frame it sits in. Canuck Door Systems supplies, installs and services all of them — here is how they differ, in the order the questions usually come.
Storefront, window and curtain wall framing: the difference
Three frame families glaze most commercial elevations, and they are not interchangeable — each one carries the glass differently, spans differently and is glazed from a different side. Which one an opening needs is usually decided by the building, not by preference.

Glass & aluminum for the work Oshawa buildings do
The sectors that dominate Oshawa — advanced manufacturing and automotive, healthcare and life sciences, post-secondary education and technology — each ask something different of their glass and aluminum.
Advanced manufacturing and automotive
Plant offices put glass where supervision needs sightlines — entrance doors with vision lites, glazed office fronts facing the floor — in aluminum framing that shrugs off an industrial interior.
Healthcare and life sciences
Clinic and practice entrances in aluminum framing — barrier-free widths, closers patients can manage — plus fast glass replacement, because a taped-up door in a waiting room reads badly.
Post-secondary education and technology
Entrance systems, vestibules and interior glass doors that carry a lobby’s finish — and sealed-unit replacement when a fogged lite starts telling tenants the building is tired.
Logistics and warehousing
A distribution building’s glass is its front office: an aluminum entrance for visitors and drivers, interior lites for the dispatch office, and same-day board-up and replacement when either gets broken.
Retail and commercial services
The storefront is the shop: aluminum-framed entrances and display glazing, same-day board-up after a break-in, and replacement glass measured and set without closing the store for long.
Schools & institutions
School and campus doors take generations of traffic: aluminum entrances rebuilt rather than replaced, wired and safety glazing matched when a lite breaks, hardware swapped without losing the frame.

Common questions about commercial glass & aluminum doors
Do you repair glass doors and windows you did not install?
Yes, and it is a large share of what we do. We service commercial glass doors, storefronts, aluminum windows and their hardware regardless of who supplied them — closers, pivots, patch fittings, rollers, locks, thresholds and broken glass — and we run emergency service around the clock, including board-up to make an opening safe the same night.
Can a commercial glass or aluminum entrance be fire-rated?
A standard aluminum entrance cannot carry a fire label — aluminum softens well below the temperature a rated assembly has to survive. Where an opening needs a rating we put a labelled hollow-metal or rated wood assembly in it instead, with rated vision glazing if the opening still has to be seen through. Tell us the rating the drawings call for and we will specify to it rather than glaze around it.
What is commercial-grade glass?
It is not one product. "Commercial grade" describes glass processed to meet the code and the duty of the opening rather than ordinary window glass: tempered or laminated where the Ontario Building Code calls for safety glazing, certified to CAN/CGSB-12.1, and sealed into an insulating unit for anything exterior. The difference from residential glass is less the glass itself than the fact that the make-up has to be specified and documented per opening.
