Broken commercial glass & aluminum doors in Uxbridge: we dispatch 24/7.
Uxbridge is roughly a 65-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 Uxbridge
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 Uxbridge buildings do
The sectors that dominate Uxbridge — advanced manufacturing, specialized packaging, food processing — each ask something different of their glass and aluminum.
Advanced manufacturing
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.
Food processing
Entrances and glazing for the office side of processing plants — and fast board-up and replacement, because a broken lite in a food or pharma building cannot wait for next week.
Retail
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.
Healthcare
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.
Offices & business parks
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.
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
How strong is storefront glass?
Tempered glass is roughly four times the strength of the same thickness of ordinary annealed glass, and when it does fail it breaks into small blunt pieces rather than shards. That is a safety property, not a security one: tempered glass still comes out of the frame. Where the concern is forced entry or holding the glass in place after impact, the answer is laminated glass — two lites bonded to a plastic interlayer — or a security film applied to the glass already in the opening.
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.
