Stages of Glass Door installation
Let’s take a look at how our glass door company performs professional installation in stages:

#1 Preparation for the work:
Before we start the professional door installation, we carefully assess the installation site and measure all the necessary dimensions. We then provide the proper safety equipment and tools. This is very important to ensure the quality of work and the safety of our employees, especially when installing exterior glass structures on high floors.

#2 Removal of old doors:
If there are old doors, we carefully remove them. At the same time, our specialists will carefully remove everything so that the frame and ceiling remain intact. This will ensure a clean and smooth installation of the new door.

#3 Installation of the frame:
We start by installing the door frame, which is usually made of aluminum or other durable material. The frame needs to be level and stable, so we carefully measure and attach it to the walls properly.

#4 Installation of glass panels:
After the frame is attached, we carefully install the glass panels. This process requires precision and care to avoid damaging the glass. After that, we make sure that the panels are properly aligned and securely fastened.

#5 Setting up and checking:
After installing the glass panels, we customize the door. That is, we have to make sure that they open and close freely. We also check if there are any deflections or gaps between the panels and the frame.

#6 Final Compliance:
The last step of a professional door installation is the final attachment of trim pieces and hanging of handles and closing mechanisms. We make sure that all doors work properly and look good. As a result, we are happy to have provided you with the best solution and quality services!

Quality of materials for a Custom Glass Door
In addition to the quality of the glass itself, other materials play an important role in the door installation. Their reliability and compliance with modern standards guarantee the durability, functionality, and aesthetic appearance of the door. First, the frame profile is made of aluminum, PVC, or wood. Its quality determines the structural rigidity, resistance to deformation, and aesthetic appearance. Secondly, the hardware. Hinges, handles, closers, and other elements must be of high quality. Most often, we make fittings from brass, stainless steel, or aluminum. This guarantees smooth door movement, corrosion resistance, and durability.
Seals also play an important role in custom glass doors. They ensure a tight fit of the door leaf to the frame. In turn, this guarantees sound and heat insulation. That is why seals must be resistant to deformation and temperature changes. Finally, the screws, dowels, and other fasteners should correspond to the type of wall material and the weight of the door leaf.

Is a modern Glass Entry Door safe?
In the past, glass door manufacturing technologies were not the most advanced and the doors were too fragile, but nowadays a lot has changed. Thanks to the latest methods of thermal hardening, the once fragile material has become much more durable and it is not so easy to break them. Even if the door is damaged, if the tempered glass does break, there is no risk of injury. Tempered glass, which our glass door company uses in the production of strong mechanical impacts crumbles into small shards. They are not able to seriously traumatize a person.
There is an even safer method of manufacturing doors, thanks to which they become even stronger and more reliable. This technology is called triplex. In the production of such doors, two glass panels are used, with a polymer insert serving as a spacer between them. Therefore, the installation of glass doors is completely safe for residential and commercial buildings.

Conclusion
As a result, doors with glass are a very stylish solution. But it also brings functionality and energy efficiency to your building. So contact WRNYC for quality glass door installation and be sure of the result. We guarantee that we will do everything quickly, efficiently, and reliably!
