Looking for a Commercial Glass and Storefront Contractor in Queens?

Liberty Door Supply is a commercial glass and aluminum storefront contractor serving Queens and all five New York City boroughs. We supply, fabricate, and install storefront systems, ADA automatic entry doors, rolling security gates, curtain wall sections, glass partitions, and commercial door hardware. We are not a locksmith. We are a metal and glass fabrication and installation company built for commercial buildings.

What kinds of commercial buildings in Queens need this work most often?

Queens has one of the most varied building stocks in the city. That variety drives a wide range of storefront and glazing projects.

• Retail corridors on Jamaica Avenue, Roosevelt Avenue, and Steinway Street have older aluminum storefronts that are past their service life. We replace full framing systems and rehang doors.
• Mixed-use buildings in Long Island City and Astoria often require curtain wall sections, glass facades, and new lobby entries that meet current NYC DOB energy and structural codes.
• Industrial and warehouse properties in Maspeth, College Point, and Springfield Gardens frequently need heavy-duty aluminum hollow metal door frames, commercial panic hardware, and rolling security gates.
• Medical offices, urgent care centers, and clinics throughout Jackson Heights and Flushing call us for ADA-compliant automatic sliding and swinging door systems with the correct activation timing under NYC Building Code requirements.
• Grocery stores and bodegas borough-wide need rolling security gates that hold up to daily operation. We install and replace both interior and exterior roll-down gates built from galvanized steel or aluminum slat systems.

If your building is in Queens and you have a glazing or aluminum framing need, it falls within our scope.

What specific systems and hardware does Liberty Door Supply install on Queens projects?

We work with proven commercial systems. Here is what shows up most on Queens jobs.

Aluminum storefront framing: We fabricate with Kawneer 350 and 500 series, YKK AP AA3850 and IG3 series, and Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope Tubelite framing. Framing selection depends on opening span, wind load requirements, and building facade conditions. All systems are thermally broken where energy code compliance is required.

ADA automatic door operators: We install ASSA ABLOY Besam, Stanley Access Technologies, and Horton Automatics operators on swinging and sliding storefront entries. We handle the full scope: framing, glazing, operator, and activation mat or push-plate hardware. We coordinate DOB filing and provide the documentation GCs and property managers need for sign-off.

Commercial door hardware: We supply and install Von Duprin 98/99 series and 33A series panic devices, LCN 4040XP and 1461 series door closers, Rixson and Dorma overhead concealed closers, and Rockwood and Trimco push and pull hardware. Every hardware set is spec'd to match door weight, frequency of use, and fire-rating requirements where applicable.

Rolling security gates: We install interior and exterior roll-down gates in perforated aluminum, solid steel, and grille configurations. Motor operators from Cookson, Cornell, and Wayne Dalton handle high-cycle commercial applications. Manual override is standard on every motorized installation.

Glass partitions and railings: We install frameless and semi-frameless interior glass partition systems and structural glass railings in office lobbies, retail buildouts, and mixed-use ground floors across Queens.

How does Liberty Door Supply respond to urgent storefront damage in Queens?

Broken storefront glass is a building security and liability issue. We treat it that way.

When a storefront panel, door glass, or sidelite is broken, our first step is emergency board-up to secure the opening. We use exterior-grade plywood anchored directly to the aluminum frame, not taped to the glass edge. That keeps the opening weather-tight and the frame undamaged for replacement.

We follow board-up with a full site measure and glass order. Standard commercial storefront glass is tempered safety glass or laminated safety glass depending on code and location. Glass for curtain wall sections is typically insulated and may require low-E coatings to match the existing facade. We order from local fabricators so lead times stay short.

Queens property managers and GCs call us because we know the borough's building types, we carry the hardware in stock, and we do not hand off emergency calls to a subcontractor. The crew that boards up the opening is the same crew that completes the permanent installation.

For Queens projects and emergency response across all five boroughs, call Liberty Door Supply at (347) 928-7349. We are ready to quote, schedule, or respond same day when the situation calls for it.
