Repair a problem, replace a tired assembly, or create a made-to-measure feature for a house, townhouse, condominium, apartment building, renovation, or new home.
Show us the cracked pane, cloudy sealed unit, stubborn patio door, or source of water entry. Or share the design goal for a frameless shower, transparent stair guard, mirrored wall, wine enclosure, or light-filled canopy.
AMS reviews the glass, frame, seals, hardware, movement, and surrounding construction together so homeowners, condominium teams, renovators, and builders can choose the most sensible repair, replacement, or new installation.
A failed component does not always mean the entire window must be removed. We inspect the existing assembly and identify whether the pane, insulated glass unit, seal, hardware, or complete system needs attention.
Installation and service for frequently used glass openings, with attention to smooth travel, secure closure, weather protection, and the adjacent frame.
Existing exterior assemblies can be renewed when panels, hardware, or supports are damaged, dated, or corroded, subject to the condition and design of the system.
Each enclosure is measured around the actual walls, opening geometry, door movement, fixed panels, and hardware positions before fabrication.
Transparent guards can open sightlines on stairs, decks, terraces, and balconies while still being planned as a safety-critical building element.
Made-to-measure glass can add utility, light, and a considered finish to rooms throughout the property.
Glass-and-aluminum entrance features and custom-cut exterior panes are proportioned to the building, whether they form part of a new design or a selective repair.
Multiple glass elements can be coordinated with construction milestones so measurements, fabrication, hardware selections, and installation occur at the appropriate stages.
For suite programs, renovations, or new builds, ask AMS to consolidate field measurements, material choices, fabrication, access, and installation dates while respecting residents and adjacent trades.

Tempered glass is heat-treated and designed to break into smaller pieces if it fails. Laminated glass includes an interlayer that helps retain broken fragments. Location, application, design, and applicable requirements determine which product is suitable.
Moisture or haze inside a double-glazed unit usually indicates a failed perimeter seal. Many frames can accept a replacement insulated glass unit, although the frame, sash, drainage, and hardware should first be checked.
Both can be attractive and durable. Framed systems use more surrounding metal, while frameless designs rely on heavier glass and carefully placed hardware. Room geometry, budget, maintenance preference, and the desired visual effect guide the decision.
Cost changes with measurements, glass specification, mounting method, posts or base channels, finish, access, stairs, corners, fabrication, and labour. Guard design must also suit the project and applicable Ontario building requirements.
Width, height, panel count, glass selection, door configuration, specialty fabrication, hardware, wall conditions, site access, and removal of an existing enclosure can all affect the proposal.
