Your business. A considered entrance.

Discuss glass storefront installation, metal and aluminum systems, doors and entry systems, signage coordination, glazing options, repairs and maintenance. New locations, renovations and expansions can be reviewed with the team. Product availability and the exact scope are confirmed for your property.

Perkins’ storefront services can be discussed for retail, hospitality, healthcare and office properties. Each use has different access, operating, privacy and presentation needs. Share the intended use and whether the business is already occupied when requesting a survey.

The opening-protection requirements depend on the address, building and scope. Have the project team confirm the applicable requirements and acceptable system documentation before ordering. Glass, frame, anchorage, sizes and installation conditions need to be reviewed together; a marketing label alone is not enough.

Ask for the exact system identification and applicable approval documents, including permitted sizes, glazing, anchors and installation conditions. Florida Product Approval and Miami-Dade Product Control offer public lookup tools. The project team and relevant building department must confirm applicability to the actual opening.

Automatic doors and entry systems can be included in the scope discussion. Review suitability, availability, operators, sensors, power, locks and maintenance needs. Door operation, accessibility and egress requirements must be coordinated for the specific use and design.

Possibly, but it cannot be promised before the site and work sequence are assessed. Discuss alternate access, separation from the work, security, noise and any necessary closures. Continued operation depends on a safe, compliant plan accepted by the relevant project parties.

Review the route to the entry, landing and maneuvering space, clear opening, threshold and operable hardware as one coordinated design. Requirements vary with the configuration and project scope. Use the applicable standards and qualified project review rather than assuming an automatic door alone makes an entrance compliant.

Discuss sign locations, branding, dimensions, attachment and any lighting or electrical coordination with the storefront scope. Landlord criteria and applicable sign or design approvals may affect the result. Confirm whether sign fabrication, installation and electrical work are included in the proposal.

Contact Miami or Jupiter to discuss damaged glass, door operation, leaks or other concerns and confirm repair or maintenance availability. For urgent work, ask the office about the available response window; after-hours service is not guaranteed. Keep people away from unstable glazing or unsecured work areas.

Dimensions, system selection, glazing, hardware, access, existing conditions, approvals and fabrication all affect the proposal and schedule. Share your desired opening date early, but do not treat it as confirmed until the dependencies and installation plan have been agreed.
