Commercial Specialty Glass & Custom Glazing
Visionary Solutions for Savannah’s Unique Architecture
Savannah is defined by its rich history and distinct skyline, but historic charm often comes with construction challenges. Standard "out-of-the-box" windows and doors rarely fit the arched entryways, oversized openings, or complex geometries of our local buildings.
At 911 Glass & Doors, we bridge the gap between historic preservation and modern engineering. Whether you are retrofitting a 19th-century storefront or designing a cutting-edge modern office facility, we possess the fabrication capabilities and installation precision to bring your vision to life.
What Is Specialty Commercial Glass?
Specialty commercial glass includes custom glazing for commercial openings that require more than standard storefront glass. 911 Glass & Doors provides specialty glass services for businesses in Pooler, Savannah, and surrounding communities within 50 miles, including oversized glass, impact-rated glass, transaction windows, frameless entrances, decorative glass, and other custom commercial glazing systems.
Custom Glazing
Frameless All-Glass Entrances
Create a seamless transition between the street and your business. We design and install heavy-glass (Herculite) entrance systems that eliminate bulky frames, maximizing natural light and visibility.
-
The Look: Sleek, modern, and sophisticated.
-
The Build: Using thick, tempered safety glass and minimal architectural hardware (rails and patches), these doors are heavy-duty enough for high traffic but practically invisible to the eye.
Complex Geometries & Oversized Glazing
If you can design it, we can glaze it. We specialize in the difficult installations that other companies walk away from.
-
Oversized Units: Floor-to-ceiling sheets for dramatic lobbies and showrooms.
-
Arched & Odd Shapes: Custom cutting to fit historic masonry arches and non-square openings perfectly.
Glass Selection & Performance
Impact vs. Non-Impact Systems
Living on the coast means balancing aesthetics with protection. We guide you through the selection process to ensure your glass meets your needs and local building codes.
-
Impact Glass (Hurricane Rated): Essential for coastal safety. This laminated glass holds together even when shattered by flying debris, keeping wind and water out of your building during a storm.
-
Ballistic (Bullet Resistant) & Blast Glazing: Specialized multi-ply systems designed to withstand firearm projectiles and explosions for maximum security.
-
Non-Impact Glass: A cost-effective solution for interior spaces or buildings where impact ratings are not required, available in various tints and Low-E coatings for energy efficiency.
-
Patterned & Decorative Glass: Adds style and privacy without sacrificing light. Ideal for jewelry showcases, office partitions, and architectural accents where you want a unique visual texture.
Impact Rated
✅ Hurricane / Debris Proof
✅ Laminated (Stays intact)
*Ballistic & Blast Upgrades
Best for: Exteriors & Storefronts
Non-Impact Rated
