The Challenge

Solving Glass Access Challenges

A common misconception is that a glazier can simply arrive on-site and cut a hole in an existing glass sliding door.

In modern New Farm homes, patio doors are made from toughened safety glass. It is physically impossible to cut toughened glass once processed.

Attempting to do so will cause the entire panel to shatter instantly into thousands of granular pieces, creating a safety hazard and a costly mess.

Our Solution

Complete Panel Replacement

We handle a complete panel replacement process. We measure your door, then manufacture a brand-new panel of toughened safety glass with the pet door aperture pre-cut.

This ensures the structural integrity remains compromised and guarantees compliance with AS1288 Australian Standards.

We swap the panels seamlessly, ensuring the new glass matches your existing tint and thickness perfectly.

From Measure to Installation: How We Work

Our process is designed to be seamless and minimally intrusive to your daily life.

Consultation

We visit your home to assess the glass type (float or toughened) and take precise laser measurements.

Fabrication

Your new glass is custom-cut with the pet door hole, then processed through a high-heat tempering furnace.

Professional Installation

Our glaziers remove the old panel, clean the frame/tracks, and install the new panel with pet door pre-fitted.

Final Inspection

We adjust rollers for a smooth glide, test locks, and ensure the finish is factory-standard before cleanup.

AS1288 Safety Glass Standards

Safety is our non-negotiable priority. All our installations strictly adhere to AS1288-2006 Glass in Buildings Standards.

Any glass door is classified as a 'Human Impact Safety Zone'. Therefore, when we replace a glass panel to accommodate a pet door, we guarantee the use of Grade A Toughened Safety Glass.

This ensures that if the glass were ever to break, it would crumble into small, safe granules rather than jagged shards. We provide certification on our work, giving you peace of mind that your home remains compliant and safe.

Glazing Considerations for New Farm, Teneriffe, and Newstead

Working in the 4005 and 4006 postcodes presents specific environmental challenges. Close proximity to the Brisbane River means homes are subject to higher salt content in the air and strong river breezes.

We use high-grade aluminium and quality seals to prevent corrosion and draft issues common in these riverside suburbs.

Body Corporate Specialists

Well-versed in bylaws for buildings like the Woolstores or Cutters Landing. We provide necessary compliance documents and acoustic-rated glass to satisfy body corporate requirements.

Heritage & Character Homes

For owners of heritage-listed Post-war homes or Queenslanders, we ensure new pet door framing compliments the traditional timber joinery, maintaining architectural character.

Maintenance and Care for Long-Lasting Performance

Regular Cleaning

Clean the glass with non-abrasive cleaner to remove nose prints. Wipe down the flap and aluminium frame with warm soapy water periodically.

Track Maintenance

If your door is a sliding unit, keep the bottom tracks free of pet hair and debris to ensure the rolling mechanism functions perfectly.

Professional Lubrication

A quick spray of silicone lubricant on the tracks (never oil) will keep the door gliding effortlessly for years.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you cut a hole in my existing glass door?

No, most doors use toughened glass which shatters if cut. We must replace the glass panel with a factory-tempered one containing the pre-cut aperture.

What happens to my old glass?

We can leave the original glass with you to reinstall if you move out (great for renters) or we can dispose of it for you.

Do you sell the pet doors?

Yes, we commonly install and supply Transcat, Petway, and SureFlap microchip doors.

How long does it take?

Usually 5-7 working days to manufacture the toughened glass before we can arrive for installation.

Are the doors secure?

The glass is just as strong as your original door, and the pet doors feature internal locking covers for when you are away.
