Metal flashing and brake metal along a glass opening

New or replacement of damaged or outdated break metal, ensuring secure and functional glass surfaces.

Brake metal — the formed flashing, caps, and receptors around a glass opening — is what keeps water out and the lite locked in. When it's bent, rusted, or from a remodel that never quite lined up, the glass can't do its job.

We fabricate new brake metal and replace the damaged or outdated pieces so the glass sits secure. Storefronts, windows, and the odd opening that needs a custom break instead of a stock extrusion.
