Office & Retail Renovation in Van Nuys
Office and retail remodeling in Van Nuys, with low-e storefront glazing, safety glass and wear-rated finishes chosen for inland sun and daily wear.
Hard inland sun pours through a shop window and fades whatever sits behind it. For a Van Nuys storefront, Fernhill Builders specifies low-e coated glazing in thermally broken aluminum frames, with tempered panes at doors and low sections. The glass cuts heat gain, shields stock and flooring from fading, and meets the safety glazing rules where people can walk into it.
Glass that handles the sun
A low-e coating on the inside face of the pane turns back much of the heat and ultraviolet light before it reaches the room. The thermal break in the frame keeps the aluminum from carrying that heat across. Where a pane sits near a door or close to the floor, tempered or laminated glass is used, since it breaks into small pieces or holds together on impact. The glass type is named for each opening in the scope, so a front window and a side door do not share one default.
Floors and walls built for wear
Inside, finishes are picked for the wear they will take. Commercial-grade vinyl plank or sealed concrete handles carts, dollies and spills without scuffing through. Walls along corridors and stock rooms can use impact-resistant board, and a rubber base protects the bottom edge from mop buckets. Sunlit areas, where a counter or wall would otherwise bleach, get a finish that does not yellow, so a bright counter stays the same color beside the window. Samples are held up against the glass before anything is ordered.

Office & Retail Renovation in Van Nuys: common questions
It can, in phases. One side of the floor stays open with a protected route to the entrance while the other side is demolished and rebuilt. The phases are agreed before the work starts, and we point out the days when glass or flooring will make the space hard to use.
Yes. We replace storefront glass, doors and frames, and we specify low-e glazing for sunny exposures. Tempered or rated panes go where the code asks for them. Each opening gets its own glass type, and the choices are listed in the written scope.
Our office handles it. Van Nuys is a City of Los Angeles neighborhood, so the set is sent to LADBS, and we are present when inspectors visit. Corrections from the plan checker come to us.
