Commercial Glazing — Dallas–Fort Worth
High-Rise Glazing in Dallas, TX
High-rise glazing in Dallas, TX is work we take up to eight stories — that is the ceiling our insurance covers, and we would rather say so in the first sentence than walk a bid we cannot finish. Above eight floors you want a glazier carrying swing-stage and rigging coverage we do not.
At eight and below — mid-rise office, hotel, medical office, multifamily podium — we measure, specify, order, and install the package, and we hold the warranty afterward.
5.08 Google reviewsWhat we install up to eight stories
Curtain wall
Stick-built aluminum curtain wall carrying its own weight back to the floor slabs, glazed with insulated units. The system most mid-rise office and hotel elevations are built from.
Window wall
Floor-to-slab units set between structural floors — common on multifamily podium and hotel towers, and faster to install than curtain wall on a repeating floor plate.
Storefront at grade
The first two floors of most towers are a storefront system, not curtain wall: entrances, lobby glazing, and retail bays with heavier framing and door hardware.
Interior glass
Office fronts, conference room walls, and demountable partitions on the floors above — usually the same package, awarded to the same glazier.
Why the eight-story limit is stated up front
Elevated glazing is priced and insured by height. Past eight floors the access method changes — swing stages, davits, and rigging — and so does the coverage a general contractor needs to see on a certificate. Carrying a limit we can actually document is worth more to a GC than a bid that unravels at prequal.
We build to the aluminum framing standards the specification will name — AAMA performance grades for air, water, and structural loading, ASTM test methods for the glazing units, and the IBC requirements enforced by the authority having jurisdiction. Glass comes from Guardian, ordered to the approved shop drawings.
Who you are actually hiring
Donavon Wheeler runs the DFW operation out of Corinth, about 40 minutes from downtown Dallas. Infinity is family-owned with 30+ years of commercial glazing behind it — storefronts, curtain walls, and hotel fit-outs — built in Stockton, California. The photographs below are one of those jobs: a four-storey Tru by Hilton, glazed top to bottom — punched window openings across the guest floors and the storefront package at grade. It is a California project, not a Texas one; the Dallas–Fort Worth branch is new. Here, as there, our team measures every opening on site and custom-orders the glass to fit.
High-rise glazing questions we get from Dallas GCs
How many stories will you glaze on a Dallas high-rise?
Eight. That is the ceiling our insurance covers for elevated glazing work, and we hold to it — we would rather tell you in the first conversation than pull off a job halfway through. Eight stories and below covers most mid-rise office, hotel, medical office, and multifamily podium work.
What does Infinity self-perform versus coordinate on a tower?
One company owns the job: we measure, specify the glass, order it, install it, and handle the warranty. You get one point of contact from shop drawings through punch, rather than being handed between a supplier, an installer, and a service company when something needs attention.
Do you have a project list and insurance certificate for prequal?
We are fully insured. Our commercial project history is the original Stockton, California operation — 30+ years of storefronts, curtain walls, and hotel fit-outs. Tell us what your prequal requires and we will answer it directly.
How far ahead should we order glass for a high-rise package?
Build the schedule around the glass, not the other way around: standard insulated units, laminated safety glass, custom aluminum framing, fritted or specialty patterned glass and structural glass each carry their own lead time.
Working a scope that is not a tower? Our commercial glazing services page covers storefronts and window wall at grade, glass partition walls covers interior office fronts, and the DFW commercial glazing procurement guide has lead times, prequal checklists, and what drives price.
