FAQ
Questions about Emergency Board-Up
Can you board up a broken window?
Yes. DoorWin can temporarily secure broken house, condo, storefront and commercial windows when the opening cannot safely remain exposed before permanent glass or window repair.
Do you board up storefront windows and doors?
Yes. Storefront windows, entrance doors, door glass, sidelites and other exposed commercial openings can be boarded up when immediate replacement is not available.
Is board-up only a temporary repair?
Yes. Board-up protects the property while the correct glass, door, frame or hardware repair is measured, sourced and scheduled.
What happens after the opening has been secured?
DoorWin records measurements and damage details, then confirms whether the permanent work belongs to window glass, storefront glass, door, frame, lock or another repair service.
Can measurements for permanent repair be taken during the board-up visit?
Often yes, when the opening can be inspected safely. DoorWin records dimensions, frame condition and the likely follow-up service after the property is stabilized.
More details about Emergency Board-Up
Emergency board-up for broken windows, doors and storefronts
Emergency board-up is temporary property protection for an opening that cannot safely remain uncovered. DoorWin boards up broken residential windows, damaged doors, storefront sections, door lites, sidelites, office glass and other exposed openings across Toronto and the GTA.
A board-up panel must fit the actual opening
The method depends on what remains around the damage. A house window may need a fitted temporary cover, a cracked storefront may still have usable aluminum framing, and a break-in may leave a full doorway open. The panel, fastening points and supports must respond to those conditions.
Temporary board-up is different from permanent repair
Board-up focuses on closing off the opening. Window glass, storefront glass, door and forced-entry services complete the permanent repair. Some calls require both stages, but temporary securing remains a separate first priority.
What happens after the opening is secured
Once the property is protected, DoorWin documents whether the permanent scope is window glass, storefront glass, an entrance door, a frame section, forced-entry hardware or interior glass. This keeps the emergency work separate from the final repair while preserving a clear handoff.
