Broken glass needs dealing with now: it’s a safety risk, a security risk and, for a business, a reason to stay shut. 24/7 Glazing is a family-owned Perth glazier based in Malaga. Call 08 6150 8090 and we can make the opening safe, board it up if the replacement has to be made to order, and replace the glass.
Malaga is the City of Swan’s major industrial and commercial precinct, with 2,090 registered businesses and some 16,000 workers across 660 ha (City of Swan). That means a lot of shopfronts, offices, showrooms and workshop doors. We can repair glass for businesses in the precinct and for homes in the suburbs around it, including Ballajura, Noranda, Dianella, Beechboro, Mirrabooka, Koondoola, Bennett Springs and Whiteman.

A broken shopfront or office window in Malaga is a business problem as much as a glass problem. The aim is to get you secure and trading again.
Make it safe
First we can clear the broken glass and secure the opening so staff and customers aren’t at risk.
Secure it
If the replacement pane is a standard size we can fit it on the spot. Larger or specialised glass has to be cut or made to order, so we’ll board up the opening in the meantime.
Replace it properly
Shopfronts, doors and low-level glass are places where AS 1288, the Australian Standard for glass in buildings, requires safety glass because of the risk of human impact (WFAANZ). We’ll replace like with like, or with the glass the location requires.
Call us
Call 08 6150 8090 and tell us what’s broken, how big it is and where it is. That helps us bring the right materials.
Glass tends to break at the worst time. Here’s what to do before the glazier arrives.
Keep people away
Keep children, pets and staff away from the area. Broken glass travels further than you think, and cracked panes still in the frame can fall.
Don’t pull at loose glass
Leave loose shards in the frame for us to remove. If you must pick up pieces, wear solid shoes and heavy gloves.
Take photos
Photograph the damage before anything is moved. You’ll need them for an insurance claim.
Call the right people
If it’s a break-in in progress or there’s an immediate threat, call 000. For storm damage, the SES is on 132 500 (DFES). For the glass, call us on 08 6150 8090.
Not every pane can be replaced the same day. When it can’t, boarding up keeps the building secure until it can.
When boarding is needed
Large panes, toughened glass and double glazed units are made to order. Toughened glass in particular can’t be cut after it’s made, so the replacement has to be ordered to size.
What we can do
We can remove the remaining broken glass, clean up the area and fit a secure temporary board over the opening.
Then the permanent fix
We’ll measure for the replacement at the same visit and come back to fit it when it’s ready.
Weather
A boarded opening keeps out rain and wind as well as intruders, which matters most between May and September, when Perth gets most of its rain.
Samuele Caspani - Managing Director
Commercial glass comes in bigger sizes and stricter specifications than most home windows.
Shopfronts and showroom windows
Large panes that need safety glass under AS 1288. We can board up, measure and replace them.
Glass doors
Entry doors, sliding doors and frameless glass doors take the most knocks. Glass in doors must be safety glass, toughened or laminated.
Office and partition glass
Broken office windows and internal glass partitions can be replaced to match. See our Glass Office Partitions page for more.
Upgrading while you’re at it
If the glass has to be replaced anyway, it can be a chance to upgrade: laminated glass for security, or double glazing for heat and noise. See our Double Glazed Windows and Doors In Malaga WA page.
From our Malaga base we can reach the suburbs around it for broken windows, doors and shower screens.
Windows
Broken bedroom, living room and kitchen windows, including double glazed units, which have to be made to order.
Sliding doors
A smashed sliding door leaves a large opening. We can make it safe, board it and replace the glass with safety glass.
Shower screens
A shattered shower screen is a mess of small pieces. We can clear it up and replace the glass. See our Glass Shower Screens page for more.
After the repair
If the glass that broke was old annealed glass, ask us about replacing it with toughened or laminated glass, which are safer when they break.
The Insurance Council of Australia’s first advice is simple: safety is the priority (Insurance Council of Australia).
Contact your insurer early
The Insurance Council advises contacting your insurer as soon as possible to lodge a claim, and speaking to them before you authorise any building work, including emergency repairs. It says to ask for the insurer’s permission in writing, because unauthorised work may not be covered.
Document everything
Photograph and video the damage before the clean-up starts, and keep a list of anything else that was damaged.
Don’t throw it away yet
The Council also advises against throwing away items that could be repaired, unless they’re a health risk.
What we can provide
We can give you a written quote and a description of the work for your insurer, and a tax invoice once the job is done.
A broken window after a break-in is a crime scene before it’s a glazing job.
Call the police
WA Police say to call 000 in an emergency, including an immediate threat to people or property or a serious crime in progress. To report a crime that has already happened, call 131 444 (WA Police Force).
Photograph before you clean
Take photos of the damage and anything that was disturbed. You’ll need them for police and for your insurer.
Then secure the building
Once you’re ready, call us on 08 6150 8090. We can clear the glass, board up or replace the pane, and get the building secure again.
Harder next time
Laminated glass holds together when it breaks because of its interlayer, which makes it harder to get through. It’s worth considering for ground-floor windows and doors that have been targeted.
A crack doesn’t always mean an emergency, but some cracks can’t wait.
Treat these as urgent
Cracks in doors, low-level windows and shower screens, cracks that are spreading, and any pane that moves in the frame. These are the places where people are most likely to be hurt.
Toughened glass
Toughened glass usually shatters completely rather than cracking. If a toughened pane has a crack or chip, have it looked at soon.
Double glazed units
A crack in one pane of a double glazed unit, or fogging between the panes, means the unit needs replacing. It will have to be made to order.
Get it checked
Call 08 6150 8090, or send us a photo through our Contact page, and we’ll tell you how urgent it is and what the options are.
