John, vice president of customer service and distribution for PPG AutoGlass. “In the past, many glass shops avoided this business due to the amount of time and labor involved.
“Installation of these products is simple and streamlined,” St. John added. “Once the frame is measured and ordered, the insert is installed – in most cases, in less than 30 minutes. Because we warehouse and stock may popular sizes in our 128 distribution branches throughout the country, the products can be delivered with the shop’s next scheduled delivery. Sizes not stocked at our branches are shipped overnight direct from Western Reflections in Tennessee.”
As John Pettis, director of sales for Western Reflections, pointed out, “Our glass can be used in doors to meet ENERGY STAR criteria, and we offer hurricane-impact door glass in a number of style options. Door glass replacement is an easy three-step installation process and requires a short list of commonly used tools.”
These glass inserts provide an easy solution for restoring, replacing or renovating residential door entryways and an opportunity for glass shop retailers to extend their business beyond automotive windshield repair and replacement.
