Oasis Glass

Not all window screens are created equal. We break down the differences between standard insect screening, heavy-duty pet screens, and solar-blocking mesh, and how to choose the right one for your patio door.

Preventative maintenance is cheaper than a repair. We teach you how to inspect your window operators for debris, clean the tracks, and apply the correct lubricants to keep your windows opening with ease.

Commercial window tinting can enhance privacy and reduce glare, but there are local regulations to consider. We cover what businesses in the GTA need to know about visible light transmission (VLT) standards.

It’s not just a surface wipe—if the fog is between the two panes of glass, the seal is broken. We explain the chemical process behind desiccant saturation and why this happens more frequently in the GTA's humid summers.

Sliding doors are vulnerable targets. We discuss the benefits of adding secondary security locks, bars, and anti-lift blocks to ensure your patio door is as secure as your front door.

Glass cutting is an art. We pull back the curtain on how Oasis Glass handles on-site fabrication, from score-and-snap techniques for tempered glass to the specialized tools required for high-security lamination.

Have an older home? You’ve probably struggled to find matching window cranks. We explain why manufacturing standards have changed and how we specialize in finding drop-in replacements for discontinued hardware.

Even the most energy-efficient glass will underperform in a leaky frame. We look at the holistic approach to home comfort: checking your weatherstripping, frame seals, and operator hardware for total energy efficiency.

Commercial storefronts have unique safety requirements. We discuss the importance of proper signage, finger guards, and automatic door-closer settings for your business entrance to minimize liability risk.

Changing a screen is a great weekend project. Attempting a high-rise emergency glass repair is not. We offer a guide on which tasks you can comfortably handle and when you need a professional to ensure your safety and warranty.
