About Us
The CrewBehind The Glass
AR Contract Glazing is a commercial glazing subcontractor based in Los Angeles. We install curtain wall, windows, and storefront on commercial buildings across the country.
Our Story
Alfonso Rodriguez started AR Contract Glazing to run a glazing company the way he'd want to work for one: take care of the crew, and stand behind every job.
We started with a small crew on mid-rise jobs around Los Angeles. Today we install for national GCs on work that runs from high-rise curtain wall to retail storefront.
Our field crews run union-signatory and open-shop jobs across the country. The glass has to seal, drain, and hold for the life of the building, so that's how we hang it.
What Drives Us
Our Values
Precision
Curtain wall tolerances get measured in millimeters. We hold that standard from layout points through the final punch list.
Safety
Our crews work at height on active sites every day. Everyone's OSHA-trained, every lift gets planned, and fall protection isn't optional.
Integrity
If we commit to a date, we work to hit it. If something goes wrong in the field, we own it and fix it instead of papering over it.
