Aluminium Glass Doors Everton Hills
Everton Hills sits close to our factory. We’re at 241 Leitchs Road, Brendale, a short drive away up South Pine Road through Eatons Hill and Albany Creek. Our install crews already pass through this pocket on regular North Brisbane and Moreton Bay runs, so a measure and quote here slots into the schedule quickly.
Why Everton Hills chooses custom aluminium glass doors
Between Bunyaville’s bushland and the Brisbane City boundary, Everton Hills is a hilly 3.3 square kilometre wedge in the City of Moreton Bay. It makes up the Hills District with Arana Hills and Ferny Hills, pressed against Everton Park and Mitchelton on the south-east side with conservation park behind it. Flat land is scarce. The first estates went in from 1965 south of South Pine Road, a northern estate followed around 1975, and the population jumped from 2,048 in 1971 to 4,707 in 1981 before it levelled off. Most of the housing stock here dates from that stretch, and most of those houses sit on a slope.
That combination is hard on doors. A house on a sloping block keeps moving in small ways for decades after it’s built. Frames that were square when the slab was poured aren’t square now. Sliding doors start dragging at one end of the track. Hinged doors catch the jamb at the top corner. You end up lifting and shoving a door you should just slide.
And in this suburb, that’s the owner’s problem to fix. 81.2% of dwellings are separate houses and 70.5% are owner-occupied. The big rear opening onto the deck gets used year round, so a door that drags gets noticed every day.
An off-the-shelf door assumes a square opening. After decades on a hillside, yours probably isn’t. So we measure the opening as it is today, then make the door to those measurements at our own 1,700 sqm factory in Brendale. Our installers hold Cert III in Glass and Glazing and Cert III in Carpentry, so when a jamb is out or the head has sagged, they correct the frame instead of packing a stock door into a crooked hole. We’ve been trading since 1972, which makes the business older than most of the houses in Everton Hills.
Architectural glass doors in Everton Hills
Some Everton Hills entries need more than a standard sliding unit. Our architectural range covers hinged aluminium entrance doors, entry doors and custom entry panels for homes and commercial properties. Panels come in single, double or multi-panel configurations with your choice of handles, locks, hinges and privacy options. We build with Breezeway and Vantage systems, and doors can integrate ComfortEdge, which is designed to reduce heat transfer and keep indoor temperatures steadier. That’s worth considering on an exposed hillside entry that cops afternoon sun. Commercial jobs get commercial-grade hardware and hinges rated for high-traffic use. See the full range at /glass-doors-brisbane/architectural/ or ask us which entry panel suits your opening.
Superior Glass has been making and fitting glass doors since 1972, Australian family-owned, with director Nathan Fox still hands-on in daily operations. We’re a manufacturer-installer, not a middleman: doors are made to measure at our 1,700 sqm factory and showroom at 241 Leitchs Road, Brendale, then fitted by our own crews. Those installers hold Cert III in Glass and Glazing and Cert III in Carpentry, the mix you want when a 1970s frame is no longer square. We’re QBCC licensed and insured. The glass itself is governed by Australian Standards: AS 1288 requires Grade A safety glass in doors, and AS 2047 covers external glazed doors, including wind loading. Most residential door installs take 1 to 2 days. And because we supply and fit Prowler Proof and Crimsafe security screens too, a screen door can go on in the same job as your new glass door.
