Secure your car today.

A smashed side window can’t wait: your car is open to the weather and to a second break-in. We stock and source tempered door glass for the most common vehicles in the Sacramento area and can usually install the same day you call. Every job includes removing the door panel, vacuuming the glass out of the door cavity and tracks, and testing the regulator before we put it back together.

  • Front and rear door glass, quarter glass and vent windows
  • Full cleanup of broken glass inside the door and cabin
  • Regulator and window motor checked while the door is open
  • Tinted and privacy glass matched to your other windows

How it works

Three steps, one visit.

STEP 1

Call with your VIN

Side glass varies by trim and tint. Your VIN lets us pull the exact part so we get it right the first time.

STEP 2

Panel off, glass out

We remove the door panel and weather seals, vacuum out the shards and fit the new tempered glass to the regulator.

STEP 3

Test and reassemble

The window is cycled up and down, aligned to the seals and the panel is reinstalled with every clip.

Break-ins in Sacramento

Car break-ins are a fact of life around midtown, the Arden area and light-rail lots. If it happens to you: don’t drive with the window taped up longer than you have to, photograph the damage for your insurer or a police report, and call us. If you can’t drive it safely, our mobile unit can come to where the car is parked.

Why the regulator matters

The metal arms and cables that lift the window often get bent or jump their track during a break-in. We check them every time. If the regulator or motor is damaged, we can handle that too — see power window repair.

*$0 deductible depends on your policy’s comprehensive glass coverage. We verify coverage with your insurer before work begins.

FAQ

Side Window Replacement questions.

It falls under comprehensive coverage, the same as a windshield. Vandalism and theft claims are typically covered minus your comprehensive deductible. We bill the insurer directly.
Yes. Rear door and quarter glass on most SUVs and trucks comes from the factory with dark privacy glass; we order the matching part so it looks original.
Not when we’re done. We pull the panel and vacuum the door cavity and tracks — the rattle you hear in cheap jobs is glass that was left behind.
Usually the same day for common vehicles. Less common glass may take a day to arrive. Either way we can tape the opening so the car is weatherproof in the meantime.
