Architectural Glass Services Backed by Construction Experience
Abricos Glass is the architectural glass division of Abricos LLC, a Colorado general contracting company established in 2019. We provide project planning, field measurement, custom glass coordination, and professional installation for residential and commercial glazing projects throughout the Denver metro area and surrounding Colorado communities.
Our work includes shower enclosures, glass railings, interior glass walls, office partitions, commercial storefront systems, glass doors, windows, and other architectural glass applications. Each project is reviewed around the actual site conditions, intended use, selected system, supplier requirements, and installation scope.
Abricos Glass and Abricos LLC
Abricos Glass operates as the architectural glass division of Abricos LLC. Abricos LLC provides broader general contracting and construction services, while the Abricos Glass brand focuses on architectural glazing projects for homes, businesses, contractors, designers, and property professionals.
This structure allows clients to work with a team that understands not only glass and hardware, but also how glazing interacts with framing, finished surfaces, waterproofing, doors, stairs, decks, commercial interiors, and the broader construction schedule.
Licenses, Registrations and Insurance
Abricos Glass operates as the architectural glass division of Abricos LLC. Abricos LLC holds contractor licenses or registrations in multiple Colorado jurisdictions. Licensing requirements and authorized scope vary by city, county and project type.
Abricos LLC maintains general liability insurance, and a current certificate is available upon request. The license or registration that applies to a specific project is confirmed against the jurisdiction of the project address.

What the Abricos Glass Team Handles
Initial Project Review
We review project photographs, drawings, approximate dimensions, intended use, preferred appearance, location, and anticipated schedule.
Site Visits and Field Measurements
When required, our team visits the project to verify finished openings, glass dimensions, mounting surfaces, clearances, door movement, hardware locations, and other installation conditions.
System and Hardware Coordination
We help identify practical glass, framing, door, railing, channel, hinge, clamp, handle, and hardware options based on the project requirements and supplier availability.
Scope and Proposal Development
We prepare a written proposal describing the included glazing work, assumptions, exclusions, materials, installation scope, site requirements, and pricing.
Supplier and Fabricator Coordination
Approved measurements and specifications are submitted to qualified glass fabricators and hardware suppliers. Custom glass may include project-specific dimensions, edgework, holes, notches, coatings, laminates, tempering, or other fabrication details.
Professional Installation
Our installation team receives, handles, positions, secures, aligns, seals where required, and adjusts the approved glazing system according to the written scope and applicable product requirements.
Project Communication
We coordinate scheduling, site readiness, material status, installation access, and glazing-related questions with the client and other responsible project participants.
What May Be Provided by Fabricators, Manufacturers, Engineers, or Other Trades
Custom glazing projects often involve specialized products and multiple project professionals. The exact responsibility of each party depends on the system, jurisdiction, contract, and written scope.
Glass Fabrication
Custom cutting, polishing, tempering, laminating, drilling, notching, coating, insulating, and other glass fabrication processes are generally performed by qualified glass fabricators according to approved project specifications.
Hardware and Framing Products
Hinges, channels, clamps, railings, doors, storefront framing, handles, locks, seals, and related components are supplied by qualified manufacturers and distributors selected for the approved project system.
Engineering
Structural engineering, calculations, stamped drawings, or other professional design services may be required for certain railings, exterior systems, large panels, wind-exposed applications, structural attachments, or jurisdiction-specific conditions. When required, the responsibility and cost for engineering must be identified in the written proposal or project documents.
Architectural Design
Architects and designers may define project appearance, opening locations, accessibility, system intent, finishes, and construction requirements. Abricos Glass coordinates the glazing scope with approved design information when provided.
Structural Preparation
Blocking, framing, concrete, steel, deck reinforcement, waterproofing, backing, curbs, wall preparation, electrical work, and other supporting construction may be performed by Abricos LLC, the general contractor, the property owner's contractor, or another responsible trade, depending on the written agreement.
Electrical and Access-Control Work
Power, wiring, card readers, electric locks, automatic operators, controls, and low-voltage systems must be coordinated with qualified electrical or access-control contractors unless specifically included in the approved scope.
Permits, Code Review, and Inspections
Permit and inspection requirements vary by jurisdiction, project type, occupancy, location, structural scope, glazing application, and construction documents. Some projects may not require a permit, while others may require contractor registration, drawings, engineering, plan review, inspections, or coordination with the responsible general contractor.
Permit responsibility must be defined before work begins.
Abricos Glass or Abricos LLC may assist with permit coordination when it is included in the written proposal. When permits are handled by the property owner, architect, general contractor, engineer, or another party, that responsibility should be clearly identified in the project agreement.
A proposal should not be interpreted as including permits, engineering, inspections, or plan-review fees unless those items are specifically listed.
System requirements and applicable approvals are reviewed according to the specific project, jurisdiction, manufacturer documentation, and responsible project professionals.
Drawings, Submittals, and Project Documentation
Depending on the project, documentation may include field dimensions, glass layouts, hardware selections, manufacturer product information, finish samples, sketches, shop drawings, engineering documents, or other submittals.
Abricos Glass may coordinate or provide project documentation when it is included in the written scope. Manufacturer drawings, fabricator drawings, engineered drawings, and architectural documents may be prepared by the responsible supplier or licensed professional.
Workmanship and Material Warranties
Warranty coverage depends on the installed product, manufacturer, supplier, project conditions, maintenance, and written agreement. Material warranties, when available, are provided according to the applicable manufacturer or supplier terms.
Abricos Glass workmanship coverage applies only as described in the signed proposal, contract, or warranty document.
- Manufacturer or supplier warranties vary by product.
- Glass breakage after installation is not automatically considered a material defect.
- Hardware finishes may require specific cleaning and maintenance.
- Sealants, gaskets, sweeps, and moving components may require periodic maintenance.
- Damage caused by building movement, misuse, impact, other trades, improper cleaning, structural movement, water intrusion outside the glazing scope, or unauthorized modifications may not be covered.
- Exact warranty duration must appear in the written agreement.
How We Approach Glass Projects
Accuracy Before Ordering
Custom glass cannot normally be resized, drilled, or notched after tempering. We verify critical dimensions and fabrication details before approved materials are ordered.
Clear Scope and Responsibilities
We work to define what is included, what is excluded, what the site must provide, and which responsibilities belong to other project professionals or trades.
Practical System Selection
The selected glass and hardware should fit the actual opening, supporting conditions, intended use, maintenance expectations, appearance, and project budget.
Professional Installation
Installation is completed with attention to safe glass handling, alignment, hardware operation, surrounding finishes, jobsite protection, and completion of the agreed scope.
