Vestibules

Energy Efficiency. Comfort. Control.

A well-designed vestibule does more than welcome your guests—it improves energy performance, reduces drafts, and enhances comfort all year round. At Centennial Glass, we specialize in the design, fabrication, and installation of commercial glass vestibules for retail stores, offices, government buildings, and institutions throughout Ottawa and the Valley.

Whether you’re integrating a vestibule with a new storefront or retrofitting an existing entrance, our expert glazing contractors deliver systems that meet code, function flawlessly, and look great.

Custom Vestibule Glazing Solutions

Vestibules act as an airlock between your exterior and interior spaces—reducing heat loss, improving HVAC efficiency, and controlling noise and debris from outside. We work closely with developers, contractors, and architects to deliver vestibule systems tailored to your building layout and traffic flow.

Our vestibule systems include:

  • Thermally broken aluminum framing for optimal insulation
  • Tempered or laminated safety glass for code compliance and security
  • Low-E or tinted sealed units (IGUs) for solar control and comfort
  • Integrated storefront and door systems for seamless visual and functional transitions
  • ADA and AODA-compliant design for accessibility
  • Automatic door integration and security hardware support

Looking to pair your vestibule with a storefront or main entrance upgrade?
