Quick answer: Fort Lee runs the gamut — from luxury high-rise condos along Bridge Plaza and Hudson Lights to traditional single-family colonials, capes and two-family homes off Main Street. The glass work splits roughly into two worlds: condo installs (which require building-management coordination, COI submittals, freight-elevator reservations and careful protection of common areas) and single-family installs (which look more like our typical Bergen County work). About 16 minutes from our Lodi shop via Route 4 East.
Fort Lee at a Glance for Glass Projects
Fort Lee (ZIP 07024) holds about 40,000 residents in two and a half square miles, plus a remarkable number of high-rise residential buildings clustered around the George Washington Bridge approach, the Bridge Plaza area and the Hudson Lights / The Modern developments. Single-family housing dominates west of Lemoine Avenue and along the streets toward the Englewood Cliffs border — colonials, capes and two-families built between 1910 and 1960.
The condo work is what makes Fort Lee distinct from the rest of our service area. We're well practiced at the building-management side of the job: pulling certificates of insurance for the building, reserving the freight elevator, time-windowing the install around the building's working hours, and protecting elevator pads, lobby floors and corridors during glass delivery. Most condos have a renovation desk that requires submittals before any contractor can enter the building; we handle those packets routinely.
Recent Shower-Door Highlights in Fort Lee
Three recent installs that illustrate the range of Fort Lee work. Locations are described by general area or building type, not exact addresses.
High-Rise Frameless Enclosure, Bridge Plaza Condo
A primary-bath renovation in a 32nd-floor condo near Bridge Plaza called for a frameless inline enclosure replacing the developer's original framed slider. The project required a COI submittal to building management, a 9 a.m. freight-elevator reservation, and full corridor protection from the elevator bank to the unit. We measured the existing 60-inch opening on a Tuesday, fabricated a 30-inch fixed panel and 30-inch swing door in 3/8-inch clear with brushed-chrome hardware, and installed it the following Wednesday morning — measured, delivered and installed within a single building-management work-window.
Curbless Walk-In, Single-Family on Main Street
A 1940s two-family near Main Street had been opened up into a single-family by the current owner. The renovated primary bath called for a curbless walk-in with a 60-inch fixed inline panel and a single pivot door. Built in 1/2-inch low-iron glass with matte-black hardware. The 1940s framing was out of plumb by about 1/2-inch over the door height, which we templated carefully — the panel was cut to compensate so the door hangs square.
Spa Enclosure in a Hudson Lights Unit
A primary-bath renovation in a Hudson Lights condo specified a spa-style enclosure: a 7-foot-wide curbless walk-in with a 36-inch fixed inline panel, 36-inch swing door, and short return wall to a private water-closet alcove. Built in 1/2-inch low-iron glass with polished-nickel hardware. Condo install: COI on file, freight elevator reserved, two installers, padded delivery up 18 floors, full lobby and corridor protection. The whole install ran from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. inside the building's allowed contractor window.

Mirror work in Fort Lee divides between large condo dressing-room installs (where the freight elevator and protected paths matter) and traditional vanity mirror upgrades in single-family homes.
Wall-to-Wall Dressing-Room Mirror, 28th-Floor Condo
A primary-suite dressing room in a Bridge Plaza condo called for a single floor-to-ceiling mirror running the full back wall — 8'10" tall by 11' wide. We delivered it as three perfectly aligned panels with hairline butt-joints, polished edges and hidden Z-clip support. Building requirements: every panel had to be small enough to fit the freight elevator with corner protection, which dictated our seam pattern. From across the room it reads as one continuous mirror.
Beveled Vanity Pair, Main-Street Colonial
A renovated 1928 colonial near Main Street had a new primary-bath vanity with two undermount sinks. We cut two matching beveled mirrors at 28 by 38 inches, each with a 1-inch polished bevel, and hung them with hidden cleats so no hardware is visible.
For mirror specs, edge profiles and the full process, see our custom mirrors page and the custom mirror wall guide.
Other Glass Work in Fort Lee
Two recent non-shower projects: a fully outdoor glass balcony railing replacement on a high-floor condo balcony (1/2-inch tempered panels, building-spec aluminum top rail and stainless-steel posts, full building-management approval cycle), and a back-painted glass kitchen backsplash in soft warm white behind a 30-inch range in a renovated single-family kitchen near Lemoine Avenue. We've also handled storefront repairs along Main Street for retail tenants over the years.
