Project snapshot

Category: Balcony Glass · Location: Dubai Marina · Property type: High-floor apartment · Typical duration: 2–3 weeks

The challenge

  • Sliding door dragging badly after years of sand in the track
  • Balcony balustrade glass scratched and no longer sealed at the base
  • Every panel has to fit a service lift to reach a high floor
  • Building requires approvals and fixed working hours

FixUp Fab solution

  • Panel sizes set by lift dimensions before anything was ordered
  • Laminated toughened glass for the balustrade at height
  • Thermally broken sliding profile with drained track
  • Building approvals and lift booking handled before delivery
  • Old units removed and taken off site the same day

Scope of work

Access survey and lift measurement Balustrade glass replacement Sliding door system replacement Sealing and drainage detailing Waste removal

Results

  • A sliding door that runs freely with a track that drains rather than holds sand
  • Balustrade glass specified for its actual job as a barrier at height
  • No delivery arriving on site that could not physically reach the floor
  • Works completed inside the building's approved hours
