Window & Door Installation Edmonton
Canglow installs replacement windows and exterior doors in homes across Edmonton with our own in-house crews. We handle the whole job, from measuring each opening and removing the old units to insulating, sealing and checking that everything opens, closes and locks properly.
Installation labour on windows and doors is covered by a two-year warranty, every window we supply carries a lifetime product warranty, and our exterior doors carry a 10-year product warranty.
Professional Window Installation for Edmonton Homes
A new window only performs as well as its installation. Before your order goes into production, we measure each opening and check the condition of the existing frame and surrounding wall, so the new window is sized and configured for the opening it will go into.
On installation day, our crew removes the old window, prepares the opening, then sets, levels and fastens the new unit before insulating and sealing the perimeter. Interior and exterior finishing are completed where they are included in your quote.
We install Canadian-made vinyl windows in casement, awning, slider, hung, picture, bay and bow, hopper and custom configurations, with double-pane and triple-pane options and ENERGY STAR-certified choices. If you’re still comparing products or planning a whole-home project, see our Edmonton window replacement options or browse replacement window styles.
Exterior Door Installation
Canglow manufactures its own fiberglass and steel exterior doors in our own facility and installs them with the same in-house crews that install our windows. We also supply and install patio doors.
Before installation, we check the frame, threshold and surrounding wall so the new door can close, latch and seal properly. The old door and frame are removed, and the new unit is set, fastened, insulated and weatherproofed around the opening.
Exterior doors carry a 10-year product warranty, and door installation labour is covered for two years. Browse our exterior doors and patio doors.
Why Professional Installation Matters
Drafts around the frame, sashes that stick, doors that won’t latch and water getting into the wall can all come from poor installation, even when the product itself is sound. Correct installation depends on a few things done carefully:
- Accurate measurement of the rough opening
- A frame that is square, level and properly fastened
- Insulation around the full perimeter
- Air sealing on the interior side to limit drafts
- Exterior sealing that directs water away from the opening
Installation can’t correct unrelated problems such as high indoor humidity or damage hidden inside the wall. That’s why we check each opening before we quote and will tell you if we find something that needs attention first.
Canglow’s Installation Process
Consultation and Measurement
We visit your home to discuss your goals, measure every opening and note anything that affects the installation, such as frame condition, access and finishing needs.
Written Quote and Order
You receive a written quote that covers the products, installation and any finishing included. Your order is placed once you approve it.
Production and Scheduling
Windows are made to your measurements by our Canadian manufacturing partner, and exterior doors are built in Canglow’s own facility. The complete project, from order through production, delivery and installation, typically takes about 8 to 12 weeks. Your project manager will confirm your installation date.
Installation Day
Our crew protects the work area, removes the existing windows or doors and prepares each opening. The installation itself usually takes between 3 hours and 2 days, depending on the number of windows and doors in your order.
Insulating, Sealing and Finishing
Each new unit is fastened, insulated and sealed around the perimeter. Interior and exterior finishing are completed where they are included in your quote.
Final Check and Warranty Documents
We check that every window and door opens, closes and locks properly, walk you through the finished work and give you your warranty documents.
Winter Window Installation in Edmonton
Canglow installs windows and doors through the winter, subject to project and weather conditions. Winter jobs are planned so that each opening is exposed to the outside for as short a time as possible, and every unit is insulated and sealed before the crew moves on.
If the weather on your scheduled day isn’t suitable for installing and sealing the products properly, we’ll contact you to discuss a new date. Canglow has also supplied and installed windows and doors in Yellowknife, where winter temperatures can fall below -40°C.
In-House Installation Crews
Canglow does not subcontract installation. The crew that installs your windows or doors works for Canglow, so the same company that measured and quoted your project is responsible for installing it. If something needs attention after installation, you deal with one company rather than a separate contractor.
Warranty and Post-Installation Support
Windows carry a lifetime product warranty, exterior doors carry a 10-year product warranty, and installation labour on windows and doors is covered for two years. Coverage is subject to the terms, conditions and exclusions in the written warranty you receive with your project documents.
Warranty service is available to Canglow customers for windows and doors that Canglow supplied and installed. If you notice a problem with your Canglow product, contact us with your project details and we’ll review your coverage.
Financing Options
Financing may be available through Financeit, and eligible homeowners may be able to use programs such as CEIP (Clean Energy Improvement Program) or SHARP. Eligibility requirements apply, approval may be required, and program availability and terms can change. Canglow does not make eligibility decisions for government programs. Ask our team which options may apply to your project, or see our financing options.

What should homeowners do before installation?
Clear a working space inside each window or door being replaced by moving furniture, window coverings and fragile items out of the way. Make sure the crew can reach each opening from outside, including gates, decks and landscaping. Plan for pets and children to stay away from the work areas. Your project manager will let you know about any other preparation your home needs.
Does Canglow offer window or door repair?
Canglow does not offer general window or door repair. Repairs are provided only as warranty service for existing Canglow customers, where the issue is covered under the applicable warranty. If you have a Canglow product that needs attention, contact us with your project details and we’ll review your coverage.
