Project overview

Forever 21 – Manassas Mall

At Manassas Mall in Virginia, CBE Glass installed the full storefront for Forever 21: large tempered glass lites, the mall entrance and interior glass. Our crews handled oversized glass inside the mall, set the framing and finished the installation in time for the store's opening.

The challenge

Retail fit-outs run on fixed opening dates set months in advance. Storefront work has to fit between framing, MEP and the tenant's own fixtures, and in malls it must follow landlord rules for barricades, deliveries and after-hours work.

Our solution

We laid out and anchored the aluminum storefront framing, glazed it with tempered safety glass and installed the entrance doors with commercial-grade closers, pivots and locks, finishing every joint with weathertight sealant. Display glass and specialty glazing were handled with extra care to deliver the flawless, premium finish the brand expects. Throughout the job, our team coordinated closely with the general contractor and the owner, kept the site clean and safe, and protected finished surfaces until turnover.

The result

The finished storefront gives the brand maximum visibility from the street or mall corridor, with clean sightlines that put the merchandise on display and a durable entrance built for heavy daily traffic. Discover more of our work in Northern Virginia.
