Tinted Tempered Glass Installed in the Peoples Bank Building Storefront

Workers installing tinted storefront glass. — Crews guide tinted glass into the east storefront door frames.

Crews at the Peoples Bank building have installed tinted, tempered glass in the east storefront doors, marking a key step toward completing the ground-level façade. The glass is heat-treated for added strength, making it well suited for busy public entrances and Florida’s weather conditions. Its tinted finish helps reduce glare and solar heat while still allowing daylight to enter the space. Each glass panel was carefully guided into the metal door frames and secured to ensure proper alignment and long-term performance. With the glass now in place, the storefront gains both durability and a more finished appearance.
