Mr-Glass Fence Installation Nationwide

Mr-Glass Fence Installation: The Pomona Owner’s Guide

We stock and install Mr-Glass-compatible fence systems in Pomona, with typical installed prices running $3,500-$9,000 depending on linear footage, terrain, and whether we’re anchoring into existing concrete or pouring new footings. Most Pomona homeowners with a failing Mr-Glass fence notice the problem after a wind event - the Inland Empire’s Santa Ana gusts, which peak between October and March, expose weak posts or corroded hardware that held fine in calmer months. You’ll see leaning panels, gaps where glass meets aluminum framing, or hardware that’s started to weep rust onto the powder coat.

Which Mr-Glass Models This Applies To

Mr-Glass produces several fence series, and the part you need depends on which frame system was originally installed. The two most common in Pomona are the MG-100 residential series - recognizable by its 2-inch aluminum posts with concealed base plates - and the MG-200 commercial series, which uses 3-inch posts with exposed bolt-down hardware. Check the inside edge of your end post; Mr-Glass stamps a small series mark 6 inches from the base on the interior face. If that label’s worn off, measure the post width and note whether your glass panels are 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch tempered - the MG-100 ships with 3/8-inch, the MG-200 with 1/2-inch, and the gaskets, clips, and base shoes are not interchangeable between the two.

We source OEM Mr-Glass hardware direct from the distributor in Ontario, California, about 15 minutes from most Pomona job sites. For glass panels, we also stock Guardian and Vitro equivalents that match the tempering spec and edge polish - same safety rating, same visual result, often faster turnaround if the OEM backorders. We document which origin each component carries on your written quote, so you’re not guessing what you’re paying for.

Signs Your Mr-Glass Fence Installation Is Failing

• Glass panels rattle in the frame. The EPDM compression gaskets that cushion the glass have hardened in Pomona’s heat cycles - summer days over 95°F followed by cool nights bake the rubber until it loses grip. The panel isn’t seated securely anymore, and the metal-on-glass contact will chip the edge over time.
• Base plates lift slightly from the concrete. The wedge anchors or expansion bolts have loosened, often because the original installer didn’t hit rebar or dense substrate. In Pomona’s older neighborhoods near Ganesha Park, we’ve found footings poured over loose fill that compresses and lets the bolt walk.
• Post caps are cracked or missing. These aren’t decorative - they shed water away from the hollow post interior. Once water gets inside, the aluminum oxidizes from the inside out, and the post wall thins until it can’t resist lateral load.
• Powder coat is bubbling near the base. This means moisture has breached the coating and corrosion is active underneath. On MG-100 posts, this typically starts where the base plate meets the post, because that’s where standing water collects after irrigation or rain.
• Gate drags or won’t latch. The hinge barrels have worn, or the post has settled enough to throw the gate out of square. Mr-Glass uses a self-closing hinge with an internal spring - once that spring fatigues, the gate hangs heavy and the latch pin misses the strike.

Replacement Cost & What’s Included

For a typical Mr-Glass fence installation in Pomona - say 80 linear feet of MG-100 with a single pedestrian gate - the installed price lands between $3,500 and $9,000. The spread comes down to three things: whether we’re reusing sound posts and replacing only panels and gaskets (lower end), replacing posts and pouring new footings (middle), or handling grade changes that need stepped panels and custom cuts (upper end). We itemize every line on the written quote - panels, hardware, posts, concrete, haul-away - so you see where the number comes from. Under Clause 1 of the Haven Standard, that written price is fixed; no change proceeds without a signed change order, which is how we’ve kept projects within a few percent of the agreed cost across 4,000-plus jobs since 2007. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers the installation, and the glass itself carries the manufacturer’s tempering warranty.

DIY or Call Us?

There’s a safe middle ground here. A homeowner can check the series mark, measure panel thickness, and photograph any rust or gasket condition - that saves us a trip and speeds your quote. What we don’t recommend is removing glass panels yourself. Tempered glass is edge-sensitive; a twist or impact on a corner that’s already chipped will shatter the entire panel into granules, and 3/8-inch tempered at 6 feet tall is heavy enough to cause serious injury when it goes. The aluminum framing also hides tension in the compression system - release a gasket wrong and the panel drops. We’ve cleaned up enough DIY attempts in Pomona to know the saved labor cost rarely survives the replacement glass bill. Call (626) 606-1081 and we’ll schedule a free estimate, measure on-site, and give you a written price before anyone picks up a tool. Measure twice, then we can talk.
