AAA Metal and Glass, Inc.

From Modest Beginnings

AAA Metal and Glass, Inc. opened for business in October of 1978. Gerald Feather and a business partner began a small local glass business from the ground up. They began their endeavor with very little capital and only some basic knowledge. However, this business relationship only lasted one year when Gerald’s partner had to leave for personal reasons leaving him to fend for himself with very little knowledge of the industry. Mr. Feather incorporated his business at that time, and AAA Glass & Mirror Inc. was formed. Realizing the need for assistance, Mr. Feather hired two men with more glass experience than himself.

Determination & Commitment

Blessed with the attributes of being a quick study and a strong commitment to service, this family-owned business was well on its way. Mr. Feather’s wife Patricia and his son Evan handled the books and most of the daily business. The day-to-day operations were all run out of a very modest 18” x 18” shop located near their home in Fairlawn, NJ. After 3 years, the company moved to a larger location in Haledon, NJ, which consisted of a 32’ x 32’ shop with a 10’x12’ office on the second floor. This site would house AAA Glass & Mirror, Inc. for the next 14 years.

The family was faced with personal tragedy in 1997 when Mrs. Feather was diagnosed with a terminal illness. At this time, Evan had been a steady employee of AAA Glass & Mirror since his high school days and, even earlier than that, took over the business allowing his father to care for his ailing wife. The two came to a mutual agreement allowing Evan (only 24 years old) to take over the company while Mr. Feather focused his time and attention on his wife and younger daughter, Jennifer.

Whether it’s a broken storefront window in the middle of the night or a midtown office building, AAA Metal and Glass Inc. remains Always Available Anywhere!
