Collection: About Us
At RF our story is woven with family values and a commitment to excellence in transparent glass railing. Our journey began decades ago, in a modest garage in Carignan, Quebec, where we sowed the seeds of innovation. From there, we created our pioneering round pool glass fence, symbolizing our dedication to pushing boundaries.
As summer enveloped us, our enterprise blossomed alongside it. Crafting custom glass railings for neighbours, family, and friends, we forged meaningful connections rooted in our community-centric ethos.
These early efforts laid the foundation for RF Transparent's identity today—a beacon of quality, integrity, and personalized service in glass deck railing. Over the years, our family business has flourished, expanding to four branches and serving over 20,000 satisfied customers.
Our dedicated team is synonymous with excellence in glass fences, driven by a shared commitment to exceeding expectations.
Early 2000
The notion of affordable glass railing for the average homeowner once seemed far-fetched, as it was typically reserved for high-end custom homes. However, the owners recognized that this had to change.
2010
Opening our first glass railing panel retail outlet in Marieville, Quebec was a pivotal moment. Despite its modest 7,000 sq. ft. size, our commitment to quality and service set us apart, paving the way for further expansion in the industry.
2015
Expanding into Laval marked our second location's opening, reinforcing our market presence and dedication to excellence and top-notch customer service. We transitioned primarily to a B2B-focused approach for transparent glass railing, stepping back from direct-to-consumer operations.
2020
Our third location in Saint-Julie, with a 30,000 sq. ft. warehouse, is a significant milestone. We've established the largest distribution centre for glass railing panels and hardware to meet the increasing demand in Quebec and Ontario.
2022
RF Transparent reaches a pivotal milestone with our fourth location in Toronto. As the largest distributor in Ontario and Quebec, we're dedicated to making premium glass railing systems affordable and accessible. Our growth journey continues, setting new benchmarks in quality and reach for the RF Transparent standard.
2024
Today, our products are available at nearly every building supply store across the nation. We've come a long way from the days when glass railing was out of reach for many. We take pride in making a meaningful impact in our community.
