If you’re searching for fast, affordable, and non-invasive dent removal, Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) is the go-to solution. It preserves your factory paint, maintains your vehicle’s resale value, and often delivers same-day results.
But if your vehicle is equipped with double pane windows, there’s an important safety factor you need to know.
At High Sierra Dent Company, we specialize in professional PDR services with integrity and precision — and we always take extra precautions when dealing with double pane glass.
What Are Double Pane Windows?
Double pane (laminated) windows are built with two layers of glass and a plastic interlayer. These are most common in luxury and higher-end vehicles, especially in front door windows and windshields.
Double pane windows offer:
-
✅ Superior sound reduction
-
✅ Enhanced UV and heat protection
-
✅ Improved passenger safety
While they offer clear benefits, they also introduce extra challenges when it comes to dent repair.
Why Double Pane Glass Affects PDR
In many door dent repairs, technicians insert tools down the window channel to access the backside of the panel. But with double pane glass, this approach becomes too risky — and we don’t take those chances.
Our Policy at High Sierra Dent Company:
We do not access a dent through the window opening if double pane glass is present — unless the window has been professionally removed.
Here’s Why:
1. The Risk of Breakage is High
Double pane glass is more delicate than standard glass. Applying pressure from PDR tools can easily result in:
-
Cracking
-
Delamination
-
Complete window failure
2. Replacement Is Costly
These windows are expensive to replace — and the damage is often irreversible once it occurs.
3. We Prioritize Safety and Integrity
At High Sierra Dent Company, we take the time to do things right. If there’s risk to your vehicle or added cost to you, we’ll find an alternative access point or let you know upfront if a repair can’t be done safely.
