Why Specialty Glasswork Requires Expertise

Building Codes

Glass railings, commercial installations, and certain applications have strict code requirements. We know whats required and make sure everything is met to code.

Safety Glass Requirements

Some applications require tempered to laminated glass by law. We know when safety glass is required vs. optional.

Structural Considerations

Heavy glass needs proper support. We calculate loads and use appropriate mounting methods.

Edge Treatments

Exposed glass edges need proper finishing, polished, seamed, or beveled depending upon the application.

Problem Solving

Unusual spaces or awkward dimensions and tight access, custom glass projects often involve challenges that require creative solutions.
