Glass Shopfronts

Toughened glass shopfronts offer a multitude of advantages that extend beyond mere aesthetics. These sophisticated architectural elements are designed to enhance the overall appeal and functionality of any space. In the following paragraphs, we will delve into the various aspects and benefits of toughened glass shopfronts.

One of the most significant advantages of these shopfronts is their ability to amplify the presence of natural light within a space. The use of toughened glass, which is transparent and allows light to pass through without obstruction, creates an ambiance that is flooded with daylight. This is particularly beneficial for businesses as it not only reduces the need for artificial lighting during the day but also imparts a bright and inviting atmosphere. Customers and visitors will be drawn to the well-lit interior, making it an ideal choice for retail stores, restaurants, and other commercial establishments where visual appeal matters.

Furthermore, toughened glass shopfronts provide uninterrupted views, both from the inside looking out and from the outside looking in. This characteristic is highly advantageous for businesses that wish to showcase their products or services to passersby. The unobstructed view creates an open and welcoming environment that can be particularly enticing for potential customers. Additionally, this feature is valuable for offices or spaces with beautiful outdoor surroundings, as it allows occupants to enjoy scenic views without any visual hindrance.In addition to their functional benefits, toughened glass shopfronts offer a clean and contemporary finish to any space. The sleek and modern appearance of toughened glass complements various interior design styles, from minimalist and industrial to elegant and classic. The clean lines and transparency of the glass contribute to a sophisticated aesthetic that can elevate the overall look of a space. This makes toughened glass an attractive choice for architects and interior designers seeking to create a modern and visually appealing atmosphere.

Customization is a key aspect of toughened glass shopfronts. These shopfronts can be tailored to meet specific design preferences and functional requirements. When it comes to installation, there are options for rails and patch fittings, and these components can be finished in a variety of ways, including polished stainless steel, powder coating, anodizing, and brass. This flexibility in design allows for seamless integration into the existing decor or the creation of a unique and striking focal point within a space.

Durable Toughened Glass Panels

Toughened glass stands as a robust choice due to its exceptional resistance to corrosion, ability to endure adverse weather conditions, and its capacity to minimize damage in the event of an accident. These qualities render it a prime selection for ensuring safety and security in your shopfront design.

The inherent durability of toughened glass is a key feature, as it resists the corrosive effects of various environmental factors, ensuring the shopfront maintains its integrity over time. Additionally, its capacity to withstand harsh weather conditions, including wind, rain, and temperature fluctuations, makes it a dependable choice for exterior installations, guaranteeing the shopfront’s longevity and reliability.

In terms of safety, toughened glass is designed to shatter into small, relatively harmless fragments when subjected to significant impact. This fracture pattern minimizes the risk of injury in case of an accident, making it a prudent choice for environments where safety is paramount, such as shopfronts. Consequently, toughened glass not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of your storefront but also prioritizes the well-being of occupants and passersby, offering peace of mind for your shopfront design.

 

The toughened glass utilized in our glass shopfronts and frameless glass doors adheres to the stringent standards outlined in BS EN12150. Among our array of choices, the 12mm glass thickness stands as our most favored option. This specific manufacturing process imparts several noteworthy attributes to our toughened glass.

First and foremost, it results in glass that exhibits remarkable scratch resistance, ensuring that your shopfront maintains its pristine appearance over time. Additionally, this method of production renders the glass notably resistant to penetration, offering an invaluable layer of security to your shopfront. The combination of these features not only contributes to the durability and longevity of your glass installation but also enhances the safety and protection it provides. Therefore, when you opt for our toughened glass, you are not only embracing top-tier quality but also fortifying the security of your shopfront, offering both peace of mind and aesthetic appeal.

Basically, there are two types of curtains walling systems, depending upon the assembly of their components. The first one is the stick curtain wall system in which the components are assembled piece by piece on the building itself. This works well for low rise buildings. This is a flexible option as compared to its counterparts because it gives room for adjustments. On the other hand, in unitized curtain wall systems the parts are already assembled in the factory and are brought to the location as a single unit. This type of system works well in high rise buildings. So, there is no doubt that every building will have a certain type of curtain walling system installed. Curtain wall systems must be waterproof. At times of rain and snow, you would not want your buildings to drown in it. Therefore, the frames we provide come with pocket sills sloped and wept glazing to collect and drain the water/snow. The slope to the exterior collects water and drains it automatically. Additionally, sill flashings and slope heads are also added to the exterior to enhance the drainage process. The walls have an air and water seal to disbar water/air to enter the building. For this, perimeter sealants are used to limit the penetration of water and air. READMORE
