Our Services

We take a collaborative approach to every project that we work on. Our Design Assist process brings architects, engineers, and glazing specialists together to optimize the design of the glazing system. It begins with the selection of materials, types of glass, and framing systems that meet aesthetic, structural, and energy efficiency requirements. We execute code compliance, structural analysis, seismic analysis, thermal models, and BIM modeling to ensure our proposed systems maintain the design intent without compromising performance. Through interactive discussions and simulations, our team refines the design to balance performance, cost, and aesthetics. This process ensures that glazing systems integrate seamlessly into the building’s overall design and meet the project’s functional and aesthetic goals while staying within budget and regulatory constraints.

Our pre-construction work sets the foundation for a successful glazing installation that aligns with the project’s goals and requirements. This is a crucial phase in our partnership that precedes actual building work. It encompasses several key steps. First, we define the scope, objectives, and budget for the glazing components. Then, we select glazing materials, styles, and performance specifications, often involving suppliers and specialists. Next, detailed project schedules and timelines are developed, considering procurement lead times. Permitting and regulatory compliance are addressed, ensuring that glazing systems meet local building codes and standards. Finally, pre-construction involves assembling the project team, coordinating logistics, and conducting risk assessments.

We are meticulous in our estimation process, and it is essential for budget planning and project feasibility. It begins with a comprehensive review of architectural and engineering plans to determine the quantity and specifications of glazing materials and components. We factor in costs for glass types, framing systems, hardware, installation labor, and any specialized requirements like energy-efficient coatings or safety features. We also consider market rates, supplier quotes, and historical cost data to generate accurate cost projections. This process enables stakeholders to make informed decisions, allocate resources effectively, and ensure that the glazing elements align with the project’s financial constraints and objectives.

When we are on-site, safety is our first consideration. Workers involved in glazing installation are required to wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses, gloves, and helmets. Additionally, safety protocols for working at heights are strictly enforced, with the use of scaffolding, safety harnesses, and fall protection systems.

Proper handling and storage of glass panels to prevent breakage and injury are also paramount. Regular safety briefings and training sessions ensure that all team members are aware of potential risks and adhere to safety guidelines, reducing the likelihood of accidents and injuries during the glazing installation process. Glazing systems are then installed by glass technicians, following precise specifications and quality standards. Coordination among different construction trades is critical to ensure proper sealing, insulation, and structural integrity. Finally, rigorous quality control checks are enforced to guarantee that the glazing systems are flawlessly integrated, contributing to the building’s aesthetics, functionality, and energy efficiency as envisioned during the design phase.
