Frameless glass shop fronts
Frameless glazing is a special type of shopfront design involving. the installation of panels from solid toughened glass with a thickness of 6-19 mm. The glass is fixed to the aluminium profile/rails. Which are installed at the top and bottom of the glass panels in the horizontal direction. Frameless shopfronts are a transparent glass structure that is installed without vertical beams. And without a frame, on the basis of an aluminium profile to which toughened glass attached.
Our shopfitters will:
- discuss all design features of the glass structure you need;
- take the necessary measurements;
- create sketches, drawings, 3D models and coordinate them with you.
Glazed Shopfront does not require special care and is completely safe. If the glass is broken, it will break into small pieces with smooth edges, which eliminates injury.
Frameless Shop Front provides effective protection from external influences. It increases the light transmission of the structure. Giving the exterior a sophisticated look and harmoniously blending into any landscape.
