Interior Glass

Glass Walls

Glass walls are a popular design element for commercial office spaces, restaurants, hotels, and more. These space-saving walls have been a go-to choice for architects and interior designers when designing for urban dwellings. The transparency of a glass wall can both define and preserve space, protect from UV light, provide a sense of privacy, and give a space a more elegant, luxurious feel. Northwestern Glass Fab can provide any glass wall system and design to fit your specifications.

Types of Glass Walls

  • Demountable Wall Systems
  • Glass Partitions
  • Glass Entrances

Demountable Wall Systems

Give your space the utmost versatility with a standing glass wall system. With its movable panels, you can customize any room with limitless wall style combinations. Each of our glass wall systems are easily mounted to the floor and/or ceiling for structural integrity and safety. And when it’s time to change up the look of the space, the floor and ceiling mounts can be removed and reinstalled in a new location or configuration.

Glass Partitions

Northwestern Glass Fab offers luxurious glass partition systems, often installed to replace solid drywalls. Glass partitions are perfect for creating an open feel while at the same time reducing noise levels of a busy office. They can do all of this while adding a touch of sophistication and elegance. Glass partitions are perfect for:

  • Openness and Privacy Combined. As stated previously, glass partitions are perfect for spaces that need to feel open, but still need to maintain some level of privacy or division. Replacing solid walls with glass partitions can help foster a sense of togetherness in a workplace.
  • Adding Light to Your Space. Adding glass walls will give your office or interior space a brighter and more inviting space to work or live in.
  • Adding design creativity. While glass walls have typically been used for allowing a transparent and relatively sound-proof barrier in spaces, you can still have a flare of creativity. Choose to give the wall a textured, frosted look, or have your company’s logo enlarged and etched into the glass. Whatever design you prefer, the possibilities are endless.

Glass Doors

Utilize virtually any glass pattern, color, or opacity to design a modern, sleek glass door for any building or interior office. An ideal glass entrance in today’s designs can be virtually frameless, adding a sleek and elegant design to any workspace.

A glass entry system has the following features:

  • High-quality locking technology

Glass Balconies

Glass Railings for Balconies

Installing a glass railing around your balcony is an innovative and stylish way to make the most of your view. Often found in condominiums and lakefront homes, glass balcony systems add a beautiful focal point and an uninterrupted view to the outside world.

The glass panels are safety- and fire-rated based on state regulations. In fact, although they appear delicate, glass railings for balconies are incredibly strong and often safer than traditional guardrails since they offer an extended, solid barrier.

Glass railings for balconies are also highly customizable. From the type of glass used for the panels (tempered, laminated, or both) to the posts, pins, and rails, every component of a glass balcony system can be customized to suit your preferences.

If you’re interested in enhancing your home or building with a custom glass balcony, contact Northwestern Glass Fab today!

  • Custom cut. Though we cut traditional glass shapes (squares, circles, or rectangular, etc.) on a regular basis, our experts can also cut any custom shape to your specific design preferences.

Each of these customizable design options are typically best suited for specific projects. And for each project, there is typically an ideal glass type, edge polish, and thickness to ensure a lasting product.

Furniture Protection

  • Glass thickness: A glass tabletop protector is typically thinner than other tabletop options. The preferred thickness is ¼”. Other options, such as ⅜” or ½”, can also be used.
  • Edge type: For a clean look that aligns with its tabletop, a flat polished edge is the preferred look – but other polish edges, such as pencil or beveled, can be used as well.
  • Glass strength: Typically, annealed glass is the best option to protect the table. However, tempered glass can be added for safety, especially if young kids will be using the table.

Glass on a pedestal

  • Glass thickness: Typically, thicker glass is required for this type of table, as the glass is taking the brunt of the surface weight with no other structural support. We recommend ⅜” or ½”.
  • Edge type: Any type of polished edge can be used based on the look and feel you want for your glass furniture.
  • Glass strength: We recommend tempered glass for this type of tabletop for added safety and strength.

Glass embedded in a frame

  • Glass thickness: These types of glass tabletops are typically seen outdoors at restaurants or patios. Tempered pattern glass is a common choice for these applications.
  • Edge type: For a clean look that aligns with its tabletop, a flat polished edge is the preferred look – but other polishing options, such as pencil polish or beveled, can be used as well.
  • Glass strength: We recommend using tempered glass for this tabletop option, as it adds safety and strength.
