Modern glass technology has evolved significantly over the years. Today's architectural glass products are engineered to withstand extreme temperatures, hurricanes, strong winds, UV exposure, heavy rain, and changing weather conditions while maintaining energy efficiency and visual appeal.
Commercial Glazing Technology
Selecting the correct glass system is critical for structural stability and building energy code compliance. Our commercial systems include:
- Storefront Systems: Perfect for retail and mixed-use, combining visibility with safety features.
- Curtain Wall Systems: Lightweight, non-structural architectural skins maximizing daylight and performance.
- Weather & Wind Load Engineering: Tailored glass and structural silicone to resist severe Gulf Coast weather.
Selecting the Right Glass Type
We work with architects, building owners, and builders to select products based on:
- Building type and height specifications
- ASHRAE and local energy code target U-factors
- Life-safety building codes (e.g. tempered safety zones)
- Acoustic and security threat levels
Types of Glass We Fabricate & Install
Tempered Safety Glass
Heat-treated to be 4-5x stronger than regular glass. In impact events, it shatters into tiny, dull cubes rather than jagged shards. Perfect for doors, sidelights, and low-level glass windows.
Laminated Safety Glass
Two glass sheets bonded by a clear polyvinyl butyral (PVB) interlayer. Even when fractured, it remains bonded in place, providing forced-entry security, severe storm resistance, and acoustic dampening.
Insulated Glass Units (IGUs)
Double or triple-pane units separated by a sealed space filled with air or Argon gas. They dramatically improve building insulation, lower heating and cooling costs, and increase interior climate comfort.
Low-E (Low Emissivity) Glass
Equipped with a microscopically thin, transparent metal oxide coating that reflects solar heat while allowing natural light inside. In Houston, it prevents solar heat gain during hot summer periods.
What Houston Says About Us
"Glass Architects did an amazing job replacing our storefront double doors and cracked side panels. Their crew arrived in a branded service van, worked safely, and completed the install in half a day. Absolutely professional!"
"We contracted them to install structural glass partitions for our corporate office lobby. The aluminum frames fit perfectly under our high ceilings, and the Low-E insulated glass keeps the workspace comfortable. Highly recommend."
"Excellent residential glass service. They installed custom frameless glass shower enclosures in our bathroom remodel and a wall of mirrors for our home gym. Their prices were competitive and details were flawless."
