A corner balcony with bent glass on two radii, measured and drawnPlan view of a corner balcony. The glass runs straight along the front, bends on a 6 metre radius, tightens to a 2.8 metre radius round the corner, then runs straight back to the house. A laser drops points along the slab edge, the glass line (the outside face of the glass) is drawn 100 mm inside it, the tangent points where the radius changes are marked, and the seven panels are dimensioned.TPTPTPP11 632· · · ·P21 638· · · ·P31 562· · · ·P41 562· · · ·P51 457· · · ·P61 457· · · ·P71 482· · · ·R 6 012R · · · ·R 2 806R · · · ·HOUSESLAB EDGE, MEASUREDGLASS LINE, DRAWNLASERA corner balcony with bent glass on two radii, measured and drawnPlan view of a corner balcony.

Bent glass, measured and drawn

I measure on site with a laser and draw every panel, so you can quote the job and order the glass off the drawings.

First in line when bookings open.

How a remake happens

  1. Measured with a tape and a template
  2. Toughened in the factory. Can't be trimmed after.
  3. It doesn't fit on site.
  4. Remade, and installed a second time weeks later.

How a job runs

  1. 1 You send the job Address, plans, the glass spec.
  2. 2 I measure on site A laser maps the opening and the slab edge, point by point.
  3. 3 I draw it to cut Shop drawings and cut files, a sheet for every panel.
  4. 4 You check, your fabricator cuts Look it over on your phone before anything is ordered.

Design settings

Spigots, standoffs or channel, fixing centres, glass gaps, height above the floor, the top edge. Change one and every sheet and cut file follows.

Jobs I measure and draw

Measured and drawn by the same person

I've spent years drafting glass jobs in CAD. Now I measure them on site too.
