Solving the Challenges of Custom Glass Fitting
Many homeowners attempt to cut glass themselves or rely on standard kit sizes, only to discover the risks involved. Cutting glass without professional tools often leads to jagged edges, uneven dimensions, and structural weaknesses that can cause the pane to crack under thermal stress.
Furthermore, using the wrong glass type for the application—such as standard float glass in a human impact zone—is a serious safety violation that can lead to severe injury and void insurance. A "close enough" fit in an old timber frame often results in rattles and air leaks.
Factory Precision
We solve these problems with factory-grade precision. Our team uses precision measuring tools to ensure custom-cut glass fits perfectly, accounting for the unique quirks of older timber frames or modern aluminium tracks.
We supply high-grade toughened safety glass that withstands impact and thermal stress, far exceeding the strength of annealed glass. By engaging us directly, you eliminate the middleman and ensure that the person measuring your job is the same expert overseen the fabrication.
We provide a seamless solution that restores security and elevates the visual appeal of your home with edges that are machine-polished for safety and elegance.
Our Glazing and Installation Workflow
We operate a streamlined, transparent process designed to get your pet door installed efficiently without compromising on quality.
1
Consultation & Stock
We discuss your requirements and select the correct glass type from our massive inventory of float, laminated, and mirror glass.
2
Precision Measure
We use laser levels or create physical templates for irregular shapes to ensure your glass fits perfectly in its intended space.
3
Expert Cutting
Our workshop team cuts the glass to exact tolerances using industrial diamond-tipped tools and machine-polishing for smooth edges.

Quality Check
Every pane is cleaned and inspected for flaws. We then arrange for collection or professional delivery to your site.
AS1288 Safety Glass Standards
Safety is non-negotiable in our trade. Every piece of glass we cut and install strictly adheres to AS1288 Australian Standards for Glass in Buildings.
This means we never cut corners on glass thickness or type. We exclusively use Toughened or Laminated Safety Glass for critical zones like doors, shower screens, and low-level windows. This glass is processed to be significantly stronger and breaks safely to minimize injury risk. We provide expert advice on the legal requirements for your specific project, ensuring your installation is fully compliant and safe for your family.

Building Considerations in Paddington and Red Hill
Paddington is not just a service area to us; it is our backyard. We understand the specific challenges and beauty of building in this area. We know that installing a splashback in a renovated worker's cottage on a steep block in Red Hill requires a different approach than fitting a mirror in a modern apartment complex in Milton.
We appreciate the community spirit here, and we strive to contribute to it by being the reliable local experts you can turn to. We understand the local council regulations regarding pool fencing and balustrades in this specific terrain, ensuring your project is not only beautiful but also fully compliant with local laws.

Inner West Service
If you have a broken window in Bardon or a shopfront emergency on Caxton Street, we are minutes away, not hours. We understand local terrain challenges.
Caring for Your New Glass
Once we have completed your repairs, a little maintenance goes a long way in preserving the clarity and lifespan of the glass. For standard windows and doors, we recommend cleaning with a mixture of methylated spirits and water (ratio 1:10) and a high-quality microfiber cloth to avoid streaking.
Avoid Abrasives
Avoid using abrasive pads or harsh chemical scrapers, especially on coated or tinted glass, as this can cause permanent scratches.
Periodically check the rubber gaskets or silicone seals. If you notice shrinking or peeling in the Brisbane heat, give us a call—failed seals can lead to water ingress.
