What does custom glass cutting involve?

Custom glass cutting services can be summarised in three key steps:

Step 1: Measuring and design

Your glass cutter confirms your measurements or templates and advises on suitable glass thickness, safety requirements, and finishes.

Step 2: Cutting and shaping

Glass is then cut to your specifications, with options for curves, circles, intricate angles, or patterned edges.

Step 3: Finishing and installation

The edges may be polished, bevelled, or frosted. Your glass cutter can deliver the panel and fit it where required, such as in a door, cabinet, or window frame.

How much does custom glass cutting cost?

The cost of custom glass cutting will vary based on your requirements:

• Size

• Type (e.g., toughened glass)

• Thickness

• Edge finishing

• Design complexity

All of these factors, plus whether you opt for decorative treatments or engravings, will impact the overall cost of your project.
