Curtain Walling in Glasgow
Curtain Walling in Glasgow, booked ahead as a planned project.
What we do in Glasgow
For showrooms, office receptions and new commercial buildings in Glasgow, curtain walling gives floor-to-ceiling glass across wide spans.
We work from your building drawings and structural information, so frames and fixings suit the loads at your site, with fire-stopping at floor edges where it is needed.
Glasgow is a long way from our Midlands base, so work there is booked as a planned project and fitted in as few trips as possible.
Shopping streets and planning in Glasgow
If you have a Glasgow project in mind, get in touch with drawings or photos and we will tell you honestly whether it makes sense for us to take it on, or whether a Scottish firm would serve you better.
Scotland has its own planning system, run by Glasgow City Council for the city, with listed buildings overseen by Historic Environment Scotland. Many of the city centre's Victorian commercial buildings are listed or sit in conservation areas, including large parts of the Merchant City and the West End.
What you get from us
The same standard on every curtain walling job, whichever town it is in.
Large glazed areas
Floor-to-ceiling glass across wide spans, ideal for showrooms and receptions.
Designed for the site
Frames are sized for the wind load and fixings at your building, not chosen from a brochure.
Doors and vents built in
Entrance doors and opening windows sit in the same grid for a clean finish.
Fire-stopping included
Gaps at floor edges are sealed so the facade does not become a route for fire.
