THE GLASS

Channel Low Iron Architectural Glass is part of Nathan Allan’s Freeform Series. This deep linear design is very popular with architects and interior designers. Our Channel glass forms a unique 3-Dimensional surface pattern. Accordingly this pattern creates a distortion privacy feature on its own. As a result, Convex Channel Low Iron Architectural Glass is both decorative and functional. Panels allow for great light transmission, while emanating a soft white glow.

SPECIFICATIONS

Various large panels, as large as 48” wide x 108”, are used in this architectural glass feature. Each panel is 3/8” (10mm) Low Iron glass. In addition, each panel is safety tempered. Furthermore, flat margins are created on all 4 sides of each panel to allow the glass to easily slide into the U-Channel Because of the flat margins, the panels line up perfectly, edge to edge.

INSTALLATION

Installation was performed Eastside Glass, Woodinville WA. A custom U-Channel is installed on top and bottom edges, and against back wall surfaces. Soft, glazing cushions are inserted under each glass panel. As such, the cushions lift the glass off a hard surface, protecting the glass.. Flat margins which are created on all edges, allow for each panel to be easily installed into the glazing channel. In addition, panels are joined together with a fine bead of silicone between vertical edges. Also, all perimeter edges receive a silicone bead within the wall channel.
