Bevel Polishing (1/2” to 1-1/2”)
Beveling is the process of finishing flat glass edge to a bevel angle. We can produce a straight beveled edge up to 1-1/2" wide. Beveled edges are typically used on wall mirrors, table top glass, and cabinet doors.
Tempering
Tempered glass is a type of safety glass that has been specially treated to strengthen glass by 4 to 6 times compared to regular glass. When broken, tempered glass will usually shatter into small fragments instead of sharp shards, making it less likely to cause severe injury and deep lacerations. As a result of its safety and strength, tempered glass is commonly used for exterior & interior doors, windows, table tops, countertops, railing systems, flooring, partitions, and much more.

Whether searching for a replacement or new piece of glass or mirror, Proto Glass offers custom cutting and profiling services. Our services are fast, quality, professional, and performed in-shop so it’s done “while-you-wait.” We also have large quantities of glass stock sheets of various thicknesses available to accommodate your needs.
Flat and Shaped Edge Polishing
Edge polishing is the process of grinding the edge of glass sheet to a desired shape and finish. It is normally recommended on all exposed edges of glass. We produce flat edge profiles on most of the products we sell. For shaped glass, we offer Pencil, Triple Pencil, Ogee, and Mitre profiles.
Hole Drilling
Our in-shop hole drilling machine produces clean and accurate holes with ease. We can create holes of various sizes and shapes that can be drilled in most of the products we sell, ranging from diameters of 1/4" to the desired size that suits your needs.
UV Bonding
Do you need to adhere multiple pieces of glass together? We can help achieve this with our UV bonding process which cures glass in seconds. Popular applications of this process include, not limited to:
Art glass
Architectural glass
Bullet proof glass
Tables
Trophies
Metal brackets to glass
Sandblasting
Sandblasting is a popular and effective technique to transform a regular piece of clear glass to a semi-textured translucent piece of beautiful glass. With the shape and shadow effects that can be achieved via sandblasting, a picture like graphic can be sandblasted on the surface of the glass or carved on the glass to create a beautiful 3-D finish. Our technicians has mastered the techniques of sandblasting, etching and carving, where we can be produce an array of beautiful works of art. Popular applications of sandblasting include windows, doors, partitions, table tops, glass furniture, shower doors, cabinet doors, and much more.
Lamination
Laminated glass is a type of safety glass that holds 2 or more pieces of glass together with a PVB interlayer. When broken, the interlayer keeps the layers of glass bonded, and its high strength prevents the glass from breaking up into large sharp pieces. Laminated glass is normally used when there is a possibility of human impact or where the glass could fall if shattered. Popular applications include doors, partitions, skylights, windows, display cases, table tops and much more.
