If you are looking at window or glass replacement you will need to start by evaluating how the window has been installed and what material the building is made of. Often, in large industrial buildings the best thing will be to remove the frame that is already in place. Your glazier will need to ensure that the said frame has not been permanently attached to the building. If it has, removing it could cause damage to the structure. Your glass installer will need to take the appropriate measurements before he can go back to the workshop and have the glass cut.
In order to take proper measurements for industrial glass installation or replacement, he will need to measure the height of the window opening as well as the width. If the window is longer or if it is taller the installation of the window will need to take into consideration the contraction and expansion of the material during the freeze-thaw cycle. Window glazing ensures that your security is improved and that your windows do not break easily. Industrial strength windows are made to shatter and not to break. In fact they are made in such a way as to limit as much noise as possible as well. And if they are well insulated, heat will not easily escape.
You may consider using prefabricated industrial glass as it will likely save you money. If you are in the beginning stages of building your site, you may want to speak to the glazier and find out what the standard factory sizes are and then build with that in mind. This will be cheaper than having your windows custom made. It is a good idea for you to select a company that is also open to carrying out repairs, replacement and even carrying out routine service checks on your windows from time to time.
