Traditional window design typically features grilles, or thin bars that divide the larger window into smaller sections. In the past, glass grilles were used out of necessity—it was very difficult to manufacture large, flat panes of glass, so home designers created windows by fitting many smaller panes together. Even though modern technology has made it much easier to create wide glass panels, many homeowners and designers still like the look of glass grilles.
If you want to use grilles in your window designs, we at Custom Glass Products encourage you to consider using our custom glass grilles. Keep reading to learn about a few of the benefits our grilles have to offer.
- Structural Integrity – One benefit of using custom glass grilles is the way they lend additional stability and strength to the glass. If your client lives in an area prone to severe weather, adding grilles to their windows is a wise choice.
- Design Possibilities – Another benefit of our custom glass grilles is the many design possibilities they offer. Our team can work with you to create a grille that perfectly suits your client’s vision.
- Architectural Harmony – A third benefit of our custom glass grilles is the way we can tailor the design to work with the surrounding architecture of the home. As we alluded to at the beginning, many traditional styles use grilled windows, so using plain plate glass in homes of these styles would look strange. You can count on our team to provide windows that blend harmoniously with the rest of the home’s design.
