It takes a mix of engineering, materials science, and precise manufacturing methods to make cut and notched window grilles. These grilles are used to separate a window into smaller parts, giving a clean aesthetic to any space while also supporting the structure of the window. At Custom Glass Products, we use Decralite® cut and notched window grilles, offering you superior quality and ease of installation.

Here are some important facts about the science behind making cut and notched window grilles:

Choice of Materials: The materials used are very important for making sure these grilles last and work well. Wood, metal, vinyl, and composite materials are all common types of materials. Each material has its own benefits, such as how long it lasts, how well it resists rust, and how little upkeep it needs.

Accuracy: Accuracy is needed to ensure a quality fit when manufacturing cut and notched window grilles. That is one of the many reasons why we rely on Decralite® components. They use the latest tools and fully automated machines to ensure the sizes of each grille are correct and consistent. This level of accuracy is necessary for the squares to fit into the window frame perfectly and look the same.

Structured Engineering: If the squares in a window have a structural purpose, like giving the glass panes extra support, structural engineering rules apply. The grille’s design must take things like wind load, temperature expansion, and contraction into account so that the window stays strong.

The manufacturing of cut and notched window grilles is a complex science that Decralite® has fine-tuned over the years, which is why we trust them with the grille kits we offer. Contact us today to learn more.
