There are many technical points regarding glass block frames and many advantages of using them.You have the peace of mind knowing that with one company supplying and fitting frames posts and glass blocks you will get a reliable and quality package.
Our frames are fixed into your openings, assuring that openings will be accurate and correct.
By providing frame into brickwork and blockwork openings, the frame provides a point at which reveals can be returned into and also outside renders in the same way, window boards on sills etc.
When you see openings in masonry that have no frames very rarely do they look good, unless the reveals inside have been reduced to allow for finishes.
Structurally frames and posts ensure glass block walls are structurally sound.
Glass blocks in frames are better to weather seal.
