ION Glass - Go Large
Our wholly bespoke approach to structural glass installations has resulted in projects that involve complex, over-sized glass. And sometimes it's not just the size but the shape, the curve or the location and the additional challenge to manoeuvre large glass panels into difficult locations.
All our glass is individually designed, manufactured and installed to meet even the biggest challenges. Take a look at the varied scope of these 'go large' Ion Glass projects
Two 7 metre high corrugated glass screens were used to create this unique and impressive entrance to a commercial building in Reading. Each screen comprises of individual panels of corrugated glass panels designed to work flawlessly both vertically and horizontally.
Arced glass pannels
The arched panels installed in the loggia at Lainston House Hotel were specified in anti-reflective glass – but each panel was only millimetres less than the maximum size available in Amiran glass, involving challenging and accurate computer controlled cutting.
Glass mezzanine floor
The frameless glass balustrading to the mezzanine floor at the top of a Martello Tower in Folkestone was winched up the outside of the tower and delivered via a window. The large curved panels at the top of the stairs interface seamlessly with the straight panels across the face of the mezzanine.
Bespoke design large glass screen
The frameless glass door at Kippington Church is a wholly non-standard 3 metres high, set between two narrow side panels and a curved overhead glass transom. Despite its size, the door opens flawlessly, pivoting on a fully concealed, heavy duty floor spring.
We fitted glass walling and an infinity edge to the external swimming pool at Lucknam Park Hotel and Spa. The vision panels are manufactured in 63 mm triple laminated glass, creating a stunning design feature in keeping with the style and luxury of the property.
A similar vision panel to a swimming pool in a luxury beachside property measured a staggering 4.7 metres long, 2.25 metres high and is 80mm thick - quadruple laminated, it weighed over 2000 kilos, manoeuvred into position by crane. The panel provides the high profile owners with stunning sea views when they swim (images of this installation are not permitted).
