01 / Experience

A wealth of
glass experience.

The Directors GlasSpace have over 70 years’ collective experience, the principal Director Andrew Vince having worked in the glazing industry for 27 years, starting his career on the factory floor and then designing and fitting glass solutions gaining a multifaceted and solid knowledge of glass and its complexities and possibilities.

“Glass can truly perform some remarkable feats in modern design.”

Glass can truly perform some remarkable feats in modern design. It can be used to heat a space, cool it, it can change colour, it can be used as an inherent structural element of a building and it can be engineered into colossal panel sizes. Working with GlasSpace will bring your visions to life. Contact us online today to start you glass extension design.

Structural glazing
and architectural glass.

GlasSpace specialise in structural glazing solutions, architectural glass and sealant application. From glass house extensions to glass facades. The GlasSpace system has been designed by award-winning architects, structural glass engineers and leading independent test engineers, making our products inspirational, highly durable and secure.

GlasSpace uses commercial glass technology that has been developed over the last 25 years to create a new, contemporary environment which meets the demands and expectations of a modern home. Constructed from toughened glass units which are strong enough to walk on, a GlasSpace is completely safe and easy to maintain.

Latest glass technology.

Our design studio uses the latest specifications of low e thermal coating and argon-filled panels, your GlasSpace is guaranteed to exceed the rigorous new heat efficiency regulations and remains comfortably warm in the harshest of conditions.

We offer a wide range of  options such as solar control glass that cuts out the sun’s harmful rays all our frameless structures incorporate toughened laminated glass beams made of ultra-clear hinged and sliding glass door solutions.

Whether GlasSpace manages the whole project or is part of a larger team lead by your own architects’ team we will work with one goal in mind client satisfaction.

Example glass performance table: visible light transmission 70%, solar factor 37%, and glass U-value 1.0 W/m²K
Illustrative performance example only. Values apply to a particular glazing specification and are not guaranteed for every GlasSpace installation. Project-specific performance must be confirmed for the selected glass.

How is the thermal insulation performance of low-E glass measured?

A U-value measures how readily heat passes through glazing when indoor and outdoor temperatures differ. It is expressed in W/m²K. A lower U-value means better thermal insulation.

Depending on the specification, low-E double glazing can achieve a glass U-value of around 1.0 W/m²K, compared with around 2.7 W/m²K for conventional uncoated double glazing. Suitable triple-glazed units can achieve values as low as 0.5 W/m²K.

These are illustrative glass-unit values, not whole-window or whole-extension ratings. Performance depends on the glass build-up, coatings, cavity widths and gas fill, as well as the framing and installation of the complete system.
