## What we handle here

- **Drilling and edgework in-house** Holes, countersinks, and seamed, ground, or polished edges, finished here before the glass ships.
- **Large-format CNC cutting** Shapes, notches and radii cut from your DXF or DWG on lites up to 90" × 144".
- **Tempering under the same roof** Cut, printed and tempered in one building, so a print revision doesn't ripple through three subcontractors.
- **Quotes in a day, parts in a week** Most quotes go out within one business day; production typically ships in 5–10.

## FAQ

### Can you cut tempered glass to size after it's tempered?

No. Tempered glass cannot be cut, drilled, or edged after it leaves the furnace. Every hole and notch has to be on the drawing before we run it. Send the finished size. We cannot trim it later.

### Can I bring in a template?

Yes. A cardboard or paper template is the safest way to match an odd opening, and you can drop it at the shop.

### Do you install?

We fabricate; we don't install. We can point you toward installers who buy from us.
