Flat polished edges are the most popular choice of edgework, aside from the simple seamed edge. If the glass in your project is frameless or will not have some type of border that hides the edges, then polished edges are great for that option.
Depending on your type of project, you may need to have holes drilled in the glass. Let’s say it’s a hole in a glass door for the knob or the holes in a glass railing system to fit the hardware. We can drill holes of different diameters for whatever you need.
Our precise glass drilling services are tailored to meet your specifications. From small pilot holes for decorative fixtures to larger openings for structural components, we ensure clean, accurate results every time.

No matter what glass project you need help with, JTG has the solution. We’ve done everything from shower doors to antique furniture, to shelves, windows, doors, tables, you name it! Having been in business for over 40 years, there’s no glass issue–commercial, residential, or industrial–that we haven’t seen and got from our manufacturers.
Builders, and those who craft furniture, know how delicate annealed glass is. When attaching this type of glass to another surface, drilling glass is not an option. Even when using tempered glass, the break pattern makes drilling a real problem. However, drilling through glass is possible when you use Heat Strengthened Glass from Jersey Tempered Glass. Read on to see how JTG has the remedy for a problem that has plagued craftspeople, builders, and DIY-ers.
JTG manufactures Heat Strengthened Glass that is available in a variety of thicknesses. It is two times stronger than annealed glass. Glass has traditionally been a very fragile material, and it is not possible to drill through annealed glass.
Annealed glass, when placed under pressure like that from a drill, will shatter into sharp shards making drilling glass impossible. However, the Heat Strengthened Glass from JTG is stronger, allowing the drilling process to be carried out.
When drilling tempered glass, although it is stronger than annealed glass, it breaks into extremely small non-sharp pieces. This safety glass is perfect for fitting in public spaces due to the nature of how it breaks in a safe manner. However, if you want to attach legs to a glass panel when making a coffee or occasional table, fix a mirror to a vanity section of a fitted wardrobe with screws, or connect more than one panel of glass to each other by drilling tempered glass, you will need to use Heat Strengthened Glass.
Drilling through glass, including drilling through sea glass, can make a project so much simpler. The possibility of being able to do this opens new ideas and methods of working with glass. Whether you want to be drilling glass blocks or panels, now you can undertake your building projects with a new sense of freedom.
The available thicknesses of JTGs Heat Strengthened Glass are:
With this range of thicknesses, JTG has every option for your next project, and it will be a simpler project with the ability to drill the glass you purchase. If you have ever wanted to be drilling through sea glass, our Heat Strengthened Glass is perfect for you.
There are many instances where the ability to drill a sheet of glass would be beneficial. It could speed up the process of attaching the glass to a structure and make the fixings more stable and solid. Now, this is a reality with JTGs Heat Strengthened Glass. It is two times stronger than annealed glass and does not break into tiny pieces like tempered glass. This is the ideal solution to your problems. Ask for an online quote today!
