Protection Without Hiding the Art

When clients contact us

• Exposure to vandalism or impact
• Severe weather exposure
• Old exterior coverings that are cloudy or damaged
• Condensation or trapped debris between layers
• Poor ventilation around existing protection
• Need to protect restored panels

Our approach

Protective glazing is not simply another pane placed over stained glass. Spacing, ventilation, drainage, framing, visual reflection and future access all matter. Existing systems are evaluated before recommendations are made, especially when heat or moisture may be trapped.

What the process may include

1. Review the stained glass and existing exterior conditions
2. Evaluate exposure, framing, ventilation and drainage
3. Define appropriate protective material and configuration
4. Coordinate fabrication and access
5. Install the system without obscuring the original artwork
6. Review maintenance and future inspection access
