GLASS OPTIONS

GLASS & MIRROR FINISHES

Edge Profiles

Glass and mirror edge finishing isn’t just a technical step—it’s where safety meets style. There are plenty of edge profile options to choose from and tailor to your project. At its core, edging removes sharp sides to make the glass safe to handle and install. But the right edge treatment also sharpens the overall look, giving the piece a clean, intentional finish.

​

Properly finished edges add strength, reduce the risk of chipping, and improve long-term durability. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference—boosting both appearance and performance. Review the standard edge options below, and if you’re after something specific, additional profiles are available upon request.

Arrised/Seamed Edge

  • Using a sanding belt, the edges of the glass are lightly sanded to produce a safety edge. These edges are used when edges are covered.

  • Applications: Millwork, cupboard doors etc.

Flat Ground Edge

  • Diamond embedded grinding wheels put a Satin finish on the edge, used when reduced reflectivity is required in the edges.

  • Applications: Glass floors, mirror etc.

Flat Polish Edge

  • High gloss finish used when edges are exposed.

  • Applications: Doors, partition walls, etc.

  • Diamond embedded grinding wheels put a Satin finish on the edge radius in the shape of a C, used when reduced reflectivity is require in the edges.

  • Applications: Automotive, mirrors, etc.

Pencil Polished Edge

  • High gloss finish used in more decorative applications.

  • Application: Furniture, Mirrors etc.

Corner Profiles

Standard Corner

A standard polished corner features neatly finished edges for a smooth, clean look. While it’s a common choice, the pointed corner can present a safety concern in certain applications, such as tabletops.

​

Note: Unless otherwise specified, all glass will be fabricated with standard corners.

Dubbed Corner

Dubbed corners are created by lightly sanding the sharp edge by hand, providing a safer alternative but not as precise as radius corners.

Radius Corner

Radius corners are a smart choice when you want to balance good design with practical safety—especially on exposed corners like railings and tabletops.

 

Available in sizes from 1/8″ to 8″, they soften the glass's appearance while reducing sharp edges. The result is a cleaner profile, a more polished finish, and added peace of mind.
