Structural Glazing

ABI Aluminium is a trusted provider of structural and architectural glass supporting window systems in the UK. We specialize in the installation of high-quality structural glazed curtain walls. These remarkable facades create a seamless appearance, with the glass expertly bonded to an aluminium or stainless steel frame on the building’s interior.

The glass units are typically supported by dead load supports fixed to the frames, although we also offer unsupported systems for those seeking a unique design. In such cases, a larger silicone bite is necessary to single-handedly support the weight of the glass. Trust ABI Aluminium for all your structural glazing needs. Get a quote today.

Checks are conducted in order to accurately determine the necessary amount of structural silicone for our window systems at ABI Aluminium. Our comprehensive assessment includes obtaining technical data from reliable sources such as the system supplier, glass unit manufacturer, and structural sealant applicators.

Additionally, we consider vital information such as the number of sides that require structural bonding, as well as whether the wall is vertical or sloping. Once all this essential data is gathered alongside the intended grid system and wind loading calculations, our sealant manufacturer can ascertain the precise quantity of silicone product required to effectively bond the glass to the frame. At ABI Aluminium, we prioritize the utmost precision and efficiency in our glass supporting window systems, ensuring that our installations meet the highest standards of structural integrity.
