Commercial Glazing System Performance
22nd August 2012
Due to the increasing amount of commercial buildings in environment it comes as no surprise that glass is one of the most ubiquitous materials in the modern world.We use it to cover roofs, Atriums, doors, windows as well as balconies and ballustrades.
Taking over a brand new complex or office block with stunning designs can be exhilarating, but even the newest buildings can hide a ticking time bomb.
The integrity of the finished stucture stands and falls by the front line of defence namely the external seals, pressure caps, joints and the drainage system.
If any of these are flawed then the system will deteriorate and result in leaks and possible damage to internal equipement and finishes. But it is often impossible to see these problems - especially on high level and difficult to see glazing areas.
Here are the steps to take in order to ensure the best performance of your Commercial Glazing system:-
1 - Arrange for a no obligation inspection (To spot any failures and potential problems)
2 - Set up a maintenance schedule with a reputable company to ensure your glazing remains in top condition.
3. - Ensure the company you use has a track record of many years in the industry, and holds all industry qualifications for the works undertaken.
