Popular applications in Almere
In Almere, custom glass is widely used for sustainability, new construction, renovation, apartments, single-family homes, shops and modern interiors. Due to the many terraced houses, detached houses, modern homes and business premises, there are many different applications.
Common situations are:
- HR++ installing glass in existing window frames;
- replace old double glazing with better insulating glass;
- custom glass for apartments;
- custom mirror for bathrooms;
- custom shower enclosure for bathroom renovation;
- glass table top for dining table, desk or coffee table;
- glass kitchen back wall;
- safety glass on low windows or doors;
- sound-resistant glass on busy roads;
- glass for shops, offices and catering;
- glass for veranda, windbreak or balustrade.
Especially when it comes to sustainability, it is important to carefully check in advance which glass fits. HR++ glass is often possible, but with larger glass areas, sliding doors or existing window frames you must always pay attention to thickness, weight and installation.
Order glass for homes in Almere
Many homes in Almere have relatively large glass surfaces. Think of sliding doors, garden doors, large windows and modern facades. This provides a lot of light, but makes the right choice of glass extra important.
Replacing glass can be interesting for:
- cold windows;
- condensation on the inside;
- old double glazing;
- leaking double glazing;
- higher energy costs;
- noise pollution;
- large glass areas;
- sliding doors;
- renovation of window frames;
- making the home more sustainable.
With existing window frames you should always check what glass thickness is possible. HR++ glass often, but not always, fits without adjustments to glazing beads, rubbers or ventilation grilles.
Order glass for apartments in Almere
Custom glass is also often useful for apartments. Think of insulating glass, mirrors, shower walls, balcony glazing, table tops or glass for interior doors.
Check apartments in advance:
- is there an elevator?
- Does the glass plate fit in the elevator?
- does the glass fit through the entrance?
- are corridors and bends spacious enough?
- does the glass have to go through the stairwell?
- can the delivery person get close to the entrance?
- is there enough space to safely place glass?
- Is the glass plate not too heavy to move yourself?
This is extra important for large mirrors, shower walls, table tops and glass walls. So not only measure the place where the glass will be placed, but also the route inside.
HR++ order glass in Almere
HR++ glass is a popular choice for better insulation. It retains heat better than single glazing or old double glazing. This makes a home feel more comfortable and heat loss can be limited.
HR++ glass is interesting for:
- replace old double glazing;
- replace single glass;
- cold drop at windows;
- condensation on the inside;
- renovation;
- sustainability;
- homes with wooden, plastic or aluminum frames;
- apartments;
- business premises.
Please note: HR++ glass has a certain package thickness. The existing frame must therefore have sufficient space. Also check the condition of glazing beads, rubbers, sealant seams and ventilation grilles. Do you want to know how much you save? Calculate the U-value of your glass in advance.
Triple glass in Almere
Triple glass insulates even better than HR++ glass. It is mainly used in new construction, very well insulated homes or renovations where window frames are also replaced.
Triple glass can be interesting for:
- new construction;
- large glass areas;
- homes with high insulation requirements;
- underfloor heating;
- low temperature heating;
- very energy-efficient renovations;
- modern homes with lots of glass.
Please note: triple glass is thicker and heavier than HR++ glass. It does not simply fit into every existing frame. Therefore, always check whether the frame, glazing beads and fittings are suitable. Read in our knowledge base when triple glazing is and is not useful.
Glass for sliding doors and large windows
In Almere there are many homes with sliding doors, garden doors and large windows. With this type of glass, weight, insulation and safety are important.
For large windows and facades, please note:
- glass thickness;
- total package thickness;
- weight of the window;
- insulation value;
- safety glass if necessary;
- sound insulation;
- sun protection;
- condition of frame and fittings;
- accessibility upon delivery;
- mounting and lifting options.
Large windows are heavy and vulnerable. Therefore, have it checked in advance whether the glass fits in the frame and can be safely transported to the installation location.
Soundproof glass in Almere
Do you live or work on a busy road, near a railway line, in a lively street or near activity? Then sound-insulating glass can provide more peace inside.
Sound-resistant glass is interesting for:
- busy roads;
- apartments on the street side;
- houses near traffic;
- offices;
- bedrooms on the facade;
- business premises;
- spaces where peace and quiet are important.
Please note: sound insulation does not only depend on the glass. Window frames, cracks, ventilation grilles and connections also determine how much noise enters. Good gap sealing is therefore important. In our article about [soundproof glass], we explain what really works](/kennisbank/geluidswerend-glas-wat-werkt).
Order a custom mirror in Almere
A custom mirror is suitable for bathrooms, bedrooms, halls, shops, hair salons, gyms and catering establishments. With customization you determine the size, shape and finish yourself.
Custom mirrors are often used for:
- bathrooms;
- Toilets;
- bedrooms;
- wardrobes;
- hall or entrance;
- shop interiors;
- fitting rooms;
- gyms;
- hair salons;
- catering establishments.
For a custom mirror, pay attention to the dimensions, edge finish, mounting and moisture load. Good ventilation is important in bathrooms to prevent damage to mirror edges. You can find more tips in our article about a custom mirror.
Custom shower enclosure in Almere
A custom shower enclosure gives a bathroom a sleek and modern look. Customization is especially useful for renovations or smaller bathrooms, because standard sizes do not always fit well.
Toughened safety glass is usually used for shower walls. This glass is stronger than normal glass and breaks more safely when it does break.
Please note:
- width and height;
- glass thickness;
- clear glass or frosted glass;
- anti-limescale treatment;
- confirmation and attachment;
- profile color;
- floor and wall finishing;
- direction of rotation at doors;
- space for mounting.
Always measure accurately. Walls and floors are not always completely straight, especially in renovated bathrooms. Also read what you should pay attention to with a custom shower enclosure.
Custom glass table top in Almere
A glass table top protects your table and gives it a neat appearance. You can use it for dining tables, coffee tables, desks, counters and catering tables.
For table tops, tempered glass is often chosen. That is stronger and safer than standard glass. The edge finish is also important, because the edges are visible and are often touched.
NB:
- correct thickness;
- rounded corners;
- flat poly cut edges;
- clear or extra clear glass;
- weight of the glass;
- surface of the table;
- protection against sliding.
For large table tops, delivery is much safer than transport yourself.
Glass kitchen back wall in Almere
A glass kitchen back wall is sleek, hygienic and easy to clean. The glass is placed behind the counter, sink or hob.
Toughened glass is usually used for kitchen back walls, especially behind a hob. Tempered glass can withstand impacts and temperature differences better.
You can choose:
- clear glass;
- extra clear glass;
- frosted glass;
- lacquered glass;
- colored glass;
- glass with recesses for sockets.
Please note: holes and recesses must be determined exactly in advance. With tempered glass, these cannot be adjusted afterwards - you choose them in the configurator.

- glass counters;
- partition walls;
- office walls;
- table tops;

Glass for veranda, windbreak or balustrade
In gardens, balconies, terraces and outdoor spaces, glass is often used for verandas, canopies, windbreaks and balustrades. Glass provides light and views, but can also provide shelter and safety.
Safety is important for outdoor use. Toughened glass, Laminated glass or Toughened-laminated glass are often chosen, depending on the application.
NB:
- height of the glass;
- wind load;
- risk of falling through;
- fastening system;
- glass thickness;
- weight;
- outdoor use;
- edge finishing;
- assembly.
For roof glass, balustrades or height differences, the glass must always be suitable as safety glass.
What should you pay attention to when delivering glass in Almere?
Glass delivery in Almere sometimes requires extra preparation. Particularly for apartments, large glass panes, business premises or wide glass fronts, it is important that delivery is well planned.
Before ordering, check:
- is the delivery address easily accessible?
- is there loading and unloading space?
- can the glass be placed safely?
- does the glass have to go to a floor?
- is there an elevator?
- does the glass fit through doors, corridors and stairwells?
- is someone present at delivery?
- isn't the glass too heavy to move yourself?
- are there any restrictions on the building or site?
For large or heavy glass plates, it is wise to check in advance whether delivery is practical.
Measure glass before ordering
Good measuring is essential for custom glass. A small measurement error can cause the glass to not fit. Accuracy is especially important with insulating glass, shower walls and glass with holes or recesses.
When measuring, please note:
- width;
- height;
- glass thickness;
- rebate size;
- clearance all around;
- squareness;
- edge finishing;
- holes or recesses;
- direction of rotation at doors;
- position of attachment;
- weight of the glass.
Measure in multiple places. Window frames, walls and floors are not always completely straight. Are you unsure about the size? Please first follow our measuring instructions or contact contact before ordering.
Select glass thickness
The correct glass thickness depends on the application. A mirror requires a different thickness than a table top, shower wall or balustrade.
| Application | Commonly used thickness |
|---|---|
| Mirror | Often 4 or 6 mm |
| Table top | Often 6, 8, 10 or 12 mm |
| Shower enclosure | Often 8 or 10 mm tempered glass |
| Kitchen back wall | Often 6 mm tempered glass |
| Wall shelf | Depending on load and confirmation |
| Windshield | Often tempered or tempered-laminated glass |
| Balustrade | Laminated or toughened safety glass |
| Roof glass | Laminated safety glass |
| Windows | Depending on frame and insulation requirements |
So don't choose glass thickness solely on price. Safety, weight, size and mounting are just as important.
