Latest All-Glass Office Partition Installation
We just finished installing the beautiful 1/2" tempered glass wall partitions, shown below, in a
new international business office in Sunny Isles Beach, Florida. The system is all-glass and completely
frameless, using only decorative mini-clamps between each panel. The 105" tall panels were installed in brushed
steel U-channel and the doors use a patch system with overhead concealed closers. The all-glass enclosures show off beautifully
the Venetian plaster finished walls, created by master craftsmen using wonderfully lively colors.

Traffic Jam from Glass Deliveries
The photo below was taken this afternoon outside our warehouse as 3 big glass delivery trucks arrrive
nearly simultaneously (a fourth had just left) with big loads of mirrors, shower enclosures and storefront glass. We
are keeping busy during the holidays and are hoping this is a sign of things to come in 2012!

Mirrored Nightstands by Carlo
Carlo admires the result of his work installing mirrors on 2 nightstands for LK Fine Design (www.lkfinedesign.com). It takes a steady hand and a lot of patience to produce beautiful pieces like these.
Our New Van Glass Rack - Engineered and Installed by Doors, Inc.Rolando and Rolando put the finishing touches on our new custom all-aluminum glass rack. The rack frame was designed by Avery Glass & Mirror. Doors, Inc. (www.doorsmiami.com) engineered the support system to minimize the use of heavy steel, reducing it to just 6 small steel brackets,
completely hidden from view under the van body. The expert aluminum welders of Doors, Inc. did an impeccable job
of welding the aluminum frame, installing it on the base and securing it to the rack.

Website Woes Almost Fixed
For some unknown reason, the top 3 pages of our website vanished a few days ago and we just discovered
it today. We just finished reconstructing them (more or less) from an earlier saved copy and are mystified by the whole
thing. Our apologies to those who were looking for "architectural glass," "frameless shower enclosures,"
and "table tops" and were unable to find them. They're back, although we are still in the process of adding
text. This was a good lesson for us in the importance of checking and backing up our website often!

Custom-fabricated 3/4 low-iron glass table table for Miami designerToday we delivered this beautiful custom 3/4" low-iron tempered glass table which we designed and
fabricated ourselves The base was assembled using several different sizes of threaded rods and steel standoff bases
and caps. Our customer, a local interior designer, was so happy with it that as soon as we delivered it she ordered
another one!
The table is quite large, 42 by 120 inches (107 x 305 cm) and weighs about 600 lbs. (273 kg), so it
was very important to have a very stable base. The end supports are connected to 2 pieces running the length of the of
the top.
The quality of the photos is a little fuzzy because our installers forgot to charge their camera battery and had
to use their phone, but you get the idea.
Now it's time to go to work on the next glass table!

Impact Storefront Installation Requires Skill and Strength
Fortunately, our installers have both. Rolando strikes a pose in front of some very
heavy impact storefront panels he helped install recently. He is our strongest guy, but he did need a little
help.

Just Completed - Custom Mirrors for Caribbean Duty-free ShopsWe just completed another order of custom mirrors with glass frames and glass and stainless steel standoff
bases to be placed in duty-free shops in the Caribbean. The job required lots of drilling of holes in 3/8"
glass, meticulous assembly to avoid contact between the glass and metal, and careful packing and double boxing.
The
first photo below shows the mirror and the second shows the very end of the process, packing the final box. The packing
was almost as big a job as the glass!

and will be reappearing soon. To see more of the pieces, go to the Avery Glass Gallery tab.
