Glaziers

Individuals who are responsible for selecting, cutting, installing, replacing and removing glass of all types. Residential glazing involves work such as replacing glass in home windows; installing glass mirrors, shower doors and bathtub enclosures; and fitting glass for tabletops and display cases. On commercial interior projects, glaziers install items such as heavy, often etched, decorative room dividers or security windows. Glazing projects also may involve replacement of storefront windows for establishments such as supermarkets, auto dealerships and banks. In the construction of large commercial buildings, glaziers build metal framework extrusions and install glass panels or curtain walls.
