For years IQ’s installations teams have installed some of the most pioneering glazing solutions.
Tricky installations and installing glazing on projects with limited access is something our teams are familiar with, and their innovative ways of thinking allow them to easily install glazing where others wouldn’t dare try.
Installing Bespoke Glazing Around the World
Depending on where abouts in the world the project is located, and what level of service the clients requires, IQ can offer a full installation service and costs for sending our team to site can be included in the project quotation.
Alternatively Just the IQ supervisor can go to site and oversee the installation whilst it is carried out by local installation teams, or the systems can be specified on a supply only basis, in which case installation instructions and guidance via email/call/video call will be given by IQ.
For the installation of bespoke glazing such as fire rated glazing systems, the installation needs to be carried out in a very specific way. If fire rated glazing is not installed correctly if may fail to perform in the event of a fire.
Therefore if glazing installation fi not done by IQ it must be done be professional glazing installers.
