Glass and glazing in Newcastle
Newcastle is a northern KwaZulu-Natal industrial town in the Drakensberg foothills, with older suburbs like Lennoxton and Fernwood and newer complexes. Factory offices, shopping centres and the town centre need safety glass for entrances and shopfronts, and homes add aluminium windows and patio doors. The weather swings from hot, stormy summers with hail and lightning to cold winters with hard frost, so double glazing is worthwhile and large panes can crack from thermal stress. Crime concerns keep laminated glass and security film in demand. Local glaziers handle repairs, while toughened panes are ordered from Gauteng or Durban processors, a long haul that adds lead time.
Typical glass roofs and canopies requests in the area come from:
- Family homes: a glass canopy over the front door or a glass-roofed patio next to the braai
- Offices, clinics and schools: a glass canopy over an office entrance or a skylight above an atrium or reception
- Shops, restaurants and malls: a glass canopy over a shopfront or covered walkway that keeps shoppers dry
- Apartments and complexes: a glass canopy over a ground-floor patio or a skylight in a top-floor flat
- Security and golf estates: a laminated glass roof over a covered entertainment area or architectural entrance walkway
- New builds and developments: overhead glass specified with the engineer before the roof structure and beams are built
