Getting Started

DEFINE YOUR PROJECT SCOPE

First, we need to know the basics:

Project name
The expected square footage of material required for your project*
Anticipated project date

*If full glass elevations or a list of glass sizes and quantities are not available, then an approximate square footage can be used. How to measure will depend on the design type.

WHITE

Bright whites with opacities ranging from 100%-1%

TruEtch™

Colorless sandblast effect

FROST

Frosted finish in misty grey tones

Color – Frosted

Frosted finish in the color of your choice (most common)

Color – Transparent

Transparent finish in the color of your choice (any graphics containing white will still have some level of opacity/privacy)

Black

Rich black tones with opacities ranging from 100%-1%

Color If you require a specific color not found on our selection charts, then we can utilize CMYK color values or, for even more accuracy, we can match commonly used industry color systems such as Pantone or paint color chips.

Opacity

When utilizing our selection charts we would need to know the opacity (identified by the code on the chart) that you have selected. If requesting a CMYK value, Pantone, or commercial paint color then we would need to know your desired level of privacy. These can be categorized as follows:

Transparent — perfectly see through
Translucent — a frosted finish that provides privacy while allowing some light to pass through (most common)
Opaque — although not 100% light blocking, this method produces the richest colors and even allows for a different color or design to be shown on opposite sides of the glass
