Kirti Nagar has one of the largest furniture markets in Asia. Street after street of showrooms, each selling sofas, beds, dining sets and kitchens behind wide glass fronts. For these businesses the glass does real work. It lets a buyer see the display from the road, and it has to survive furniture being moved in and out every day.
Fronts wide enough to move furniture through
A furniture showroom needs an opening wide enough to carry a sofa or a wardrobe in and out. Many here have wide glass fronts with double doors or a large sliding section.
That door takes a real beating. Furniture bumps it, and it is opened far more than an ordinary shop door.
So we fit a floor spring built for heavy use and handles that can take a knock. The cheaper parts look the same on day one and fail within a year.
Glass that shows the display from the road
The point of a showroom front is that a buyer driving past can see the furniture. Large clear panels with thin joints do that best.
At ground level we can usually bring large single panels straight in. The front is always toughened glass, because it is a public entrance and furniture gets knocked against it.
Where you want your name on the glass, frosted lettering is a simple addition.
Replacing a panel without losing trade
A broken front here means lost sales and a showroom that cannot lock up. We come first to make it safe, clearing the glass and boarding the opening.
Then the honest part. A made-to-size toughened panel takes three to five working days to make. Paying more does not shorten it.
We fit the replacement on your weekly off or before opening, so trade is not interrupted.
