During the 90’s interior decoration, one thing that was very popular was to decorate with glass applications. We can remember the glass displays in our Grandpa’s house.

Now glass looks more stylish with the latest cutting edge technologies. You can make your home more glamorous with glass-tops without any problem.

Glass makes your room look larger:

Installing glass tops that are transparent can make your room larger mainly because you can see through it and there is no visual obstruction. We recommend you to get a shoe rack made of clear glass at the entrance of your home. It’ll impress your first time visitors. 

Office glass countertops

An office is a place where business meetings are organized. Where clients and important people meet for business discussions. So, the office must be decorated to make it attractive. Installing office glass countertops in the entrance area can highly enhance the interior. It looks impressive so consider installing one in your office.

Custom dining table glass top 

To make a dining room more glamorous and clean, install a clear glass dining table. Glass surface is smooth making it easy to clean any leftovers. Bear Glass offers custom dining tables in different shapes and sizes. We call it custom because we can cut and give any shape according to your requirement. 

Interesting texture with kitchen glass-top

Kitchen is the place where we prepare our daily meals. This place becomes the place for unseen micro bacteria so it requires special attention for hygiene. Kitchen glass-tops incorporate both beauty and easy maintenance. Glass surfaces can be sanitized easily. Bear Glass offers thick glass kitchen top that is safe and maintenance-free.

Bathroom glass countertops

There are dozens of glass countertop types available at Bear Glass stocks. You can decorate your bathroom interior with a natural look by installing brushed stainless and metal looking glass countertops. We provide you with multiple colors, patterns, and even glass lighting options.

Frequently asked Mirror Re-silvering questions

Q: Is re-silvering needed?

A: Sometimes mirrors appear to be dirty or streaked on the front surface. The silvering on the back has no problem. So clean the mirror surface properly to check that it has no damage on the front surface.

Q: Is it possible to re-silver a small portion of the mirror?

A: Yes, it is possible to re-silver a portion of your mirror to re-silver. Unfortunately, satisfactory results are not guaranteed and are not always achieved by doing so. If you want the best result a complete re-silvering of the mirror is recommended.

Q: How long does Re-silvering last?

A: The re-silvering should last for decades. However, we can’t control the conditions in which mirrors are hung or mounted. Bathroom mirrors or other mirrors subject to excessive moisture has higher chances of getting disturbed quicker than mirrors in the bed room or other places.

Q: What is used to silver the surface of the mirror?

A: In Earlier mirror making silver was used to coat the glass surface. But in more recent times sputtering powdered aluminum or other compounds have been used in the place of silver. Therefore today, this process is also known as aluminizing. Which makes this service more cost effective.

Q: What if the edge of the m irror has Deterioration?

A: This is very common, frequently occurring on bathroom mirrors where moisture has puddled on the edges. It might not have been installed or sealed properly in the first place. If the mirror is large simple rectangle without bevels it will be cheaper to buy a new mirror than to have it re-silvered. One solution for the problem is to cut off the damaged area and then remount the mirror. Bear Glass also provides mirror cutting services for any thickness.

Q: Does Silver Paint touch up works as re-silvering?

A: No, It doesn’t. Using paint for re-silvering a mirror will get disappointing results. Mirror re-silvering process does involve many steps and techniques that is not possible at home unless you have the proper knowledge.

Lately our customers have been asking us if we have grey glass in stock. And the answer is YES! Pilkington super grey glass combines stunning exterior aesthetics and unsurpassed interior glare control with the best solar control performance of any tinted float glass in the industry. On the outside, low-reflective super grey glass tinted Float Glass offers a dramatic, deep cool-grey appearance that increases visual privacy and dramatically reduces read-through from interior shading devices. Inside, it softens bright daylight and reduces glare, making it perfect for applications near computers and video display screens.

Product features & benefits include:

• An uncoated float glass that provides the performance of a reflective glass.

• Enhanced visual privacy and reduced read-through from interior shading devices.

• Best solar control of any uncoated glass, super grey glass provides the lowest shading coefficient of any float glass and a better shading coefficient than many reflective glass products. This means super grey glass can help enhance interior comfort and reduce cooling loads.

• Unsurpassed light and glare control improves visual privacy and reduces the need for blinds or shades. Super grey glass softens bright daylight and helps eliminate glare, making it the perfect “user-friendly” glass.

• Low interior and exterior reflectance reduces interior glare and minimizes exterior daylight reflectance. Super grey glass is ideal where architectural designs or restrictions prohibit structures with high reflectance.

• Ideal for Skylight applications requiring solar control with very low interior reflection, especially at night.

• Distinctive aesthetics inside and out. Super grey glass offers a deep, cool-grey tint from the exterior, while providing a remarkably crisp, comfortable view from the interior. Super grey glass also provides color-neutral visibility from the inside, resulting in an undistorted, natural view

• Uniform, no-read through look between spandrel and vision glass areas. The uniform appearance of super grey glass may eliminate the need for an opacifier in the spandrel glass.

• Low UV  transmittance that significantly outperforms other tinted and coated glass products. 6mm super grey glass blocks 99% of the sun’s damaging UV rays.

• Excellent Availability,   super grey glass can be inventoried for short lead times and improved control of project costs.

Bevel-Rite was a custom fabricator of mirror and plate glass that was located at 501 Prospect St. Unit 110  Lakewood, NJ 08701. In September 1980, they were the first beveling company in the the state of New Jersey and had grown to be a leading source to the glass and mirror industry.

Unfortunately because Bevelrite closed they’re doors this past year and their customers were left with few alternatives.
