Glass Selection
The right glass makes the difference between a case that merely contains items and one that showcases them at their absolute best.
Heat-strengthened glass that is four to five times stronger than standard glass. When broken, it shatters into small, relatively harmless pieces.
Best for: Retail displays, trophy cases, high-traffic environments
Two glass layers bonded with a PVB interlayer that holds the glass together if broken.
Best for: Jewelry cases, high-value collections, security-critical displays
Glass with a specialized coating or interlayer that blocks up to 99% of ultraviolet radiation.
Best for: Museum cases, art galleries, archival collections, textiles
Glass with a multi-layer optical coating on one or both surfaces that reduces reflection from approximately 8% to less than 1%.
Best for: Museum vitrines, jewelry showcases, photography galleries
Glass manufactured with reduced iron content that eliminates the green tint visible in standard glass edges.
Best for: All premium display applications, color-critical displays
Capabilities
Integrated LED strip lighting, adjustable spotlights, and fiber optic accent lights illuminate displayed items from every angle. Museum-grade LEDs provide precise color temperature control (2700K to 5000K) with minimal UV emission to protect sensitive items.
Sealed display cases with integrated silica gel trays, micro-climate generators, and humidity sensors maintain precise environmental conditions. Temperature stability within plus or minus 2 degrees Fahrenheit and humidity control within plus or minus 5% RH protect vulnerable artifacts.
Electronic locks with key-card or PIN access and full audit trail logging. High-security cases feature multi-point locking, tamper-evident seals, and alarm contacts that integrate with your building security system. Key-operated locks available for simpler applications.
Tempered glass shelves on concealed bracket systems allow height adjustment in half-inch increments. Shelves are available in clear, frosted, or back-lit configurations. Weight ratings from 25 to 100 pounds per shelf depending on span and glass thickness.
Motorized rotating bases showcase three-dimensional objects from every angle. Variable speed control, programmable stop positions, and wireless remote operation. Platforms available in velvet, leather, acrylic, and custom finishes.
Display case bases fabricated in wood, metal, stone, or solid surface materials to match your interior design. Concealed storage compartments, cable management, and ventilation integrate seamlessly into the base construction.
How We Work
We discuss what you are displaying, the environment, security requirements, lighting preferences, and design vision.
Our team creates detailed drawings with glass type, dimensions, hardware, lighting layout, and base construction specifications.
Glass panels are cut, tempered or laminated, coated, and edge-finished. Bases, frames, and hardware are fabricated and assembled.
We deliver cases to your location and perform final assembly, leveling, lighting calibration, and security system integration.
Aftercare
Anti-reflective and UV-filtering coatings require specific cleaning procedures. We provide cleaning kits and training for your staff. Microfiber cloths and pH-neutral cleaners preserve coating performance and prevent scratching. Never use ammonia-based cleaners on coated glass.
Climate-controlled cases rely on gasket integrity to maintain temperature and humidity targets. We recommend annual gasket inspection and silica gel replacement. Degraded gaskets allow uncontrolled air exchange that puts sensitive artifacts at risk.
LED lighting systems last 50,000 to 100,000 hours, but output diminishes over time. We monitor light levels and color temperature during maintenance visits and replace LED modules before they fall below museum-standard illumination thresholds.
Hinges, locks, and drawer slides require periodic lubrication and adjustment. Electronic locks need battery replacement and firmware updates. We service all case hardware during scheduled maintenance visits to prevent operational failures.
