Super Spacer® IG Units Glass Options
Most people usually think of insulated glass units by their lowest common denominator: two lights of glass. A piece of plain float glass in between, if it's a triple pane.
And that's certainly the standard at Glass & Mirror Craft as well. You'll find standard two- and three-pane IG units with Low-E glass to your specifications, with glass in a variety of thicknesses. But we also encourage you to use your imagination. Because we can create IG units using nearly any of the types of glass we stock – including our wide variety of decorative glass.
IG units are available in the following glass and spacer options. Need something you don’t see here? Let us know. We'll work with you to find a solution to any challenge.

The wide variety of glass and spacer thickness options can easily accommodate items inside the glass core, such as roller shades or Venetian or plissé blinds.
Commercial IG Units
IG units for commercial applications require additional structural strength. We build these using Super Seal TriSeal, a flexible silicone foam warm-edge spacer. Just like our residential units, they can be built using nearly any type of glass, including laminated and decorative glass. TriSeal is available in black or gray.
Need a special configuration? Give us a call and we’ll get on it.
