In the final Chinatown custom tempered glass planning scope, send a full-opening photo, close details, rough dimensions, the Chinatown address or ZIP code and whether the job is residential or commercial. This detail belongs in the Chinatown fabrication or repair plan.
Are rough dimensions enough to order custom glass?
No. Before the Chinatown order is approved, they are useful for estimating, but final fabrication should use confirmed field measurements. Use the actual Chinatown site conditions to verify this point.
