Floating Glass Shelves
Question
When I asked him about it he said he remembers seeing a metal clip arrangement but can't recall where. I have looked at all my sources and can't seem to find one. The closest arrangement would be cable supports and that may have to work. Any help is appreciated. Forum Responses
From contributor J: We have used Hafeles glass shelf pins with the nylon set screw when used between standing ends (they will fit 1/2") and cr lawrence as well. From the original questioner: I have used all the usual items you guys have mentioned but this particular job has vertical standards in glass and shelves in glass with no holes in the glass verticals. Imagine just butting the shelf into the standard and gluing it there. That is the look the architect is looking for only with some type of metal clip that he supposedly saw somewhere. From contributor R: Hafele, and others, have a UV cured adhesive available for permanently bonding glass to glass (or metal). This should do what you need with no visible hardware. It is the same type of adhesive used to bond your rear view mirror to your windshield. From contributor I: I had a similar but different situation not long ago. I got with the glass supplier that I use, showed him the pictures and architects specs of what was required and he came up with the solution that day. So, maybe try your glass supplier.
