Drivers may not know that their car is actually made of different types of auto glass. In most cases, your windshield and the other panes of glass in your car are made from alternating glass types. If you’ve ever been on the highway at top speed and had a rock or cinder hit your windshield, it may have left a rock or a mark, but it likely didn’t shatter the windshield. That’s because your windshield is made of laminate glass, which isn’t shatter-proof but is rather hard to break. However, if this same rock hit your back glass at that same type of speed, it’s likely the glass would shatter. That is because your back glass is likely made of tempered glass. There are many reasons drivers may like to have a custom cut or have laminated panels added to their other windows. If you’ve been thinking about cutting laminated glass for custom glass installation & repair service in Lake Stevens, look no further than Joe’s Glass Co.
One of the main reasons drivers may want to have laminate panels installed is security reasons. If you think about the windshield analogy, you’ll realize that laminate glass is likely tougher to break. That means that it’s tougher for a thief to break as well. If you live in a high-crime neighborhood where cars are often broken into, the laminate glass may be a good choice.
Also, those who have older cars may have oddly-sized and shaped windows, and they need custom cuts of laminate glass when they need replacements.
