To order a custom glass vitrine, send us photos and your basic requirements, we measure on site, prepare a drawing and written specification, and after your approval we manufacture and install it. Clear planning of size, glass type and finish at the start keeps the process smooth and the result exactly what you pictured.

Step 1: Send Your Inquiry and Photos

The process starts with a simple inquiry. Tell us where the vitrine will stand, what you plan to display, and roughly what size you have in mind. Photos of the space, the wall, and any existing furniture help us understand the setting quickly.

If you already have a reference image of a design you like, include it. It saves time and makes it easier to discuss the look, frame style and glass thickness before we move to measurement.

Step 2: On-Site Measurement

Once the inquiry is clear, our team visits to measure the space. Accurate measurement is the foundation of a good custom vitrine, so we check wall straightness, floor levelness, ceiling height and any obstacles such as skirting, switches or uneven surfaces.

  • Exact width, depth and height of the opening or position
  • Door or sliding panel direction
  • Access route for bringing glass and frames into the building

Step 3: Drawing and Written Specification

After measurement, we prepare a technical drawing and a written specification. The drawing shows dimensions, shelf positions and door layout. The specification lists materials, glass type and thickness, frame profile, lock and handle choices, and the finish.

Read both documents carefully. This is the stage where changes are easiest and cheapest to make, so take your time and ask questions about anything that is unclear.

Step 4: Client Approval

Your written approval confirms that the drawing and specification match what you want. We will not start production until you have approved them in writing. If you request changes, we update the drawing and send a revised version for review.

Approval also fixes the details that matter later, such as the exact glass edge finish and lighting provision, so that nothing is left to assumption during manufacturing.

Step 5: Production and Finishing in Our Factory

Production takes place in our workshop on Rival Street in Tel Aviv, where the frames are cut, welded and assembled, and the glass is cut and edged to the approved dimensions. Metal parts receive the agreed finish, such as hot-dip galvanizing or powder coating, before final assembly.

Each piece is checked against the drawing before it leaves the factory, so installation on site goes faster and with fewer adjustments.

Step 6: Installation and Handover

On installation day our team brings the vitrine to the site, positions it, levels and fixes it, and adjusts doors and locks. We check the glass, shelves and hardware together with you before we finish.

Handover includes a short walkthrough of how to open, clean and care for the vitrine, so you can enjoy it right away.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the whole process take?

Timing depends on the complexity of the design and the current workload of the factory. We confirm the schedule with you after the drawing is approved.

Can I change the design after approving the drawing?

Changes are possible, but they may require a revised drawing and approval again. Requesting changes early in the process is the easiest way to avoid delays.

What glass options are available for a vitrine?

We discuss glass type, thickness and edge finish during the specification stage, based on how the vitrine will be used and the look you want. Exact suitability is confirmed with our team.

Do you install the vitrine yourselves?

Yes, installation is handled by our own team, which levels and fixes the unit and checks doors, locks and glass before handover.

Common mistakes to avoid

The most common mistake is approving a drawing without checking the dimensions and glass details against the actual space. Taking a few minutes to review every number before signing saves time and avoids costly corrections later.

Our recommendation

Decide early on the main use of the vitrine and what you will display, because this drives the shelf layout, glass thickness and door design. Send accurate photos and a clear wish list with your first inquiry.

Summary

Ordering a custom glass vitrine follows six clear steps: inquiry, measurement, drawing and specification, approval, factory production, and installation. Careful review at the drawing stage ensures the finished piece matches your space and expectations.
