Specialist Glass for Film, TV & Stage Productions
Bespoke Glazing for Set Builds, Staging, Studio Furniture & Real-World Replacements
At Hamilton Glass Products, we supply, process and replace specialist glass for film, television, theatre and commercial set builds, as well as real-world residential and commercial properties. From bespoke cut-to-size panels and mirrors for sets, to urgent replacement glazing for broken or damaged glass in homes and live filming locations, we support productions and property owners with reliable, safety-focused glazing solutions across Surrey, South West London and the wider Greater London area.
Modern productions demand materials that look authentic on camera, perform safely on set, and can be delivered to strict schedules. Real homes and locations demand fast, professional replacement when glass is damaged. Hamilton Glass provides the technical expertise, fabrication capability and responsive service required for both controlled production environments and live residential settings.
Glass in Film, TV & Theatre Set Design
Glass is a powerful visual material on screen and stage. It creates light, depth, reflection and separation within sets while maintaining realism. We regularly supply glass for:
Interior sets (offices, apartments, labs, shops)
Stage scenery and backdrops
Temporary partitions and screens
Shopfronts and interior glazing for location builds
Mirrors for camera angles and visual depth
Decorative glass for period and contemporary scenes
Safety on Set – Using the Right Glass
Safety is critical on live sets with cast, crew and equipment moving around the space. We advise on and supply:
Toughened safety glass
Laminated safety glass
Polished and arrissed edges
Drilled panels for secure fixings
Break-safe solutions where required
We can assist production teams with technical guidance to support risk assessments and method statements for set builds and staging.

Glass Table Tops for TV Sets, Food Shows, News Desks & Commentary Boxes

Food and cooking TV shows (worktops, prep stations, island tops)
News desks and broadcast studios

Exhibition and media presentation stands

Fast Turnaround & Replacement for Studio Furniture
Studio environments are fast-paced and often require rapid replacement of scratched or damaged glass table tops. Hamilton Glass supports fast turnaround fabrication and matching replacements to maintain continuity across episodes or seasons.
Replacement Glass for Broken or Damaged Sets & Real-World Locations
Productions frequently operate in real properties and live locations across Surrey and South West London. Accidental damage can occur during builds or filming. Hamilton Glass provides responsive replacement glazing for:
Broken windows and doors
Cracked or shattered panels
Damaged mirrors
Shopfront and interior glazing
Temporary set elements damaged during production
Where required, we can also provide temporary make-safe solutions to secure areas prior to final replacement glazing.
This service is equally valuable for homeowners and commercial clients who need fast, professional replacement glass following accidental breakage.
Temporary vs Permanent Installations
Production environments often require glass that is:
Installed temporarily
Removed, stored or reused
Transported between locations
We advise on fixing methods, packaging and handling to support temporary installations and de-rigging, helping reduce breakage and downtime.
Discretion & Confidentiality for Productions & Private Homes
Many productions and private properties operate under strict confidentiality. Hamilton Glass works with a privacy-first approach:
NDAs available
No photography or filming without consent
No sharing of project details
Discreet delivery and site conduct
