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.

Bespoke Fabrication for Set Builds & Staging

Hamilton Glass provides full in-house processing to support creative requirements, including:

  • Glass cut to size

  • Shaped and templated glass

  • Drilled holes and cut-outs

  • CNC-cut glass

  • Mirrors (standard, antique, tinted)

  • Frosted, sandblasted and decorative glass

Fast Turnaround for Production Timelines

We understand production schedules change. Our workshop capability supports:

  • Short lead-time fabrication

  • Emergency replacement panels

  • Pre-production planning

  • Phased deliveries to studios and locations

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

Hamilton Glass supplies bespoke glass table tops for film and television studios, food and cooking shows, news desks, commentary boxes and broadcast environments. These applications require glass that looks exceptional on camera, performs safely under studio lighting, and withstands regular use during production.

We provide cut-to-size and shaped glass table tops for:

  • Food and cooking TV shows (worktops, prep stations, island tops)

  • News desks and broadcast studios

  • Commentary boxes and pundit desks

  • Interview tables and studio furniture

  • Exhibition and media presentation stands

Technical Requirements for Broadcast Glass Table Tops

Glass for studio and broadcast use is specified to meet both visual and safety requirements, including:

  • Toughened safety glass

  • Laminated safety glass

  • Polished edges for a premium on-camera finish

  • Low-iron glass for accurate colour rendering under studio lighting

  • Tinted or anti-glare options where required

  • Drilled holes and cut-outs for cable management

  • Shaped and templated panels for bespoke desk designs

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
