Glazier — Career Preview

Install the glass that defines modern buildings

Glaziers cut, fit, and install glass in storefronts, curtain walls, windows, mirrors, shower doors, and skylights — handling everything from tempered and laminated panels to high-performance insulated units on commercial high-rises.

A day in the life

You arrive at a downtown jobsite, harness up, set suction cups on a 200-lb storefront panel, lift it into place with the team, shim and torque the pressure plates, then weather-seal the perimeter and QC every joint before moving to the next bay.
