Reno@432B - Installation of glass panels

One might think that the glass panels are supplied by the window supplier, but actually it's usually from 2 different suppliers.
The window contractor usually is a registered contractor as he needs to fix up new windows that acts as a safety barrier ie the windows prevents people from falling over.

The glass supplier doesn't necessary have to be registered contractor. It really depends on the glass he fixes whether does it require structural support or not. Sometimes, the glass is decorative like the one in my study cum office. However if the glass is for a railing that prevents people from falling over, then a Professional Engineer aka as  PE is required to calculate the structural loading of the railing and do a formal submission.

anyway, I'm digressing as I don't have any railings in my flat. LOL
