New “Glass in a Box” Product Line Provides Instant Material Availability for Standard Showers, Entrances, and Railings.

The Frameless Hardware Company (FHC), a leading supplier of architectural hardware and glazing supplies, proudly announces the launch of its new On-Demand Stock Glass Division, bringing to market a revolutionary “Glass in a Box” product line. This expansion empowers glaziers and contractors with immediate access to high-demand glass sizes and configurations, significantly streamlining the supply chain and bypassing lengthy lead times typically associated with custom-fabricated glass.

With this launch, FHC becomes a true one-stop shop—offering hardware, installation tools, glazing supplies, and now stocked glass—all from a single source.

“We’re listening to our customers, and oftentimes they need glass now,” said Chris Hanstad, President and CEO of FHC. “This new program is designed to maintain our extreme customer service standards and to complement offerings from our longtime tempering partners. The industry is asking, and we’re delivering.”
