Custom Glass Cutting Services
in Austin, TX
At Alamo Glass, custom glass cutting isn’t just something we do on the side — it’s one of our core services. While we’re known for our shower enclosures and mirror installations, we’ve been trusted for over 50 years by homeowners, contractors, and designers throughout Austin for fast, precision glass cutting. Whether you need a single replacement pane or custom-shaped glass for a one-of-a-kind project, our team delivers exactly what you need. We specialize in supporting unique and creative projects that go beyond the usual applications — from built-in shelving and fireplace surrounds to custom display cases, art installations, wine room enclosures, antique furniture restoration, custom shelving, cabinet inserts, protective panels, and decorative art pieces. Whatever you can imagine, we’re ready to help make it happen.
Why Choose Alamo Glass for Custom Glass Cutting?
- It’s What We Do Best: Unlike others who only cut glass as part of a larger install, we provide standalone glass cutting as a primary service.
- In-House Fabrication: All cutting and fabrication are done at our Austin shop, ensuring speed, accuracy, and quality control.
- Glass Cut to Fit: Bring your measurements, templates, or old glass, and we’ll cut a perfect match — flat, curved, angled, or beveled.
- Walk-Ins Welcome: Stop by with your project. We often provide same-day or next-day turnaround for common cuts.
- We Handle the Unusual: Need an uncommon size, shape, or edge treatment? No problem. We specialize in meeting unusual specifications and custom projects others won’t take on.

Our Custom Glass Cutting Process
Custom glass projects can feel overwhelming at first — but they don’t have to be. If you’re looking for custom glass cutting in Austin, our team at Alamo Glass makes the entire process simple, precise, and stress-free. From the first consultation to final installation, we handle everything in-house so you know exactly what to expect and can trust that your project is in expert hands.
1. Consultation & Project Review
Every project starts with a conversation. Whether you bring in a template, visit our shop, or call with your idea, our experienced team will discuss your goals, timeline, and the best type of glass for your application.
2. Measurements & Template Creation
Accurate measurements are essential for a perfect fit. You can provide your own template, or our team can help create one. For certain projects, we offer on-site measurement services to ensure every detail is precise.
3. Glass Selection & Cutting
Once measurements are confirmed, we help you choose the right glass — clear, tempered, textured, mirrored, or custom specialty options. Then, our skilled technicians cut your glass to exact specifications using precision tools and industry-leading techniques.
4. Edge Finishing & Custom Details
We offer a variety of edge finishes, from simple seamed edges to polished, beveled, or decorative options. This step gives your piece a clean, professional look and ensures safety during handling and installation.
5. Quality Check & Final Delivery / Installation
Before your piece leaves the shop, it goes through a careful inspection to ensure accuracy and finish quality. You can pick it up at our Austin location, or we can arrange for delivery and professional installation for a perfect fit.
