Cut, assemble, fit, or attach metal-framed glass enclosures for showers, bathtubs, display cases, skylights, solariums, or other structures. Load and arrange glass or mirrors onto delivery trucks, using suction cups or cranes to lift glass. Fasten glass panes into wood sashes or frames with clips, points, or moldings, adding weather seals or putty around pane edges to seal joints. Measure and mark outlines or patterns on glass to indicate cutting lines. Pack spaces between moldings and glass with glazing compounds and trim excess material with glazing knives. Grind or polish glass, smoothing edges when necessary. Install pre-assembled metal or wood frameworks for windows or doors to be fitted with glass panels, using hand tools. Prepare glass for cutting by resting it on rack edges or against cutting tables and brushing thin layer of oil along cutting lines or dipping cutting tools in oil. Set glass doors into frames and bolt metal hinges, handles, locks, or other hardware to attach doors to frames and walls. Cut, fit, install, repair, or replace glass or glass substitutes, such as plastic or aluminum, in building interiors or exteriors or in furniture or other products. Read and interpret blueprints or specifications to determine size, shape, color, type, or thickness of glass, location of framing, installation procedures, or staging or scaffolding materials required.
