The company was formed in the 1970’s and has stayed true to its initial values since then –
A very professional team
Excellent service and very tidy, clean workmen. We love our new gates, they are exactly what we wanted, front and back, would definitely recommend Ryan, Ronald and their team.
Excellent service from beginning to end.
Very helpful with initial advice and planning of our patio glass balustrade. The workmanship was first class and the engineers were very friendly and good humoured. The price was very reasonable as well. I would gladly recommend this company.
Amazingly friendly team.
Really impressed by the service and quality of workmanship.. Highly recommend I had a glass balustrade inside and out. Love them.
Great Service from the team at Mourne Craft
They were professional and helpful for the installation of outside Balustrade to a raised Patio Area. I would recommend the team highly.
I got custom structural glass designed
And installed on my steel spine staircase. From start to finish the Mourne Craft team were a pleasure to work with. If you are looking for bespoke stairs or structural glass, look no further
Overall, a first class service from Ronald & Team.
So helpful and reassuring during the order process, which was very important as the installation was in Co Wicklow. I needn't have worried as the client is extremely happy with her glass balustrade stairs and balcony. Overall an excellent company, fantastic people and high quality products at competitive prices. Highly recommend Mourne Craft. Thank you, Pearse

Our almost 5 decades of experience means that we have seen every situation and need. No matter how unusual or complex your challenge, we can help you.
And one additional fact helps us to stand out from other suppliers. On top of our experience, thousands of installations, local knowledge, partnerships with leading builders, contractors and architects and the quality of our team.
BUT, along the way, from 1992 to 2008, he left the family business for 17 years to work directly inside the glass industry. He held multiple roles but became a true domain expert in the use of glass, glass types and glass manufacturing. He was involved in standards discussions in the industry body - the Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF). This experience means that we can far better specify the best and safest glass option for your specific needs. One of the roles Ronald held in Toughglass Ltd was Quality Manager and he believes this was the most beneficial learning experience of all. He has taken this knowledge into Mourne Craft and has made quality a corner stone of the business.
Put simply, we know more about the core material we are working with. This means you can trust us to do the best job, with the right materials. Speaking of that, please look at the section below (Let’s talk glass) for our insight into glass types and your installation.
Our experience means that we are comfortable and confident carrying out curved glass installing, something many others avoid. We give you more options…
The choice of supplier for glass balustrade installations is a major decision for you. We like to think we are simply better AND have more knowledge than our competitors in creating high quality and safe glass walls and glass fencing. Here are just some of the reasons to use Mourne Craft –
In this section we want to help you understand the differences better. AND we want to assess the potential dangers in using the wrong type of glass. Here’s our simple review of the three core types of glass used in our work. There are dozens of variations, but these are the main ones you need to think of. Each glass type can come in multiple thicknesses…
This is you might call ‘standard’ glass. We all know what happens when you drop a glass bottle or wine glass on a hard floor. Good for some things but totally unsuitable for glass balustrades, walls, or fences.
On the surface, this is the perfect solution for balustrades. This glass type is super-heated to about 700c, and the complex process that creates it ensures it is around five times stronger than floating glass. If heavily impacted, it breaks down into small, almost square pieces that are safe to pick up. A big benefit. BUT we often see a potential safety problem with this material as we visit sites. What is it? Look at the bus stop picture, above. We are sure you have seen something...
This is the glass type we often specify. Imagine two layers of tempered glass, with a clear sheet between them (see the image above). If one layer gets destroyed, it’s very unlikely the other would go at the same time. So, it’s much stronger. But there’s another big benefit. The EVA sheet that joins the two layers will hold the whole structure together, so no ‘instant hole’ appears. This can be a literal life saver. Many suppliers use PVB for the 'sandwich' material in external balustrades. However, we use EVA which is even more corrosion resistant and a higher standard.
We can advise on your individual project ensuring you have the right grade of steel and the correct thickness of glass in your project to ensure safety and to meet building regulations.
