Customization Capability

Custom Drilled Glass Hole, Slot & Recess Options

Precision Round & Small-Diameter Holes

Precision round holes can be produced for mounting, buttons, sensors, wiring and connectors. Small-diameter holes can be evaluated according to the selected glass material, thickness, hole depth and processing method.

Custom-Shaped Openings & Cutouts

CNC and suitable laser processes can be evaluated for non-circular holes, elongated slots, internal cutouts, notches and other irregular openings required by the finished product design.

Narrow-Edge Hole Layouts

Where holes must be positioned close to a narrow glass border, the hole diameter, edge distance, glass thickness, material and strengthening requirement should be reviewed together before the layout is confirmed.

Non-Through Blind Slots & Recessed Areas

Selected projects can use CNC grinding or milling to create non-through blind slots, grooves and recessed key areas without fully penetrating the glass. Depth, remaining glass thickness and surrounding geometry must be confirmed from the drawing.

Repeated & Multiple-Hole Patterns

Continuous hole layouts and repeated multi-hole patterns can be produced according to drawings for control panels, speaker areas, ventilation features and other equipment interfaces, subject to spacing and edge-strength review.

Anti-Glare Treatment

AG treatment can reduce strong glare and improve viewing comfort for glass used over displays and control interfaces.

Drilled glass anti-fingerprint coating service

Anti-fingerprint Coating

AF coating provides an easy-clean surface for frequently touched cover glass and control-panel applications.

Custom drilled glass chemical strengthening

Strengthening After Drilling & Machining

When drilled glass requires strengthening, the fabrication sequence must be planned carefully. Hole drilling, cutouts and other mechanical machining are normally completed before chemical strengthening or other approved strengthening processes.

Why Process Sequence Matters

Holes and cutouts introduce edges and stress-sensitive areas into the part. Completing the required geometry before strengthening helps avoid machining a finished strengthened glass component.

Project Review

  • Glass material and thickness
  • Hole diameter and position
  • Hole-to-edge and hole-to-hole spacing
  • Final strengthening requirement

Technical FAQ

Custom Drilled Glass FAQ

What is drilled glass?

Drilled glass is glass that has been precision processed to create holes, slots, cutouts or other openings for mounting, buttons, sensors, cameras, connectors and other product-integration requirements.

What types of holes and openings can be made in custom glass?

Depending on the drawing and manufacturing feasibility, custom glass can include precision round holes, small-diameter holes, custom-shaped holes, slots, internal cutouts, edge notches, blind slots or recessed areas, and continuous or repeated multi-hole patterns.

Can drilled glass hole size, shape and position be customized?

Yes. Hole diameter, shape, quantity, position and layout can be defined by the customer drawing. The final design should also consider glass thickness, material, hole-to-hole spacing, edge distance and any strengthening requirement.

Can holes be drilled after glass is tempered or strengthened?

Mechanical drilling, blind-slot machining and cutout processing are generally completed before thermal tempering or chemical strengthening. Machining an already strengthened glass component can create a high risk of damage or breakage, so the process sequence should be confirmed before production.

How close can a drilled hole be to the edge of the glass?

There is no single universal distance for every project. Narrow-edge hole layouts can be evaluated, but the suitable hole-to-edge spacing depends on hole diameter, glass thickness, material, part geometry and strengthening requirements. The drawing should be reviewed before final dimensions are confirmed.

Can drilled glass be combined with printing, AG, AR or AF treatments?

Yes. Depending on the project, drilled glass can be combined with silk-screen printing and compatible AG anti-glare, AR anti-reflective or AF anti-fingerprint surface treatments. The production sequence is selected according to the glass material, strengthening requirements and finished specification.

What types of glass products commonly require custom drilling?

Custom drilling is commonly used for cover glass, display glass, touch screen glass, control panels, sensor windows and technical equipment front panels that require openings for controls, cameras, sensors, mounting hardware or connectors.

Can GelivableGlass manufacture drilled cover glass to customer drawings?

Yes. GelivableGlass manufactures custom drilled cover glass and precision glass components to customer drawings, including round holes, shaped openings, slots, cutouts, recessed areas and repeated hole patterns. Feasibility is reviewed according to glass material, thickness, hole geometry, edge distance and strengthening requirements.

Can custom drilled glass be produced from prototype to batch production?

Yes. GelivableGlass supports drawing review, sample development and prototype validation before repeat batch production. Production planning depends on the glass material, thickness, hole layout, machining complexity and required finishing processes.

What information is needed for a drilled glass quotation?

Please provide the overall glass dimensions, thickness, quantity and a drawing showing hole geometry, diameter, quantity, position, spacing, edge distance and any slots, blind recesses, cutouts or notches. Also include strengthening, printing, coating, edge-processing or adhesive requirements when applicable.
