Noise control depends on more than thicker glass.

Glass thickness, laminated layers, spacing between panes, sash seals, frame construction, and installation gaps can all influence sound transmission.

We start with the type and direction of the noise, then compare appropriate product and glass options. Results vary by building construction and surrounding conditions, so we avoid unsupported sound-reduction promises.

Questions to ask about outside noise
