Hi I want to change the glass top on my dining table, and I need 6 screw fittings (possibly standoff brackets?) to attach the new top to the table frame. The screws on the present top are tightly glued into the glass and not able to be removed. I have hunted online but I can't find anything suitable, does anyone have any suggestions?
Have you found the new glass top? Does it have matching holes in it? Provided the contact points are nicely spaced out towards the table top's corners, usually the weight of the glass top is enough to keep it in place - little rubber suction cups stop it sliding about. Any chance of a photo?
Thanks for the replies. I have sourced a new glass top, but it doesn't have holes in it - I want adapter screw fittings which can be bonded onto the glass, then screwed onto the frame. This is how it is attached at the moment. .
If your using a decent glass shop for the new top, then they should be able to supply the fittings you need or at least point you in the right direction / contact number Have you asked the glass supplier ?
When you say tightly glued 'into' the glass, do you mean 'into' or on to? Thinking try superglue releaser.
I have a very reputable glazier firm, and they say that they can bond on the new screws, but they can't supply them, on recommend a supplier.
The screws are glued into the underside of the glass top. I don't think I would be able to get access to them without breaking the glass, and also I've read that it's very difficult to get the bonding surface of the screws completely clean.
