If I can, I use caulking instead of silicone because it's easier to clean up. I avoid the product that goes on white and turns clear because it doesn't always turn and then you've really got a mess.😮😎😮
Good question! When doing installs outside I always install into a solid frame, metal or wood before hanging glass, I usually want the wind resistance to be small so I limit the size of the piece. Good luck on your install, I'd love to see your results.
Thank you for this video I did notice you didn’t explain( how )the hooks were attached to the frame Also my windows are mostly round When I solder hooks on they sometimes break off the frame thus crashing to the ground🤔😖 Thanks again Patricia
On metal frames we solder rings to the frames and on wooden frames we screw in rings or screws through chain. You may wan to look at our video on soldering rings ua-cam.com/video/vVlftXRzZuI/v-deo.html you want to avoid a "cold" joint on your rings. Good Luck
Hi David and Jeanie! I’d love to pick your brains. I have a stain glass panel framed in oak that I would like to place vertically in my front door on my home. There is currently a glass panel in that front door that is larger than the Stain glass piece I have. What would be the best way to either install, or affix, or hang, my stained glass panel, so that I can enjoy it as part of my front door? Is there a way to get in touch with you to discuss this? Thanks so much for even considering reaching out.
I'm sure you could adapt one of the methods mentioned in the video to fit your circumstances. You could always send photos to me david.gsglass@gmail.com so I could look at the existing door
I am making a stained glass panel to fit in a pre-made window. Will the regular pane behind the stained glass pane cause any detriment to light? Should the panel be on the inside or the outside of the window, if it can be used in conjunction with an existing window? Thank you for the video.
I don't use two sided tape, I use painters tape to hold the glass in, with a folded piece of cardboard that acts like a spring to put pressure against the tape and the glass
@@GommStainedGlass Did you set the zinc frame right up against the glass? The slight bubble that you get when you join the solder lines to the zinc frame causes it to stick out just a bit. I love your videos they are so full of useful tips. Thank you for taking the time to make them.
Hello David & Jeanne! I'm getting ready to install my first large panel! Instead of nesting the panel inside the window space, it's actually going to rest up against a black metal industrial frame that the window currently has around it. There is a rectangular wooden casement surrounding the black metal frame with a width of a 2x4. The carpenter is going to build a frame/trim to hold the panel in place up against the black metal framing. Do I still need to use silicone? And should I use shims at the bottom to allow for air circulation between the two panes? There will be approximately 2 inches of space between the stained glass and the window glass (going outside)...the depth of the black industrial metal framing. They would also like to place a clear (unsealed) glass pane in front of the panel to keep people from touching it. As always any concerns or thoughts would be appreciated! Thanks, Kristy 🤗
Thank so much! I really enjoy your teaching. I always wondered how the installation was done. 😊💕👏👏👏
You are so welcome! There are so many ways to hang!!
Excellent video! Thanks so much for making this - it is so helpful.
Thankyou, this is one of the videos we've done that I'm especially proud of 😀
Very well explained and illustrated. Thank you!
Thanks, sometimes we luck out!
Awesome work. Your love of stained glass absolutely shows!!

Great video, thank you! It was neat to see the different uses of silicone and caulk.

Great information...thank you.
My pleasure, I can't believe I haven't taught that before. Many install videos just not ALL the ways to install 😀😀😀
Great video, Thank you so much for all the information! Question for you, how would you install stain glass into a hollow vinyl fence/siding?

I reccomend that you watch more of our install videos, check out www.gsg-art.com/youtube-videos.html not all but many of our videos are listed.
That long door window piece was quite nice. The one right before the insulated unit segment. What size foil did you use for the door piece?
1/4" foil that was 1 mil thick
What kind of two sided tape did they use? Foam, open cell, closed cell, rubber?
I don't use two sided tape, I use painters tape to hold the glass in, with a folded piece of cardboard that acts like a spring to put pressure against the tape and the glass

How did it go? Sorry to be so slow about getting back to you.
You don’t say how to attach the chain to the metal stained glass.
Just solder rings at the corners and slip chain through them
