Alpha Stained Glass is a family run workshop. Since its establishment in 1986, the workshop has grown to employ several experienced & accomplished craftsmen and women in the design & manufacture.
Commissions to date have included works carried out in St Columb's Cathedral, Derry, St Nicholas' Church, Carrickfergus, St Patrick's Church, Maghera, St Columba's Church (longtower) Derry and St Malachy's Church, Castlewellan. Further afield, work has been designed and manufactured for projects in Paris, Bonn and Andorra.
Staff at Alpha have many years experience in creating stained glass pieces for both traditional and more contemporary style bars, clubs and restaurants. Recent commissions include the Bentley bar and restaurant (Derry), the Quays bar (Portrush), Daly’s Bar & Bistro (Derry) and Quinn’s bar (Newcastle). As well as stained glass we regularly produce vintage style mirrors (Jameson, Powers and Guinness) and decorative sandblasting.
Stained glass panels are then crafted using the centuries-old techniques which have proven to stand the test of time. The stained glass panel is watertight and secure as it is puttied and sealed into its frame. However, we also provide a double-glazing service, which will cut down on cleaning and maintenance as well as increasing your energy rating.
Our combined experience in church, domestic and commercial stained glass processes ensures the best quality for our customers. From our initial free consultation to installation, we work with the client in creating something completely individual to complement their home. Our designers will liaise with clients and produce original artwork to their specifications.
