Do not fix to glass. Hang panels from the mullions with clamps, from the ceiling on cables, or use freestanding panels in front of the glass.

Panel weights

PanelApprox. weight
24 × 48 in, 1 in6 lb
24 × 48 in, 2 in10 lb
24 × 48 in, 4 in18 lb
48 × 96 in, 2 in40 lb

Choose anchors rated for at least four times the panel weight. Z-clips let you lift a panel off later for cleaning or repainting.

Before drilling, check for wiring and pipes with a detector, and never drill fire-rated walls without confirming the penetration is allowed.
