Glass by thickness and square foot, edgework by the foot, holes and notches each — and a measure sheet the client signs before anything goes to the fabricator, because tempered glass is cut, drilled and notched before it ever sees the oven. Daybook speaks glass.
Glass and glazing is a project trade, and the app was built for project work — with one difference this trade lives on: a lead, a site visit where the opening is measured, a quote, a win and a deposit, the lead time at the fabricator, a day of install, an invoice. Not a template with a different noun in the headline: glass has its own job types, its own checklists, its own quoting words, its own price list and its own website, and every screen that used to say brick or stone says lite, sealed unit or template to a glazier.
The measure & template sheet is the part that earns its keep, because nothing after it can be trimmed. It takes the count of lites, the glass type and thickness, every size with a note on what was out of square or plumb, the fabrication — seamed, polished or bevelled edges, holes, notches, radius corners — the hardware and its finish, the date the order is expected back, whether the deposit is in and the order placed, photos of the opening, and the client’s signature on the sizes. The install day report then records which lites went in and what was found at the opening, and the handover walks every door and panel with the client before the job can be closed.
The glass & glazing toolkit.
On top of everything Daybook does for every trade — the full list is here — glass & glazing gets its own tools.
Quotes built line by line from your price list
Annealed, tempered, laminated, low-iron, tinted, obscure and spandrel by the square foot; sealed units clear, Low-E argon, tempered or triple, supplied and installed; mirror cut to size, safety-backed mirror, shelves, tabletops and back-painted splashbacks; seamed, polished and bevelled edges by the lineal foot with holes and notches each; hardware by the set; storefront framing by the foot with doors, closers and panic hardware; board-up by the opening; glazier and helper by the hour — a list, not a takeoff, because that is how a glass shop prices.

Checklists written for glaziersCrew and up
A measure & template sheet with the sizes, the fabrication, the hardware, the deposit and order status and the client’s signature on the numbers; an install day report for the lites set, how they were glazed, the cure time given and what was found at the opening; and a handover & glass care with the deficiency list, the care sheet, the warranty and the safety stamp pointed out — attached to the right jobs automatically, and the handover has to be done before the job can be marked complete.
Quotes and paperwork in your words
Shower enclosure, sealed unit replacement, storefront and curtain wall, railing and partition, mirror, tabletop and shelf, home glass replacement, board-up and broken glass — the job types, the quoting examples and the document preview all speak glass, down to a sample quote whose terms read deposit on order, balance on install and whose optional line is a low-iron upgrade.
Tags for who sends you the work
Referral, builder / contractor, property manager and insurance / restoration as marketing sources; storefront, railing & partition, shower enclosure, sealed unit, mirror & tabletop and board-up as job specialties; homeowner, builder, property manager and commercial as client tiers — seeded on day one, yours to edit.
AI that knows the trade
Lite and sealed unit, annealed, tempered and laminated, daylight opening and bite, edgework, setting blocks, glazing bead, channel, spigot and standoff, mullion and spandrel, template, lead time and board-up — drafts and job summaries use a glazier’s vocabulary, and the auto-classifier keeps a fogged pane in sealed units rather than breakage, and files an opening with no glass left in it as a board-up whatever broke.
