We measure it ourselves
Every job starts with our own site survey. Fabrication is cut to the opening as it actually is, not as the drawing says it should be — which is where most glazing problems begin.

Who we are
A glass and aluminium contractor, not a middleman
Al Makan Alum and Glass Cont. works out of Ajman Industrial Area 1, supplying and installing architectural glass, aluminium systems and metal fabrication across the United Arab Emirates.
The distinction that matters: we are a fabricator. The survey, the cutting, the welding, the finishing and the installation are all ours. That means when something needs to change on site — and on real jobs it usually does — the people who can change it are the people already standing there.
We work directly with building owners and tenants, and as a specialist subcontractor to main contractors, fit-out companies and interior designers who need a glazing and metalwork package handled properly.

What we do
18 specialisms, one contractor
Most projects need more than one of these. Handling them all in-house is what removes the gaps between trades where delays and blame usually live.

Why Al Makan
Six reasons clients keep coming back
None of these are slogans. They are the operational choices that decide whether a glazing job finishes on time and stays right afterwards.
Fabricated in our own workshop
Cutting, welding, assembly and finishing happen in Ajman Industrial Area 1. Keeping the work in-house is what keeps lead times and quality under our control rather than a supplier’s.
Installed by the people who built it
The team that fabricates your units is the team that fits them. Nothing is handed to a subcontractor who has never seen the job.
Built for UAE conditions
Coastal humidity, summer heat and fine dust are hard on glazing. We specify finishes, gaskets and hardware that are chosen for this climate, not imported defaults.
Glass, aluminium and steel under one roof
Most jobs need more than one trade. Handling the glazing, the aluminium and the metalwork ourselves removes the gaps between contractors where delays hide.

How we work
From first call to handover
Six steps, no surprises. You will always know which one your job is on.
- 01
Talk to us
Call or send a WhatsApp with photos, drawings or just a description. We will tell you straight away whether it is something we do and roughly what is involved.
- 02
Site survey
We come out and measure properly — openings, levels, fixings, access. This is also where we flag anything that will affect the price before it becomes a surprise.
- 03
Quotation and specification
A written quote with the system, glass type, finish, hardware and timeline set out clearly. If you want alternatives at different price points, we will price them side by side.
- 04
Fabrication
Your units are cut, assembled and finished in our workshop. We keep you updated as the work progresses rather than leaving you to chase.
- 05
Delivery and installation
Our own team delivers and installs, protects the surrounding finishes, and clears the site afterwards. Snags are dealt with before we call the job done.
- 06
Handover and aftercare
We walk the job with you, adjust anything that needs adjusting, and stay reachable afterwards for servicing or additions.
Send us the drawings. We will send back a price.
Site survey, written specification and a clear timeline — from a contractor who fabricates the work itself.
Materials & workmanship
The parts of a job you only notice when they are wrong
A glazed unit is only as good as its weakest component. These are the four places we refuse to economise, because they are the four that fail first.
- Aluminium systems
- Powder-coated and anodised profiles, thermally broken options where the application calls for it.
- Glass
- Toughened, laminated, insulated, tinted, frosted and back-painted — specified to the job, not to whatever is in stock.
- Hardware
- Hinges, patch fittings, locks, closers and tracks chosen to carry the actual weight and daily use of the unit.
- Finishing
- Edges polished, welds dressed, silicone lines cut clean. The details a client notices six months later.
Measured, not estimated
Every unit is cut to a surveyed dimension. Openings in real buildings are rarely square and rarely match the drawing — designing around that is the difference between a clean install and a week of packing and silicone.

Toughened vs laminated glass: which one does your project need?
They are not interchangeable and they are not competing grades. One changes how glass breaks; the other changes what happens after it does — and the right answer depends entirely on where the pane is going.

What actually moves the price of an office glass partition in the UAE
Two partition quotes for the same office can differ by a factor of three, and it is almost never the glass. Here is what each variable does to the number, roughly in order of impact.

Maintenance
Keeping aluminium and glass looking new in a coastal climate
Salt-laden air, fine dust and 45°C summers are harder on glazing than almost any European climate. A short, realistic routine that genuinely extends the life of a facade — and the three mistakes that shorten it.

WhatsApp +971 56 436 9675Architectural glass and aluminium across both fit-out and construction: shopfronts, office and glass partitions, doors and windows, shower enclosures, mirrors, facades and cladding, plus metal works such as staircases, balustrades and railings. If it involves glass, aluminium or steel fabrication, it is worth asking.
Yes. We fabricate in our own workshop in Ajman Industrial Area 1 and install with our own team. You are dealing with one company from survey through to handover rather than coordinating a fabricator and a fitter separately.
Both. We work directly with building owners and tenants, and as a specialist subcontractor to main contractors, fit-out companies and interior designers who need the glazing and metalwork packages handled properly.
Call or WhatsApp us on +971 56 436 9675 with photographs, drawings or dimensions. For anything beyond a simple replacement we will arrange a site survey, because measuring the opening ourselves is the only way to give you a price that will not move.
Often, yes. Send a photo of what you have and we will tell you whether it can be repaired, matched, or whether replacement is the more sensible option. We will say so if repair is not worth your money.
