Table Cases

Table cases also known as library cases are typically used to display books, documents or works on paper. A low, five-sided glass top encloses a horizontal deck and is supported by a table base. That base can be plain or fancy, 4-legged or solid.

Description

Archival or museum quality table case features frameless, full visibility construction with clear white, laminated glass (safety glass/UV filtering). Glass edges are precision ground, mitered and joined with a clear adhesive – no butt joints. Glass hood is hinged and permanently set within a metal frame that locks to and is supported by the table base; base (or legs) include levelers. Access is by means of a pair of pneumatic lifters concealed beneath the frame. The interior display platform is removable, constructed of formaldehyde-free materials and wrapped in our standard fabric.

Base

Standard table case is aluminum construction with 4 legs or flush pedestal. Optional base styles include: recessed pedestal, slab ended, rail ended, base w/display drawers, cabinet base, toe-kick and custom (per specification). Base includes levelers.

Materials

Extruded aluminum sections; clear white laminated glass, tubular steel or medium density fiberboard (MDF); wood veneers (optional). Note: Honeycomb aluminum may be specified as an alternate to MDF at additional cost.

Glass

8 mm clear white laminated glass. Glass edges are precision ground and polished; vertical edges are mitered and joined with an inert adhesive; top is flush with glass sides.
