Glass curtain price per m²
Quick answer
Glass curtains cost €140–€260 per m² installed with IVA; laminated or solar-control glass €220–€400 per m². Where your case sits: small or hard-to-access terraces work out proportionally more expensive per metre, while large, regular surfaces make better use of the material and the fitting day.

What changes the price
- Glass type and thickness: thicker tempered or solar-control glass costs more but improves comfort and security.
- Dimensions and number of panels: more linear metres and panels increase the cost.
- Hardware and opening: premium folding/accordion hardware adds to the price.
- Access: top-floor flats without a lift, cranes or difficult access raise labour.
- Finishes: profile colour, security locks and bespoke trims.
Total cost examples
For a standard 10–15 m² terrace the quotation covers manufacture and installation, and what moves it is the glass, the number of panels and the access. A top-floor terrace with awkward access or special glass sits clearly above; a large, regular porch works out proportionally keener.

Frequently asked questions
Does the price per m² include installation?
It depends on the project. CostaGlass provides a fixed quote after the site survey, detailing materials and installation so there are no surprises.
Are glass curtains cheaper than aluminium enclosures?
Frameless glass curtains usually have a lower price per m² and keep the view open. Aluminium with a thermal break costs more but insulates better. The right choice depends on how you use the space.
Is the quote free?
Yes. At CostaGlass the site survey and tailored quote are free and with no obligation.
