The glass is heavy enough that gravity did most of the work for me. I didn't buy it, but the mirror shop had a variety of channel that would hold the glass more securely. For the marquee, I used 1/8 inch aluminum angle... |

The way the marquee retaines work is that there's a top and bottom to screw to. I could imagine the same approach working for the monitor glass... depending on how you build the area for your monitor. The top bracket could be fixed, and the bottom one removable. When you install your glass, you slip it into the top bracket, and then place the lower bracket and attach with screws. |
