This aluminum U-profile of 20x20x20 mm in outer size has an inner size of 18 x 16 x 18 mm. The most ideal would fit a glass panel of 8 mm thickness. This leaves you 4 mm space on both sides of the glass to apply a sealant seam (16 mm width as inner size minus 8 mm thick glass leaves 8 mm space. You divide this 8 mm over 2 sides of the glass, and that is 4 mm space per side).
10 mm thick glass could also be put in, then this will mean a sealant of 3 mm per side. This is actually also ok. With 12 mm glass you only have 2 mm left per side and that is a little to less to apply sealant. For 15 mm glass you could first put the selant in the profile and then press the glass panel in it. The disadvantage is that you have to break everything if you ever remove the glass from the profile.
You can use this profile indoors to mount glass. A common application for this profile is for glass walls and shower enclosures.

Aluminum U-profile 20x20x20 mm is delivered:
- Cut to size
Points of attention:
- The profile is usually delivered cut to the correct size or with a small over-length, so that you can saw it neatly to size in the work itself and finish the end side neatly
- The ends are not finished when you receive them. You will have to finish it yourself by filing it smooth
- With this profile no cover caps are available for the ends. You will have to seal it off or cut a cover from a piece of residual profile that you can mount on the end side
- If you are going to place a glass panel in the profile, think carefully about the correct glass size. You will have to use a small glass deduction of at least approx. 2 - 4 mm (partly depending on the screw head that can protrude into the profile). If you apply the head in a recessed position, at least 2 mm is sufficient
- Preferably you place a mounting gasket under the glass in the profile. You can also place this gasket on the side of the glass to properly position the glass pane in the profile before you seal it permanently. If you use this mounting gasket between the glass and the profile, take into account an extra glass deduction of at least 2 mm or 3 mm (depending on the thickness of the gasket used for it)
