Komatsu machinery
PC excavators, dozers and dump trucks
Komatsu has been building machines since 1921 and today stands among the world's largest equipment makers. On British sites the badge is best known for PC-series tracked excavators - and plenty of the excavators digging in the UK were actually built here, at Komatsu's Birtley plant in County Durham. Alongside the diggers sit wheeled excavators, dozers, dump trucks and wheel loaders.
Excavator cabs are where we spend most of our Komatsu time, and they have a working quirk that matters to glazing: the front screen is designed to slide up and stow in the roof, so the operator can run with it open. A replacement that's a few millimetres out will bind in the channels - so we size the glass to the frame, refit the hardware and check the screen still travels before we sign the job off.
Beyond the front screen it's the usual mix: flat door, side and quarter panes cut to size on site from sheet stock, shaped glass ordered through our supplier network, laminated or toughened to suit the pane - all fitted to health & safety requirements and manufacturer recommendations. We do the same for Caterpillar and Hitachi machines if the fleet is mixed.
Komatsu questions
Asked about Komatsu glazing
Can you sort the sliding front screen on a Komatsu excavator?
Yes. Excavator front screens are made to slide up and stow in the roof, so the replacement has to match exactly or the window jams. We size the glass to the frame so it still opens as designed.
Do you work on the bigger Komatsu dozers and dump trucks?
Yes - the mobile unit isn't limited by machine size. From compact PC excavators to dozers and dump trucks, if it has a glazed cab we'll come to it.
What details do you need for a Komatsu quote?
The full model number including the dash series - PC210-8 or PC210-11 rather than just PC210 - and which pane is damaged. The number after the dash is what lets us identify the right glass first time. Photos help. Call us on 01724 701 321 and we'll give you a free, no-obligation quote.
