When installing panels into an window
opening or frame, you often need to secure it while you finish
puttying or use other forms of weather proofing.
If you use sprigs (headless nails) or
even carpet tacks, use them where there are leads meeting the
perimeter. There us less chance of a stray hammer strike hitting the
glass. It is more likely to strike the lead and so cushion the
impact to the panel. I also use a straight putty knife behind the
nail or sprig to avoid even the chance of a strike directly on the
lead.
These precautions, with suitable
modifications, are applicable to copper foiled and fused panels.
