For tempered glass they cut it first then send it out for tempering. If you are concerned about it shattering get laminated glass instead. When I worked in the hotels I replaced broken tempered panes with laminated, had fewer breaks and less to clean up.

You just need to call a glass shop and get the info, most can price it over the phone.

Also, tell the glass shop what you are planning to use the glass for and they can give you some advise.
