Its for an outdoor pair set, I'm not sure where to get glass specifically cut or the cost. Does anyone know?

tempered glass cannot be cut, you mean the sort of safety glass that used to be made into car windows, and breaks into small cubes, it has to be made to the size you need, so is ordered. There will be a glazier's company in or near your town that can order it. They will be able to order DG units as well.

BTW Laminated glass, which is the sort often seen in shop windows, or for security glass, and when hit crazes but stays in one piece, CAN be cut to size, and the local glazing co will be able to do it.

Beware of web searches that bring up (e.g.) Warmington Glaziers but do not have a local phone no or show a local address, this is a ruse used by agencies in building trades who farm out enquiries to anyone who will pay them to find work. They just put up a web page showing the name of every town or city in the country. Businesses with a good local reputation have no need to pay an agency for this trick. A good way to annoy agencies who are pretending to be local is not to give your postcode when you ring, but to say "turn left after the big Tesco's, I'm opposite the Middle School, y'know?
