Glass panels -design mistake?
Comments (7)Hi there, are you looking at leaded lights? Or plain coloured glass? There won't be much in the way of plain coloured without it having a texture because most plain glass is too thin to toughen and you will need toughened glass in those sized openings. There is etched glass which is a frosted type glass (not textured!) that lets light in but gives more privacy. We have it in our front door panels. Alternatively there are leased lights. The most expensive option though but could be stunning. However you would want to avoid any standard patterns, flowers etc etc and go for something very contemporary either in a variety of clear textured glass, full colour or half and half. Pattern wise I'm thinking something multiple layers of colours that swirl from the one larger panel right through to the smaller panel as if it's one whole window. Have a look on the web for some ideas but as I say, leaded lights are not very cheap and are extra expensive if you are in London/south of the country....See MoreSuitable obscured glass for Victorian front door?
Comments (7)You could always have two pieces of plain glass installed and then spray them with glass paint. Rust Oleum do a good range. Alternatively, the multitude of firms that make glass splashbacks use toughened glass, which could be suitable for a front door. You could choose one of the colours that is already in your stained glass panel that you have and have two panels made up to compliment. You are best to approach a window firm and ask their advice, because you don't want to risk having glass that is easy to break and therefore leave yourself open to burglary. That is, unfortunately why lots of people used the wire. As when the glass is broken, you can't put your hand through and undo the door!...See MoreHallway - create glass recess/window in wall to allow light through?

Comments (5)Crittall normally sits really well in a Victorian house. I’m in Crittall county and there are a lot of victorian factories locally with crittall windows although people tend to associate it most with the 1920’s but they were founded much earlier. It will sit really well with the exposed brick too...See Morenoreen786
