I'd appreciate any information you can provide on sourcing these lovely frosted/etched glass doors. They're lovely!

Hi Pamela,

This door was a bespoke solution. The glass is 10mm toughened, acid-etched and drilled to suit the head rail.

The head rail can be bought from numerous companies. Here’s a link:

Hope this helps,

As in custom I take it. Great. Thank you for the specifications for the glass. I'm looking at using this material for a pocket door, as I'm interested in preserving precious wall space in our small home for art. Also, the glass will allow the light to pass through but create privacy. Again, a consideration for our new home. This door is brilliant. Beautiful. Thank you.

To change to cavity doors you will need to remove the wall each side of the doors to accommodate the cavity housing. Normal sliding doors would make a difference but the problem with them is they never stay totally closed and they do become quite noisy and annoying. This problem also applies to double cavity doors. The other option is to use bi-fold doors, they won't intrude into the room as much. Do you really need two doors there at all and is the glass above the doorway necessary? My personal preference would be to fill it all in and just have the one door to the room. You could even re-use one of your doors.

Hi Lesley, I would contact a couple of frameless glass door hardware suppliers like Feathers or C. R. Laurence and see if they have something like a clear plastic clip-on seal with an wide brush seal or fin seal. It might also be worth finding out if there is any adjustment on the door tracks which might be able to bring the sliding doors closer to the fixed panel.

While both are great options we agree with Tribbletrouble44152k7 Trek - definitely depends on your space. We personally like swing or pivot doors - easier to clean, space efficient and easy to assemble if you are doing it DIY. Alternatively you could use a glass screen and do away with the door all together if that's possible? An example is below of our DIY shower screens, which you can also pick up with door kits: Hope this helps! Let us know what you decide.

FormFunctionNT I love your lego door! So innovative. This idea may be a little busy for the other door, but just putting it out there... You fill it with squares of the 4 colours, but randomly leave 4 blank. Almost like 4 have left and moved 'next door' if you'll pardon the pun! Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
