The Benefits of Frosted Glass Doors
Frosted glass doors aren’t just beautiful to look at, they’re also highly functional. You can use them in a variety of spaces throughout your home or commercial business. They’re the perfect choice for showers, front doors, patio doors, conference rooms, gyms and more. Additionally, frosted glass doors provide a broad range of benefits for everyone to enjoy:
- Gain privacy. Sometimes, you want the elegance of glass without the transparency. Let’s say you own an upscale fitness center, for instance. You want to protect your members’ privacy, but you want the space to look appealing and welcoming. Perhaps you want passers-by to be curious about what services you offer. This way, onlookers can get a glimpse of what’s going on without invading anyone’s privacy. Plus, frosted glass doors add an aura of mystery and intrigue to any location.
- Limit energy consumption. With frosted glass, you’ll still enjoy plenty of natural lighting. At the same time, the frosted effect reduces the amount of direct sunlight that can pass through. This means the room won’t absorb too much heat or trap cold air. With frosted glass doors, you won’t have to adjust your thermostat too much. In the long run, this should prevent higher energy costs and reduce your footprint.
- Easy to maintain. Compared to other options, glass is incredibly simple to clean and maintain. Frosted glass is no different. All you need is a nonabrasive cloth and non-toxic cleaning solution to use regularly. Wipe down your doors about once a week to ensure they stay fresh and attractive.
- Customizable design options. At River Glass Designs, we can design your frosted glass project in any number of ways. We can even create etched glass and design interesting patterns to give your space a unique, striking flair.
Options for Frosted Glass Doors
Frosted glass doors can be modified to suit your exact specifications. Many of our customers are surprised to know there are so many customization options for frosted glass. The possibilities are truly endless. In fact, various techniques are used to create frosted glass doors. These include:
- Sandblasted glass: With this method, specialists used sand to wear down the glass and give it an opaque look.
- Acid-etched glass: Hydrochloric acid is placed on each side of your doors, creating a lovely frosted texture.
- Ceramic frit silk screened glass: This approach allows glass technicians to paint ceramic directly onto the glass doors. Clients typically select this option for more artistic, colorful projects.
- Applied translucent film: Glass projects shouldn’t have to break your budget. If you’re looking to cut costs while enjoying the benefits of frosted glass, an applied film might be the right choice. Applied films also help to insulate indoor spaces.
- Translucent interlayer laminated glass: By placing a translucent interlayer between two glass panels, designers can create the familiar “frosted” effect homeowners love. In addition, this alternative is extremely durable.
At River Glass Designs, we install frosted glass doors that can be customized any way you would like. Prior to your installation, a trained professional will review your budget plan, verify measurements and fabricate the glass to suit your needs. Once as your installation is complete, we will communicate with you to ensure we have met your expectations. Are you interested in starting a project with us?
