Dallas Stained Glass Doors
Do you love French doors? Those are doors with glass throughout the entire length of the door, frequently with a wooden grid that divides the panes into smaller rectangles. They are classy, add a unique design element to a room, and allow light to move from one room of a home to another, even when the doors are closed. French doors are usually double doors, sometimes opening onto a patio, or into a bedroom. Many people add a sheer curtain to give some extra privacy, but for Dallas, stained glass doors are the perfect design element.
French doors hark back to 16th and 17th century France, and were originally made with wood and wrought iron. Adding stained glass to French doors in your home can create a unique look that is one of a kind. If you have any areas of your home that don’t get enough light, one way to add it is to take a regular door and replace it with a French door. But why settle for plain old glass, when you can completely enhance the whole look and ambiance of any room by adding stained glass French doors?
Stained Glass Dallas can design and build custom glass for these doors, anywhere you have them in your home. The pattern you choose can repeat in each pane, or can flow throughout the panes. If your French Doors open to the outside of your home, you might want a bit more privacy. Clear, leaded stained glass designs using frosted glass are the perfect solution to the problem. They afford just enough privacy while still letting the light into your home. And they also provide a touch of elegance that elevates your plain old French door to a work of art.
Please take a look at some of the Stained Glass Dallas doors that we have done for other clients, to get an idea of what we are talking about. In our residential gallery, you’ll see two examples of stained glass French doors right in the first two rows.
However, whatever your ideas are for your doors, interior or exterior, we invite you to work with one of our designers to bring that idea into fruition. Whether you want clear glass or colored glass, whether you prefer a Celtic pattern or a naturalistic pattern, perhaps of tree branches or flowers, we can design it and build it. All our Dallas stained glass doors are custom designed to your specifications, then hand-crafted and installed by our local, specially trained builders.
If you are thinking about adding stained glass to your French doors, your front door, perhaps even your sliding glass shower door, please give us a call today. Doors are usually an overlooked part of the home decorating process, mostly because people simply don’t know there is anything to be done with them. But now you know better! Why not take your doors from dull to the focal point of the whole room, with Stained Glass Dallas doors?
