Stained Glass Overlay Entryways - Front Door Inserts & Side lights

January 17, 2023 Penny Kachuck

Customize your entryway with stained glass overlay! Our designers work with you to create classic designs, modern designs, and everything in between.

We can design, create, and install custom door inserts, side lights (sidelites), or both. We can create matching designs or designs that flow from one panel to the next. This means you will have a cohesive entryway with and amazing, custom design to fit your style! Check out our door insert page here to see more of what we have done and get inspired to have your very own custom entryway created!

And check out our stained glass overlay window page here too for more inspiration.

We're halfway to Christmas! So maybe we're dreaming of cooler weather sometimes, but we are enjoying the sun and the surprise patches of rain. Summer is here and we are here for your glass and mirror needs! Summer heat is a big issue in Southern California, and while we can’t help you with your air conditioning, we can with insulation; specifically, windows! For our clients with single pane windows (or damaged dual pane), we can replace them with new dual pane, vinyl retrofit windows. The added layers of thicker tempered glass, air, and more glass provide a much better buffer from the elements than a single piece of glass. This will help keep your home cooler in the summer, warmer in the winter, and quieter from sounds of the outside. Our window page here has more information and pictures to give you a better idea of what we do.

Of course, our artistic minds couldn’t suggest windows without suggesting some art glass windows! They are great for any window, but you will see them often decorating the sidelight of a front door or adding privacy to a large bathroom window. We can use textured or privacy glass, sandblast a design, or use stained glass to create a lead and bevel design, some color, or full color!

We have some new products coming up which we will share in our blog here. So check back often for new items and to find out what is happening at the Shoppe!

Many people have spent some more time in the kitchen during this pandemic. Many new recipes were created and tried, plenty of sourdough baked, and maybe getting creative with leftovers. While being at home more, our clients are possibly noticing more things that need some kind of glass. We have had more clients updating their cabinet doors with glass inserts. These can range from clear glass so you can see all of your cute mugs, to a distorting texture, to completely obscuring the view with art glass. Our cabinet door section on our website here has more information and photos of work we have done.

Check out the gallery below for some of the custom work we have done. If you have a unique design in mind, let us know! Our designers love creating for our clients and strive to make your ideas become reality!

We made it past April Fools Day with minimal pranks. The biggest one being the weather! Surprising to get over 80 degrees already, but that is our Southern California spring treat… However, it’s a much nicer now and should be a lovely Spring/Easter/Eostre weekend!
