Other Options For 1930s Doors

Etched Glass for 1930s-Style Doors

1930s-style doors, with their compact glass panels taking up about a third or a quarter of the top area, are a hallmark of vintage UK architecture, blending charm with understated sophistication. Adding etched glass (also known as sandblasted glass) to these doors enhances their period appeal while adding privacy and style. At Leadbitter Glass, we’ve been creating bespoke etched glass for 1930s doors for over 25 years, delivering custom panels to homeowners from Cornwall to Caithness with free UK-wide shipping.

Why Etched Glass for 1930s-Style Doors?

The small, upper glass section of a 1930s-style door is perfect for showcasing etched glass. Our sandblasting process etches intricate designs—think Art Deco geometrics, delicate florals, or house numbers—into toughened glass, creating a frosted effect that nods to the era’s elegance. This not only boosts privacy but also softens incoming light, making it ideal for front doors or internal spaces in homes with a vintage vibe.

All our etched glass is toughened for safety and longevity, available as single-glazed for interior doors or double-glazed for external ones needing extra insulation. Each panel is tailored to fit the modest glass area of your 1930s-style door, preserving its authentic proportions.

How We Craft Your Etched Glass Panels

At Leadbitter Glass, we make every etched glass panel to measure in our Corby, Northamptonshire studio. Here’s the process:

1. Choose Your Design: Explore our gallery of 1930s-inspired etched glass designs (right here on this page!) or create something bespoke. From classic sunbursts to subtle borders, we’ll fit any pattern to your door’s top section.
2. Measure Your Door: Measure the glass area—typically a third or quarter of the top of your 1930s-style door. Unsure how? We’re here to assist.
3. See It First: We’ll send you a digital proof showing your etched glass design in your exact size. Approve it or tweak it—we’ll adjust until it’s spot-on.
4. Precision Etching: Our artisans sandblast your design into toughened glass, capturing every detail with care.
5. Free UK Delivery: Your custom etched glass panel arrives ready to install, shipped free to any UK address.

Tailored for 1930s Proportions

The compact glass area of 1930s-style doors requires a design that shines in a smaller space. Our gallery offers options that complement this scale, echoing the Art Deco and Edwardian influences of the era. Whether you want a single etched motif or a full-panel pattern, we’ll ensure it fits perfectly, enhancing your door’s heritage charm.
