Designer Glass Options Privacy Glass Our privacy glass allows light to filter in, while keeping a high level of privacy for your home. The glass is designed to distort the views from the window by applying light to the different surfaces of the glass. Our collection features privacy glass with obscurity ratings of 9 or greater. Options include Rain, Frosted Leaf or Pebble patterns. Privacy glass is ideal for bedrooms and bathrooms, or anywhere natural light is desired but the view is not. Rain Leaf Pebble Custom Groove Glass Patterns Custom etched glass adds beauty and elegance to any window or patio door with custom etched patterns. Choose from eight unique etched patterns and three different etching styles. Patterns include Single Prairie, Double Prairie, Diamond, Florentine, Petal, Trellis, Marquis and Tudor. Each pattern can be etched using one of three etching styles (see below). The ability to match any pattern with an etching style gives the home a true custom look. Single Prairie Double Prairie Diamond Florentine Petal Trellis Marquis Tudor Custom Groove Glass Etching Styles Once you've selected your groove (etched) glass pattern, you'll need to select an etching style. Choose from Polished, Frosted and Shadow. Etched glass is available in all Stanek insulated windows and patio doors. Polished Frosted Shadow
Safety Glass When safety is a concern, our tempered safety glass is an ideal choice. Tempered glass is much stronger (more impact-resistant) than ordinary glass and it breaks differently too. Standard glass will break at the area of impact, which may cause cracks or a hole in the window or possibly leave broken shards of glass still in the window. Standard glass usually breaks into large jagged shards that pose a substantial injury risk. Tempered glass is ideal and in many areas of the country, required for the following areas: Glass in any door Glass in any kind of shower, bathtub area, hot tub or whirlpool area Glass that is adjacent to a door Glass in walls used as a barrier for indoor or outdoor swimming pools Glass in walls enclosing stairway landings Tempered glass, on the other hand, will shatter completely, leaving no glass left in the window. When it shatters, it does so evenly and in small rounded pieces posing much less of an injury risk than ordinary glass. Tempered Glass Standard Glass
