How to Add a Glass Panel to an Interior Door

Adding a glass panel to an interior door is a great way to add light and style to your home. It's a relatively easy project that can be completed in a few hours with the right tools and materials.

Here are the steps on how to add a glass panel to an interior door:

1. Gather your tools and materials

You will need the following tools and materials to complete this project:

A drill
A hole saw
A jigsaw
A sander
A putty knife
A glass panel
Wood glue
Glazing points
A putty knife
Paint or stain (optional)

2. Remove the door from its hinges

The first step is to remove the door from its hinges. This will make it easier to work on the door and to install the glass panel.

3. Measure and mark the location of the glass panel

Once the door is removed from its hinges, you need to measure and mark the location of the glass panel. The glass panel should be centered on the door and it should be the same size as the opening in the door.

4. Cut the hole for the glass panel

Once you have marked the location of the glass panel, you need to cut the hole for the glass panel. You can use a hole saw to cut the hole. Make sure to cut the hole slightly smaller than the glass panel so that the glass panel will fit snugly in the hole.

5. Install the glass panel

Once the hole is cut, you need to install the glass panel. Apply a bead of wood glue around the edge of the hole. Then, carefully place the glass panel in the hole and press it into place. Use glazing points to hold the glass panel in place.
