Update Your Home With Decorative Doorglass

Posted: 11/12/2010

You can have a new home at the old address by updating your front door.

(NAPSI) - Freshening up your home’s appearance has never been easier. In fact, a chance to improve your home’s curb appeal, energy efficiency, comfort and good looks can be right at your front door.

A clever way to give your home a “makeover” is to install a door with decorative doorglass, which can give the house a new “personality,” increase privacy and pull together an architectural style. ODL, the design leader in decorative doorglass focuses on helping you improve the curb appeal of your home by offering decorative doorglass that you can easily switch out with some professional help or by yourself if you’re handy. Styles range from craftsman and classic to contemporary.

The Choice is Yours

Doorglass from ODL, the market leader in doorglass designs, offers a wide selection of choices, including about 50 decorative doorglass designs, in addition to a custom design program that allows the homeowner to design their own doorglass. They have more fresh designs in a wide range of price points to meet homeowner preferences, and their dedicated design team focuses on researching interior and exterior home design trends to create decorative doorglass to fit the needs of any home’s decor.

ODL’s clear doorglass is constructed of two panels of tempered safety glass that are sealed and insulated for airtight, watertight performance. The decorative doorglass with trim has a third inner panel sealed between two outer panels. So, if you’re planning a green renovation, you don’t have to compromise beauty or natural light. ODL doorglass can be used in doors to meet ENERGY STAR® and Green Building criteria.

Decorative doorglass allows homeowners to put their stamp on their home’s entryway. A few things to consider include:

• Caming—The metal banding that joins panels of glass together in a design. It’s a small detail with a big effect on the overall look of your entry.

• Opacity—How much privacy does each decorative glass design afford? Transparent glass lets a clear view through the glass into the home. Obscure glass allows only a view of shadows and color with no distinguishable shapes. Most homeowners prefer that their entry door has some degree of obscurity.

• Configuration—Would you like a grand entryway complete with a transom and sidelites on each side of the door? Or, is an elegant, understated door more your style?

• Painting and Finishing—Door frames can be left unpainted, painted or stained to match your home’s decor.
