About Project
These glass doors are designed to fit the Classic Storage Wall, but Beth choose to use this plan to make new "glass" kitchen cabinets with this plan. She used florescent lighting plates for just $8 each instead of glass for a beautiful translucent door. This plan works with the Classic Storage Wall Hutch, but you can modify it to fit your needs, as Beth did.

Step 1

Back boards. Layout the boards that are 2 1/2″ wide as shown above. Square up your layout and make sure you are working on a clean level surface.
Step 2
Front Stiles. Attach the front stiles with glue, clamps and 5/8″ brad nails. Make sure you have added glue in the joint on the back trim too. Let dry according to glue directions.
Step 3
Front Rails. Measure and cut the front rails to fit the sides of the front. Dry fit. Then attach in the same method as you did the stiles from step 2.
Step 4
Acrylic. Your hardware store may be willing to cut your acrylic for you. If not, cut your acrylic with a fine toothed metal cutting blade. Using multisurface clear drying glue (Gorilla Glue is a good one) glue the acrylic in place. You may wish to paint or stain your frame before applying the acrylic.
Step 5
Trim. You can optionally add trim, like this to finish out the tops of the glass. Another good options is wood beading. You may wish to paint or stain your trim before gluing to the acylic.
