The Story Behind Etched Glass Closet Doors

The process of etching a glass to create stunning etched glass closet doors is quite complicated. There are several processes used to frost the glass. The most popular are the slightly less accurate way of sandblasting and the Leptat acid process.

Sandblasting gives a glass an abrasive look while the Leptat process creates a glass with a crystalline surface and a deeply etched texture. Whatever design process your etched glass closet door is made of, it still provides the kind of translucency that allows light but will not compromise your privacy.
