Glass fronted kitchen cabinets can be a stunning statement piece in any kitchen, in any style. From traditional kitchens with glass cabinets to showcase the best crockery, to contemporary kitchens with glass cabinets to create a visual feature or display, there are a number of different style options available. But to achieve the perfect result, you will need to choose the right type of glass. So what are the most effective glass options for kitchen cabinets? Well, here at MLS Kitchens, we are Manchester’s leading kitchen design professionals. As a result, we have produced this guide to everything you should know about the different types of glass for kitchen cabinet doors.

What are the different types of glass for kitchen cabinets?

There are a wide range of glass types available for kitchen cabinets, and these include:

  • Clear and transparent- One of the most popular options is standard, clear and transparent glass. This is very effective in farmhouse, traditional and even in modern kitchens, and this is used to showcase the items inside the cabinet, rather than make a feature of the glass itself. This can be a striking addition to your kitchen, although some maintenance will be needed to keep the glass clean, clear and smudge free!
  • Textured glass panels- textured glass can be a good choice for traditional, farmhouse and contemporary kitchens, depending on the style of the texture and pattern. The advantage of choosing textured glass is that this will hide the contents of your cabinets while instead drawing attention to the glass itself. The glass will also reflect natural light, helping your kitchen feel larger and more spacious.
  • Patterned glass- stained glass or patterned glass can also be an effective option for your kitchen cabinets, although this style is more suited to traditional and farmhouse kitchens.
