    Hi there

    Just wondering is it possible to use opaque glass on internal doors like bathroom and bedrooms.
    Has anyone got this type of glass on their doors, and if so, can you see outlines/shadows through it or does it keep rooms private while letting out enough light into the hallway?
    Any info appreciated.

    Opaque glass is non see through nor does it let light through.
    Think of enamel paint on glass, that is opaque.
    Translucent glass will let light through but does not allow you to see in to the room, you my distinguish shapes if the glass is very translucent.
    Probably the best and cheapest method is to buy stick-on sandblast transfers.
    These make the glass translucent and still allow reasonable light transfer.

    Sand blasted type finish on 6mm glass works well in doors to w.c.
    Maintains complete privacy while allowing light to pass thru.
    Enquire at local glass shop.
