    You need to measure and order a new piece of glass .I assume it is double glazed.You can order glass in greany glass in carnmore, there is other places in town aswell.

    The glass is probaly held in with 4 strips of timber if you carfully remove them you should be able to reuse them.the glass may well be also be held with silicone which may also make it hard to remove. If you are unsure about doing it ring one of the glass companies and they will know someone that will fix it for you.Do you know where the door was made ? If it was a local joinery why not give them a call.

    Any of the glass companies will sort you out with the glass. If you need the glazing slips replaced, i can make them and drop them off at any of the glass suppliers for you. If it's 4 simple pieces- no charge.;)
