A common desire to "upgrade a kitchen look" is to convert a few raised panel or flat panel doors to use glass panel inserts.
It best accomplished modifying the existing doors rather than replacing them. The modification allows the same wood specie, grain, edge shapes, hinge locations, etc to all be saved.
The requirement is to cut away the backside of the door frame lumber stile and rails to allow removal of the center panel and eventual fitting of a new glass panel.
The typical cost is $110 to $220 per door with an average of $165 each, assuming two or more doors.
Irregular top shapes or touchup of the raw machined wood on the back side adds additional cost. We do not fit the glass but do provide the glass retainer tabs to hold it in place.
F the door is below wall level the owner should consider tempered or safety glass for safety reasons. Available from your local glass experts.
