Any idea what I can do with shower doors that I just removed

Question

I just removed my 11 year old shower doors that don't work very well.  I was hoping to use them in a recycling project.  What can you do with old shower doors?

yeah, i was thinking greenhouse... or a garden screen, let light in but keep some privacy?... I've seen people on Pinterest use old glass doors as picture frames kind of thing... some kind of homemade table tops...?

Micki · Answer

Maybe there is a way to hinge them together to use as a porch or home screen and either paint, stencil or apply a stained glass effect.

we surrounded a shower door with boards and made it into a door.  route a groove into the wood for the glass to fit into, add caulk in the grooves for protection.  keep adding boards to the bottom or top for correct size.  assemble the glass section last

Deebs · Answer

There's a yard in my neighborhood that used them horizontally as short walls in a section of their garden. They painted the metal of the doors green to match/blend in the garden.

Privacy fence panels? Sometype of upright framing and drill holes in metal and some type of hooks/wire to hang them?

Hi, my man said he used a hacksaw but he did break the first panel, so you have to be careful. use tongue and groove boards to create the door.

Make a wind break along a deck.

Use them to make a water feature for the garden. I have seen cascading water running down opaque glass panels in entrances to corporate office buildings. Back light with color lamps rotating or use rope lights. The waterfall makes a soothing sound and should have a very relaxing effect.

Mix in a little Rain Forest audio and your all set.

They make a great top for a cold frame. Just add hinges and there is your top. Open during the day and close at night.

Redcatcec · Answer

Use them as a backdrop in a garden.

Use as part of a greenhouse or the top of a cold frame.
