Look again.

I've seen lots of kitchen cabinets, and made a few panels for some of them
in my time. I have NEVER seen a piece of glass permanently installed in a
door frame. I betcha you have overlooked a trim stop, most of them are on
the inside. Maybe the seam between the stop and the frame is painted and
you just don't see how to get the glass panel out of the door.

No reputable cabinet maker would ever install glass in a door while he's
making it. Too much chance for breakage in the shop and they need to be
able to repair breakage that might occur during shipping..

Take the doors to a cabinet shop; ask if they can route it out if you have
someone
cut out the glass. New glass could be installed with clips or silicone.

The problem with trying to do this, is that the glass is inserted into a
channel before the door is assembled, and then it's probably glued. It's
a
shaker door style. They also have one where the glass in inside a
mitered
frame. The doors are from IKEA, and they are that awful screened glass
with the
squares on it. Would love to put in a better glass. If their glass doors
can't
be taken apart, the other option is to buy a solid door, and route it
out, but
then I would need a matching trim piece in the same wood color.

Anyone take apart an IKEA glass kitchen door, and replace the glass?
Please
also e-mail me, if kind enough to respond. Thanks!
