Glass guide

Planning a glass wall panel for the kitchen: neat, made-to-measure splash protection

In the kitchen, a wall panel has two jobs: it should reliably keep off splashes, grease and moisture while also matching the worktop, the unit fronts and the lighting.

Where glass makes particular sense

The wall is under most strain behind the hob, the sink and the worktop. A made-to-measure glass wall panel protects the wall, can be wiped down quickly and looks calmer than lots of small joints.

Considering cut-outs early

Sockets, switches, taps, the extractor hood and adjoining cupboards shape the planning. Photos and rough measurements help to identify these details early, before the site survey and production take shape.

Checking colour and effect in the room

Glass can be understated, colourful or a deliberate accent. The surface is best matched to the worktop, the unit fronts, the wall colour and the light in the room.
