Frosted entry doors

On every rig we have purchased there is a frosted entry door. I personally would like the manufacturers to offer options. Frosted, or clear.

Any comments?

Prefer frosted. I mounted clear (removable) panels over the screen door ...



... so anytime we're camping the main door is always latched fully open, thus the window is irrelevant, but at night when both doors are closed the frosted window provides additional privacy. :B

Went to crystal glass and ordered 12 7/16 x 21 7/16 x 1/8" tempered grey glass for $36. About a 10 min install with a second pair of hands to ensure the glass is supported during install. Done several for friends also.

:) Hi, my frosted window would glare if on the sunny side. No room for a window shade so I covered the window with chrome bubble insulation. I used it like this for several years and then I removed the chrome bubble insulation and installed a Stained Glass film on my window. It looks great and greatly reduced the glare.

It's not difficult to upgrade the window:

Entry Door Window Assembly Complete With Integrated Slim Shade

Thanks so much for this post Dutch. This is exactly what we've been needing. There's another one out there that doesn't look quite as nice and is something like $300 - not worth it to me but for $89 it sure is.
Ordering one now!

That's great, Scott! I installed one of these on our previous coach and we really liked it. Our current coach has a larger than standard tinted factory window and shade anyway, so we didn't need to change anything this time.

That is what I did worked out GREAT!

Here's an entry door window that opens:

Nice one Dutch ! I replaced my frosted with clear tempered glass for about $30, but as mentioned, then need a curtain or shade.

When I needed a curtain, I put a one inch by half inch board across the wall above the door. On the top edge I added a full width piece of fridge magnet material. We then designed the curtain with the matching fridge magnet material into the top of the curtain. The magnets have enough attraction to hold perfectly, and then we take it off and stow it when not needed. You could even put another magnet strip in the curtain half way up for partial opening.

I have two windows on each side but a clear door window would be great. Artum’s suggestion is a good one.
