Create a veranda with recycled glass?




by Mae-thurine-04 » 03/03/22, 10:14

Hello, for a little while glass plates have been lying around in my garage and I don't know what to do with them, do you think it is possible to make a veranda with recycled glass? If you've done it before, do you have any advice before I get started? thank you in advance

It depends on the dimensions and is it double glazing because a veranda requires thermal insulation...

You have pictures ? Are the frames with it?

I'd rather recycle them in the greenhouse...that's what I did more than 10 years ago and it works wonderfully!

Hello, really beautiful what you managed to do! I don't currently have any photos with me, but no, it's not double glazing, it seems to me that it's clear or extra-clear glazing, I'm not sure! It's true that I haven't thought about insulation and that might be a problem :// I'm only thinking about a project for now but maybe I should turn my veranda project into a greenhouse effectively! I'll think about all of this! Or else I may be able to paint it and make a covering or several wall coverings... Do you think it can be painted?

Of course it is painted on glass, it has even been an artistic technique for centuries! 8)

Beware of the use of simple glass on the veranda roof...The day you have a good shower of hail or heavy snowfall: DANGER
