Obscure Glass
Patterned and privacy glass that allows natural light while limiting the view through a window or door.
Product overview
Made around your specification
Obscure glass is used when a room needs daylight and privacy together. Different patterns provide different visual effects and privacy levels, allowing the glass to complement either modern or traditional interiors. It is commonly selected for bathrooms, cloakrooms, entrance doors, side panels and decorative features.
The pattern, privacy rating, orientation and required safety specification all affect the final choice. DC Glass can help customers compare available designs, including familiar Pilkington patterns and Opal-style options, before the piece or sealed unit is made.

Helpful information
Obscure Glass FAQs
Does obscure glass block all visibility?
Privacy varies by pattern and lighting. Some designs heavily distort shapes while others provide a lighter level of screening, so the required privacy level should be discussed.
Can obscure glass be toughened?
Many patterns can be supplied in an appropriate safety specification. Availability depends on the selected design, thickness and finished size.
Which side should the pattern face?
Orientation depends on the pattern, cleaning access and use. We can confirm the usual arrangement when the design and delivery are known.
Do you offer secure delivery?
Yes. DC Glass offers supply and secure delivery across Hampshire, West Sussex, Surrey, Berkshire and Wiltshire. Collection from Horndean is also available by arrangement.
Do you work with homeowners and trade customers?
Yes. We supply domestic customers, tradespeople, property professionals and commercial organisations, from single replacement pieces to larger scheduled orders.
How do I get an accurate quotation?
Send the measurements, intended use, glass or unit type, preferred finish and delivery postcode. Photographs or drawings are helpful. We will confirm any missing technical details before manufacture.
How long will my order take?
Lead times depend on the glass type, processing, quantity and delivery requirements. We provide an estimated timescale once the specification has been reviewed.
