I have a few old cabinet drawers which are not in the best condition and I'm trying to get them usable again. A few of them have broken glass or no glass in the lids so I need to get them reglazed. Does anyone know what sort of place I should take them to in order to get this done? I'm not sure whether a glass shop or maybe a picture framers my be able to do such work. has anybody tried to get this done before?

Never had it done for me, but I've replaced glass in a few myself. The hard part was defeating the wood glue holding the lit corners together. I found that dipping the corners of the drawer lid in boiling water for a few minutes softened the wood glue so that the sections could be taken apart. It was then easy to remove the cracked glass, purchase a new glass from a local glass company, insert it and re-glue the corners.

Bob Bob, there are so many types of drawers, that it may be a good idea to post pictures of yours ? A+, Michel
