"In response to the increasing consumer demand and popularity of the Architectural Elements Doorglass, ODL decided to extend the selection of decorative doorglass to provide consumers with more patterns and texture options," says Garza.

The Architectural Elements Doorglass series features unique corner medallions that can be coordinated to match the glass caming. With no screw hole plugs, the fluted frames are easy to install, ready to stain or paint and will not warp or split. The Architectural Elements Doorglass series comes standard with a 20-year warranty.

The new doorglass designs - Amulet, Kilim and Lotus - add dramatic accents to full, three-quarter and half-lite door applications. Coordinating add-on fiberglass molded panels for three-quarter or half-lite doors are available. These new designs boldly differentiate the finished look of the door.

*The Amulet design adds elegance and grandeur to any home with its Chinchilla glass, a fine pattern with resemblance to fur.
*The Kilim offers homeowners the comfort of the traditional classic doorglass design featuring clear jewels, granite glass, clear bevels and seedy glass.
*The Lotus brings a modern feel to any home with its clear cluster bevels, criss-cross glass and clear jewels.
