| cheap deals on perspex on ebay and they'll cut it to size for you for free, and if you buy one you get the delivery on the second for just £1, so it's alot cheaper than buying one big sheet and getting the two doors cut out of one piece. I thought this was pretty swish, although possibly not worth breaking your ebay boycott for kazerella. |

I was just thinking about B&Q when reading this, because from recollection my local one (Christchurch, Dorset) sells it in 3x3 foot for under a tenner, plenty enough to make a couple of doors.
Although that is only for 3mm thick stuff which is normally a bit flexible that can cause escape.
Doubling up though, to make an average of 2 doors at 18inch long x 15inch tall* would use up nearly all of the 3 foot square perspex, but would be nice and thick and secure, plus more resistant to knocks than glass.
* Assuming a standard 3 foot viv, allowing for overhang between the doors. |
