A little unconventional but I've used the film that's used on storefront windows to protect against arson, bombs etc. With the adhesive that you can <span></span>also attached the pane to its frame the thing becomes, well, bombproof. It will shatter but stay in place. You have to hack it with a bat fifty times to get through. <br>

So I'm finally getting around to putting this roof together. I appreciate the glass patio door reuse idea, and am proceeding full steam. Got four doors already. <br>....<br><br></div>Except I just found out via that crazy thing we call the internet that these tempered panels can't be cut! Three of the doors will work out full height, but the width I'd settled on for most of the roof is 53". I figured I'd just have the local glass shop cut all those ~77" doors down to 53" and I'd be in business. Ha!<br>
<br>Running the doors the other way isn't really a possibility. Or at least I've not thought of a clever way to make that work. <br><br></div>Thoughts? <br></div><div><br><br><div>
