I am building kitchen upper glass cabinet doors. I am looking for clips to retain glass panel. The only clips I found are ones from Rockler and they are plastic ones. Are there any other clips and which type and manufacturer is the best? Also what glass thickness is recommended for kitchen doors?
Lee Valley has a couple of kinds. But I'm thinking of going with silicone glue, add strength to the door, or so I was told. The glass I'm looking at is 1/16" bubble. Glass place said 1/16 is what is mostly used. Cut my rabbet 1/8 x5/16".
Check with the place that you are going to buy the glass from. They should have what ever you want providing you buy from an actual glass store vs. Home Depot or the like.

I am NOT related at all, I just appreciate the time they have saved me.

You might want to look at using glass retaining moldings. Sold in rolls of either clear or brown. The molding sets inside the rabbet and the glass is pressed in place in the molding. Molding holds glass in place and keeps it from rattling in the frames.
