Product Description
CMT Glass Panel Retainers are a purpose-built rubber retention solution designed to secure glass panels in door frames without adhesive. Compatible with CMT's 3-piece glass panel router bit sets and stile and rail sets, these retainers fit into a 3.2mm (1/8 in.) slot cut into door frame stock, holding decorative or plain glass firmly in place for a clean, professional cabinet door finish.
Key Features
- Rubber panel retainer design - secures glass panels in routed frame grooves without the need for adhesive, allowing for non-destructive glass installation and future glass replacement
- Engineered for 3.2mm (1/8 in.) slots - fits precisely into the groove profile cut by CMT glass panel router bit sets, ensuring a snug, rattle-free fit
- Part of a 3-piece glass panel bit set system - designed to work within CMT's complete stile and rail routing system so all components align and function together without guesswork
Why This Product
- Eliminates the need for glazing compound or adhesive - the rubber retainer holds glass mechanically in the routed slot, making the installation cleaner and the glass accessible if it ever needs to be swapped out
- Matched to the CMT glass panel routing system - because these retainers are sized specifically for the 1/8 in. slot produced by CMT's router bit sets, there is no need to size or modify a generic retainer to fit the groove profile
- Enables glass panel door construction - combined with CMT stile and rail sets, woodworkers can produce framed glass panel cabinet doors with a traditional look and secure glass retention in a single coordinated workflow
- Rubber material provides a cushioned hold - the retainer sits between the glass edge and the routed groove, reducing the risk of glass cracking from direct hard contact with the wood frame

Frequently Asked Questions
What slot size do these glass panel retainers fit into?
These retainers are designed to fit a 3.2mm (1/8 in.) slot. That is the groove width produced by CMT's glass panel router bit sets when cutting stile and rail door frames.
Do I need adhesive to secure the glass panel when using these retainers?
No adhesive is required. The rubber retainer is pressed into the routed 1/8 in. slot and holds the glass panel mechanically, keeping it secure within the door frame without bonding agents.
What router bit sets are these retainers designed to be used with?
These retainers are part of CMT's glass panel door system and are intended for use with CMT's 3-piece glass panel bit sets and stile and rail router bit sets, which produce the compatible 1/8 in. groove in door frame components.
Can these retainers be used to hold decorative panels as well as plain glass?
Yes. The retainer system is designed to secure glass panels in routed door frames, and the same 1/8 in. slot and rubber retainer approach can accommodate decorative panels that fit the same groove profile.
