Privacy with bathroom windows, overlooking porch
Comments (6)I have a frosted Anderson window in my upstairs bath and I was planning to use the same kind in my powder room which would face my porch. I think it adds adequate privacy, but its hard to say since its upstairs and no one looks directly at the window. I also have a stained glass window in another part of the house and it would not provide adequate privacy. Pretty though. If you just want light, I hear light tubes are great (but no ventilation). I was also thinking of keeping my window quite small for security reasons (could be easy break in point in the back of the house). So many decisions.... OT- Thanks Lavender_Lass for all your help with my kitchen layout. I think I am making progress. I'll post a revision on Kitchen forum soon....See MorePrivacy glass on a bathroom door
Comments (8)Thanks everyone for your input. I like that chart from the Simpsons door website. We would want one of a privacy rating of 10 or 9. The acid etched ones are worth checking out. Dennis, this door would lead to a bathroom. The toilet is a few feet from the door, so yes we need privacy LOL. Carol...See MoreBathroom privacy - frosted windows
Comments (8)Not sure if one needs to disrobe in front of the window to see if its effective or not, lol, however I do agree with having a spouse or friend moving about on the interior in a fashion that you normally would to see what privacy it offers. Keep in mind that the closer you are to the glass, its effectiveness at obscuring the occupant(s) is diminished. In short, if the window is in the shower, you may have a legit worry. If its 4 ft away however, not likely that much will be seen....See MoreCreating bathroom window privacy?
Comments (11)It's a small HOA and there are no identical houses, so lots of flexibility. The reason they didn't like the wall idea is that they don't want to hide the houses behind solid structures -- they did suggest a green wall, however. So it feels like there are different options here, I've been looking for example projects of folks with the same challenge. I like the idea of having more light come in and making the bathroom feel "open", but not at the expense of privacy given it's facing a street....See MorePN _Bos
