Home Depot Launches Smart Glass Doors That Turn From Clear to Opaque

Home Depot today launched new Smart Glass Door options that are able to transform from clear glass to opaque glass with a smartphone app, providing versatility for customers who want to be able to block light or people from seeing inside a home at select times of the day.

The Smart Glass Doors are made by Feather River Doors and are powered through Hubspace, a smart home app that integrates with several products sold by Home Depot, including light bulbs, ceiling fans, blinds, outlets, and locks.

The Smart Glass Doors can be controlled with an app that's available on the iPhone, but there is no HomeKit integration or support for Siri, which is a major downside for people who have a ‌HomeKit‌ setup. There is, however, support for Alexa and Google voice control.

When activated, the glass in the door is able to change from clear to privacy, which is a more opaque look. The glass is laminated for energy efficiency, and the door itself is made from fiberglass filled with high density polyurethane foam. It is unpainted, so it can be painted to match a home.

There are several models with different amounts of glass, with pricing that starts at $800. The doors will be available in select Home Depot stores starting on October 28.

Great, so in ten years you have to swap out your door because it lost support.

No thank you to more smart home junk.

Things I definitely don't need in my life: worrying about charging the batteries on the door, figuring out whatever the heck "Hubspace Smart Home Platform" is.

Maybe they'll get around to enabling contactless payments (Apple Pay) now.

What a positive attitude towards life!
Smart home stuff isn't necessary for life, or even very interesting.

I prefer to keep my fixed home appliances and parts (doors, etc.) as long as physically possible.

If anyone has lived the Siri demise of the OG HomePod, then they'll understand the pessimism.
