can it be built without putting the glass doors on it

Yes, however there will be tracks for the glass visable. Great stand overall
1609269
Yes, the glass doors just slide back and forth in thin slots along the length of the stand. You can just skip that step and keep assembling.

Yes... But if you will want them later it will be some work to put them in. If I had to do over... I'd cover one opening and leave two openings without the doors.

I didn't put the glass doors on and it looks good. Don't know about the side shelf.

No, you would need to build your own enclosure or have someone else build it.

Yes, it can be assembled without the trays. Just omit the tray assembly instructions.

No there is no glass door on this...there is a space in front of the metal design to possibly put a thin piece of glass in front of the metal...hope this helps!

Yes, the glass panels are attached to the doors, however, you do not have to put the doors on the unit. We initially left them off, but then decided to put the doors on to hide some of the wires and components.

No, but it's possible to remove the glass panes to paint them or replace them with thin wood panels. One of the glass panes cracked during assembly and a local frame shop cut me another one.

Yes, there is a big opening behind the glass door areas. It should allow plenty of heat dissipation for components.

No. There are glass sides, and a glass reinforcement that runs up the center of the back (only about 10" wide, if memory serves). We thought that there was a front "door" on it when we purchased it. We were slightly disappointed when we found out that it did not have one, but it still serves its purpose (it's a doll shelf in our daughter's room).

Yes; fairly. You are able to build it without the bar from the start. If you build it with the bar you would have to knock of the cap on the bottom of the leg, pull the attachment off that the bar sets on and then put the cap back on. Not too hard but would take at least 10 minutes. Hope that helps!

Haven't tried it, of course, but my sense is that it would be a fairly tough and noisy process to do it. The door is in a track all the way around, so the door would have to be broken away. Steeltoed boots, lying on your back, kicking that narrow area of glass ? It could probably be done but not easily.

Yes you can make any size under the whole size of the kit and no windows at all. We are just going top cover ours with Plexiglas to make it a bit more strong in the wind.

No. They use the glass as the weight to support it. Without the glass, very flimsy.

No. It had to be assembled. It was actually a bit physically demanding to put together. Not a project for the weak.

No, you have to assemble it yourself. Fairly easy though just make sure things are level when putting together. A slight slant and the doors look crooked.

Without seeing the window I really don't know. There are 2 parts to the door that have to be fastened together, so I don't know how you would do it with glass unless you could fastened it to the wooden frame of the window.

Technically, not by design. The side rails are made up of 4 separate pieces (2 front, 2 back). You would probably lose the support needed to keep them stable if you left the roof off. Also, I think the door side front rail help keep the door in place and pivoting (although, the door doesn't line up well regardless, so...)
