Soon it will be cold, and then you'll want to light a fire 
I have a Marieberg "Karl" where one of the panes cracked after some unfortunate impact.
It turns out that our stove is not standard regarding how the glass is mounted in the cast iron. On our stove, they are glued with a transparent silicone-like agent that should withstand the high heat in the stove.
It can't be heat silicone because that only withstands up to 300 degrees, right?
Any tips on where I can find this agent - because the tile firms in Uppsala don't know what I need.
The "other" stoves have the glass mounted with a soft strip and a screwed bracket - but I have nowhere to screw a bracket/strip in my stove.

Call the manufacturer!

Thank you for your answers. I have spoken with marieberg but they don't have such a product and they are not aware of the solution we have (even though marieberg did the installation in 2002). The thing is that the original company went bankrupt and then restarted. They want about 2000kr to come to us and take a look - without guarantees that they can attach the glass. About 12+12km travel distance...a bit expensive for a piece of glass I thought.
The Casco product might work but it is black (easy to smear on the glass) and it doesn't say it adheres to glass, but maybe?
I'll check on that heat-resistant sealant too.

Can advise against testing Casco 4077. Sika has a similar product called Firestop. And it's very difficult to make it look nice. I have worked with sealing compounds for several years and have tested both products multiple times. But as a hidden joint. Most so-called fire sealants are only meant to last a certain amount of time. All sealing compounds burn up after a while. I would opt to take the hatch to a mechanical workshop and have a sheet metal or similar welded there. To then be able to attach the glass with screws.
FYI. I skipped the silicone-like option and instead bought fiberglass packing 87-473 at Biltema for the heat glass, which included an adhesive that withstands heat. So there is now an adhesive edge around the glass - pressed it into place and "fastened" it with the strip and with the help of a few washers.
Then I sealed a bit more with stove sealant that I had at home.
It's still holding after about 10 fires, so it seems to be working so far.
