I use plexi glass and attach it with hinges and screws, secured with barrel-bolt locks. You can use sliding glass tracks for normal glass or plexi glass, but I don't find it secure enough. It eventually gives way and becomes loose not making it the best choice for larger snakes.

I've never heard of one side sanded plywood, but plywood in general is quite variable in price, depending on quality. Anywhere from $15-$80+ I've seen.

The best way to attach glass to doors (durability-wise) is to cut a groove in the middle of the side of the door frame and fit the glass in during assembly of the door, but you can get mirror clips at the hardware store that will be a quicker fix. if your not dead set on glass you can get plexi-glass/perspex which is easier to work with, you can predrill and screw it CAREFULLY directly into the frame... if your dealing with snakes it wont be a prob, but ive heard of lizards scraping it up because it CAN scratch.
