Worked for me without escaping the spaces:

use strict;
use warnings;

my $path = '\\Dollar\C\TempNew Folder';

print "$pathn";
(my $gpath = $path) =~ s|\|/|g;
print "$gpathn";
print "$_n" foreach glob "$gpath/*";

__END__

//Dollar/C/Temp/New Folder/a b c.d
//Dollar/C/Temp/New Folder/foo
//Dollar/C/Temp/New Folder/fubar.txt
