Pivot Shower Doors in Nashville

Pivot doors hang from pins at the top and bottom, so the door swings on a pivot point for a distinctive, luxe look.

About Pivot Shower Doors

A dramatic, balanced swing

Pivot doors turn on hinges set in the top and bottom of the door rather than along the side, which gives them a balanced, sculptural look. They often swing both in and out.

They suit wide openings and make a statement. We check floor, ceiling and curb conditions carefully, since pivots carry weight through the pins.

How Pivots Work

Pivot hardware carries the door’s weight through the top and bottom, and the door turns around that point.

The Process

How We Work With You

01

Free Measure

Call 615-357-7797 or send the form. We visit, check the walls, curb and tile and measure the opening carefully, including out-of-plumb walls.

02

Choose Glass and Hardware

We help you compare door styles, glass types, thickness, finishes and handles and settle on a design that suits the bath.

03

Fabricate and Install

Your glass is made to the measurements, then installed with hardware set level, plumb and sealed where needed.

04

Final Check and Care Tips

We test the door, check every seal and hinge with you and explain how to keep the glass looking new.

Every door and enclosure is measured and confirmed with a visit before glass is made, and building and code requirements depend on your property and location.
