What is the difference between frameless and framed doors?
Frameless doors use thick tempered glass held by hinges and clamps with no metal frame around the edges. Framed and semi-frameless doors use a frame to support thinner glass. Frameless looks cleaner and more open, and framed can be a practical option.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We install shower glass for hotels, apartments, gyms, senior living, short-term rentals, spas and builders, with durable hardware and a repeatable standard.
Can you repair or replace my existing door?
Yes. We repair sagging, sticking and leaking doors, replace worn hardware, restore cloudy glass and replace doors that are past repair.
How long does a custom door take?
Custom glass is made to order after we measure, so it takes longer than a stock door. We explain the timing when we measure.
What thickness of glass should I choose?
Frameless doors commonly use 3/8 inch glass, and 1/2 inch gives a heavier feel for larger doors. We help you choose based on size and style.
What is low-iron glass?
Low-iron glass has less iron, so it has less of the green tint of standard glass. It looks clearer and truer to color, especially with white tile.
Do frameless doors leak?
A well-planned, well-installed door keeps water in very well. Panel placement, seals and the shower layout all matter, and we explain what to expect.
How do I clean shower glass?
Squeegee after showers and use gentle cleaners made for glass. Avoid abrasive pads and harsh chemicals. Our Glass Care Planner gives a schedule and do and don’t tips.
Can cloudy glass be restored?
Surface buildup can often be cleaned off. Deep etching in the glass cannot always be reversed, and we tell you honestly what to expect.
What finish should I choose for the hardware?
Many people match their faucet, and mixing finishes on purpose can look great too. Brushed and matte finishes hide spots better than polished ones.
Do I need a door on a walk-in shower?
Not always. Many walk-in showers use a fixed panel and no door. Layout, shower head position and floor slope decide how well it contains water.
When should the glass be measured?
After the tile, curb and any waterproofing are finished, so the glass fits the final opening. Tempered glass cannot be cut after it is made.
