Our experienced team can design and install a custom shower that will work with your bathroom’s layout and space, align with your budget, and most importantly, suit your unique aesthetic.

Choosing the Right Glass Shower Enclosure

We offer three different types of glass shower enclosures to Cary residents to ensure you get the look and design you want.

Framed Shower Doors

Framed shower doors are a more traditional look and also the most affordable option. Because of the support frame along the top and bottom of the enclosure as well as framing that connects adjoining panels and the door, lightweight glass can be used while ensuring structural stability. Our framed shower doors are available in a variety of metal finishes including stainless steel, brushed nickel, oiled bronze, and brass.

Semi-Frameless Glass Shower Enclosures

Semi-frameless shower enclosures blend elements of frameless and framed options by leaving door edges frameless but adding structural support where the door hinge or glass panels come together. To ensure stability, we use ¼-inch glass panels to create this attractive look.

Frameless Shower Enclosure

A fully frameless shower enclosure creates an open, “floating” look. For stability, we use heavy, …œ-inch to ½-inch glass panels and the low-profile hardware and installed handles within the glass ensure a clean, minimal look. This option is growing in popularity, especially with designers and architects who favor a modern look or who are designing a spa-like bathroom.

Adds Value to Your Home

If you plan on selling your home in the future, you need to consider the resale value or return on investment you’ll get from your bathroom remodel. Choosing to elevate your bathroom with a sophisticated, custom glass shower enclosure will make it more appealing to prospective homebuyers who will love the bright, airy feel of the bathroom as well as the minimal maintenance required.

Adds Visual Appeal

While traditional shower curtains create a visual block, making your bathroom appear smaller and darker, glass enclosures have the opposite effect. Frameless shower enclosures are particularly good for making your bathroom seem larger, more open, and brighter as there are no visual barriers and natural and artificial light can pass easily through the entire space.

Minimal Maintenance

Glass shower doors are also incredibly easy to take care of, particularly compared to having to clean or replace shower curtains. With a mild cleanser and a squeegee, spots and residue are easily removed while hard water stains and mineral deposits are wiped clean with our custom glass cleansers.

Custom Shapes and Design

A shower enclosure, especially frameless options, are nearly limitless in their design and shape. We can turn an unused or awkward corner of the bathroom into an attractive corner or create a spacious hexagonal shower using custom glass panels. Our experienced glass installation team will work with you to design and install a beautiful, luxurious shower that you will love.

Since frameless shower doors are made of tempered glass, they tend to be more durable than framed shower doors. This is due to their high-quality construction and use of tempered glass. Without the metal frame that covers up potential weak points, frameless shower doors are able to incorporate thicker glass that can withstand more force and pressure. In addition, frameless shower doors also often feature reinforced edges for added strength and stability.

Glass shower doors and enclosures are made of tempered glass. Tempered glass, also referred to as safety glass, has the ability to withstand pressure which means it is less likely to break. Since tempered glass is processed by thermal treatments, its strength in relation to normal glass is much greater.
