Why Glass Enclosures

Benefits of Custom Shower Enclosures

A custom glass shower enclosure transforms your bathroom from ordinary to extraordinary while providing practical benefits every day.

Modern, Open Aesthetic

Glass shower enclosures replace outdated curtains and framed doors with clean, transparent barriers that make your bathroom feel more spacious and luxurious.

Superior Water Containment

Multi-panel enclosures with precision seals contain water far better than curtains or single doors.

Tempered Safety Glass

Every panel uses code-compliant tempered glass that is 4-5 times stronger than standard glass and shatters into small, safe pieces if broken.

Increases Home Value

A custom glass shower enclosure is one of the highest-ROI bathroom upgrades. Buyers expect modern glass in updated bathrooms across the DMV market.

Custom Configurations

Unlike stock enclosures, every panel is custom-measured and fabricated to your exact shower dimensions. Corner, neo-angle, alcove, and walk-in -- any layout.

Low Maintenance

Glass enclosures with protective coatings resist water spots and soap scum buildup. No tracks to scrub, no curtains to wash, no mildew-prone frames.

Enclosure Types

Shower Enclosure Styles We Install

From frameless luxury enclosures to space-saving sliding doors, we install every type of glass shower enclosure for bathrooms of all sizes.

Frameless Shower Enclosures

The premium choice for modern bathrooms. Frameless enclosures use thick tempered glass with minimal hardware for a clean, open aesthetic.

  • 3/8 inch or 1/2 inch tempered glass
  • Minimal visible hardware
  • Multiple hardware finish options
  • Shows off tilework and stone
  • Makes bathrooms feel more spacious

Semi-Frameless Enclosures

A practical balance between aesthetics and budget. Semi-frameless enclosures feature a slim metal frame on the fixed panels with a frameless door.

  • Frameless door with framed panels
  • More affordable than full frameless
  • Clean, modern appearance
  • Strong structural support
  • Wide range of configurations

Sliding Shower Enclosures

Ideal for tight bathrooms where a swinging door would obstruct traffic flow. Sliding enclosures use bypass or barn-door-style tracks to open without.

  • No swing clearance needed
  • Frameless and semi-frameless options
  • Smooth-rolling track systems
  • Ideal for tub-to-shower conversions
  • Contemporary barn-door styles

Neo-Angle Enclosures

Designed for corner shower bases with an angled front. Neo-angle enclosures fit into a corner and provide a door panel at an angle, maximizing shower.

  • Corner installation for space efficiency
  • Custom-cut angled panels
  • Frameless and semi-frameless options
  • Maximizes usable shower space
  • Works with standard and custom bases

Walk-In Shower Panels

Open-concept shower designs with a fixed glass panel and no door. Walk-in panels provide a splash barrier without the need to open or close a door.

  • No door to open or close
  • Modern open-concept design
  • ADA-friendly option
  • Fixed panel with optional return
  • Easy to clean -- fewer hardware pieces

Custom Configurations

Every bathroom is different. We design and install custom shower enclosures for non-standard openings, angled ceilings, bench seats, half-walls, and.

  • Angled ceiling accommodations
  • Half-wall and knee-wall designs
  • Bench seat cutouts
  • Multi-panel configurations
  • Any opening shape or size

Residential

Shower Enclosures for Every Home Bathroom

Your home bathroom is one of the most-used rooms in the house, and the shower enclosure is its centerpiece. Whether you are remodeling a master bathroom in McLean, updating a guest bath in Bethesda, or converting a tub-to-shower in an Arlington condo, the right glass enclosure makes a dramatic difference in both appearance and function.

Frameless shower enclosures are the most requested style for residential bathrooms across the DMV. The combination of thick tempered glass, minimal hardware, and an open sightline creates a spa-like experience that homeowners love. For bathrooms with limited space, sliding or bypass enclosures eliminate the need for door swing clearance while still delivering a modern look.

We work with homeowners, interior designers, and bathroom remodeling contractors to ensure every enclosure fits the design vision and the physical space. Our measurement process accounts for out-of-plumb walls, sloped floors, and other real-world conditions that off-the-shelf enclosures cannot accommodate. Every panel is fabricated to your exact dimensions with professional edge finishing and hardware cutouts.

Popular residential configurations include single hinged doors for standard alcove showers, door-and-panel combinations for wider openings, corner enclosures with return panels, and walk-in panels for curbless shower designs. We help you choose the configuration that works best for your bathroom layout, traffic flow, and aesthetic preferences.

Glass Options

Glass Types for Shower Enclosures

Choose the glass type that matches your bathroom design, privacy needs, and maintenance preferences. Every option uses tempered safety glass.

Clear Tempered Glass

The most popular choice for frameless shower enclosures. Clear glass showcases your tilework and makes the bathroom feel open and bright. Available in 3/8 inch and 1/2 inch thicknesses.

Low-Iron (Ultra-Clear) Glass

Premium glass with the green tint removed for a crystal-clear appearance. Low-iron glass provides the truest color representation of your tile and stone.

Frosted Glass

Acid-etched for a smooth, translucent finish that provides privacy while allowing light through. Popular for shared bathrooms and powder rooms.

Rain Glass

Textured glass with a pattern that resembles raindrops on a window. Provides moderate privacy while creating a unique decorative effect.

Tinted Glass

Available in gray, bronze, and blue tints. Adds subtle color to your enclosure while providing a degree of privacy. Gray tint is most popular for modern bathrooms.

Protective Coating

An invisible coating that causes water to bead and sheet off the surface, reducing mineral deposits and soap scum. Makes cleaning significantly easier. Recommended for every enclosure.

Commercial

Commercial Shower Enclosure Installations

Hotels, fitness centers, spas, and multi-unit residential buildings across the DMV rely on us for commercial shower enclosure installations. Commercial projects require glass that meets higher durability standards, hardware that withstands heavy daily use, and installation schedules that work around active business operations.

For hotels and hospitality properties, we install shower enclosures that balance guest-facing aesthetics with long-term durability. Heavy-duty hinges, commercial-grade glass coatings, and simplified hardware reduce maintenance and replacement frequency. We coordinate with property managers and general contractors to complete installations during low-occupancy periods.

Multi-unit residential buildings often need consistent enclosure specifications across dozens or hundreds of units. We provide volume pricing, standardized hardware packages, and phased installation schedules that minimize disruption to residents. Our project management team coordinates deliveries, elevator scheduling, and unit access with building management.

Configuration Guide

Choosing the Right Enclosure Configuration

Corner / Neo-Angle Showers

For corner shower bases, a neo-angle enclosure maximizes space by angling the door panel across the corner. This creates a generous entry while keeping the footprint compact. Ideal for secondary bathrooms, guest baths, and smaller master baths where floor space is limited.

Alcove Showers

Three walls and one open side. The most common bathroom layout in the DMV -- from Arlington condos to Georgetown row homes. A single frameless door or a door-plus-panel combination creates a clean, watertight enclosure. Sliding options available for tub/shower combos.

Walk-In / Curbless Showers

No door, no curb, no barriers. A fixed glass panel provides a splash guard while the shower remains fully open. This is the most accessible and contemporary design, popular in luxury bathrooms and aging-in-place remodels across Bethesda, Potomac, and McLean.

Tub/Shower Combinations

Replace your shower curtain or old framed slider with a frameless glass enclosure on your tub. Hinged doors and sliding panels are both available. A glass tub enclosure dramatically updates the look of any bathroom without removing the tub.

Specialty

Specialty and Custom Enclosure Projects

Not every bathroom fits a standard template. We specialize in custom shower enclosure configurations that require creative problem-solving and precision fabrication. Angled ceilings in attic bathrooms, curved walls in round turret rooms, half-wall designs with glass above, bench seat accommodations, and multi-head shower systems with specific splash zone requirements are all within our capabilities.

ADA-compliant and aging-in-place shower enclosures are a growing segment of our work across the DMV. Walk-in panels with no door provide barrier-free access for wheelchair users and those with mobility limitations. We work with occupational therapists and accessibility consultants to ensure enclosure designs meet specific patient needs while maintaining an attractive appearance.

Steam shower enclosures require additional engineering to contain steam within the shower space. We install fully sealed enclosures with transom panels above the door and proper ventilation integration. Glass panels for steam showers use thicker glass and more robust sealing to handle the heat and moisture levels of a steam environment.

Care and Maintenance

Keeping Your Shower Enclosure Looking New

Proper care extends the life and beauty of your glass shower enclosure. Follow these simple practices to keep your glass sparkling.

Squeegee After Each Use

The single most effective way to prevent water spots and mineral buildup is to squeegee the glass after every shower. It takes 30 seconds and dramatically reduces cleaning time.

Weekly Cleaning

Clean the glass weekly with a non-abrasive glass cleaner or a mixture of white vinegar and water. Spray, let sit for a few minutes, then wipe with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads.

Hardware Maintenance

Wipe down hinges, clamps, and handles with a damp cloth weekly to remove soap residue. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners on hardware finishes. Check screws periodically.

Seal Inspection

Inspect silicone seals along the bottom, sides, and wall connections annually. If you notice gaps, discoloration, or mold in the silicone, contact us for resealing.

Common Questions

Shower Enclosure FAQ

What is the difference between frameless and semi-frameless shower enclosures?
Frameless shower enclosures use thick tempered glass (typically 3/8 inch or 1/2 inch) with minimal hardware and no metal framing around the glass panels. Semi-frameless enclosures have a metal frame along the top and sides of the fixed panels but a frameless swinging or sliding door. Frameless enclosures offer a cleaner, more modern appearance while semi-frameless provide additional structural support at a lower cost.
How long does shower enclosure installation take?
Most shower enclosure installations are completed in one day. The process starts with a detailed measurement appointment, followed by glass fabrication (typically 7-10 business days), then installation day. Simple single-door enclosures may take 3-4 hours to install. Larger multi-panel enclosures may take a full day.
What type of glass is used in shower enclosures?
All shower enclosure glass is tempered safety glass, required by building codes. Tempered glass is 4-5 times stronger than regular glass and breaks into small, rounded pieces rather than sharp shards. Standard thickness is 3/8 inch for frameless and 1/4 inch for semi-frameless. We also offer low-iron, frosted, rain, and tinted options.
Can you install a shower enclosure on a tiled shower?
Yes. We install shower enclosures on tile, marble, stone, and solid-surface walls. The hardware is anchored through the tile into the wall studs or backing. Proper waterproofing at every penetration point is critical, and our installers seal every anchor point.
Do you offer glass treatments to prevent water spots?
Yes. We offer protective glass coatings that create an invisible barrier on the glass surface. This treatment causes water to bead and sheet off the glass, significantly reducing mineral deposits, soap scum, and water spots. We recommend this for every shower enclosure.
What hardware finishes are available for shower enclosures?
We offer shower enclosure hardware in brushed nickel, polished chrome, matte black, oil-rubbed bronze, satin brass, and polished brass. All hardware is solid brass construction with durable finishes that resist corrosion in wet environments.
How do I choose between a sliding and a hinged shower enclosure?
Hinged (swing) doors require clearance space in front of the shower opening. Sliding doors do not need swing clearance, making them ideal for tight bathrooms. Frameless hinged doors offer the cleanest look, while sliding systems work better for wider openings and tub/shower combinations.
What is the warranty on your shower enclosure installations?
We provide a comprehensive warranty covering both hardware and installation workmanship. Tempered glass carries a manufacturer warranty against spontaneous breakage. Hardware warranties vary by manufacturer but typically cover finish and mechanical function for 5-10 years. Our installation workmanship warranty covers seal integrity, alignment, and mounting for the life of the enclosure.
