Every home is unique.
One of the first steps in customizing your glass shower door and enclosure project is selecting the right style. Frameless, semi-frameless and framed are the three main designs to choose from. Frameless showers fully showcase each custom cut panel of glass without obstruction from extra components. A foundation of tile is required for this kind of installation. Fortunately, those with fiberglass bathrooms can create a similarly luxurious and contemporary aesthetic with semi-frameless showers. This style uses low-profile hardware to support its glass panels. If splash is major concern, you may want to consider a framed shower. Glass panels encased in metal framing serves as the most watertight solution.
Choose from Frameless, Semi-Frameless or Framed Designs
Frameless
Frameless glass shower doors provide an open, streamlined look by removing heavy frames and keeping hardware to a minimum. Made with thick, durable glass, these enclosures enhance light flow and emphasize tilework, fixtures and architectural accents. They are a popular choice for modern and transitional bathrooms, delivering a sleek design with long-term strength and stability.
Semi-Frameless
Semi-frameless shower doors balance simplicity with strength. They typically incorporate understated framing to present almost completely unobstructed glass panels. This combination delivers a refined appearance with added stability, making semi-frameless enclosures a practical choice for homeowners looking for style, performance and design flexibility.
Framed
A classic option, framed shower doors use full perimeter framing to support glass panels and create a structured appearance. This design offers watertight performance and works well in many different bathroom layouts. Various finishes and configuration choices are available to fit your space.
Sliders & Barn Doors
Sliding and barn-style shower doors are ideal for bathrooms where saving space is a priority. Because they slide along a track rather than opening outward, they can fit smaller or narrow layouts. With sleek lines and customizable hardware, sliders and barn doors offer a modern look while delivering smooth operation and everyday ease of use.
Steam Showers
Steam shower enclosures are designed to create a sealed space that traps heat and humidity. These systems commonly feature full-height glass panels, secure seals and transoms or headers designed to accommodate steam use. The result is a spa-like shower experience that delivers a high-end look and luxury you can enjoy every day.
Digital Printing on Glass
With digital printing on glass, you can add custom patterns, designs or imagery directly to shower glass. This feature provides privacy and visual appeal while maintaining durability and ease of maintenance. From subtle to bold, digitally printed glass provides a unique way to put a personal touch on your shower enclosure without sacrificing performance.
Black Grid Shower Doors
Black grid shower doors feature clean, divided lines that bring structure and definition to the bathroom. Influenced by industrial and contemporary aesthetics, they offer visual impact without compromising functionality. This design pairs well with many finishes and materials to create an appearance that is both eye-catching and timeless.
Corner Showers
Corner shower enclosures maximize space while maintaining comfort and accessibility. These configurations fit neatly into bathroom corners, making them ideal for smaller bathrooms or tight configurations. With customizable glass panels and door styles, corner showers provide a clean, efficient solution that balances functionality with a polished appearance.
Spray Panels
Spray panels are a minimalist alternative to traditional shower enclosures. These fixed glass panels provide splash protection while maintaining an open, airy feel. This style is perfect for contemporary bathrooms and walk-in showers, delivering simplicity, ease of access and a modern aesthetic with fewer components.

Shower Enclosure Options
Configuration
After you decide on a framing style, you should consider your configuration. Configuration options include traditional swing, swing door with panel and swing door with 90-degree return. Sliders are also available with one fixed panel, two sliding panels or a 90-degree return. You can also opt for more abstract presentations like neo-angle, doorless spray panel enclosures or a custom design based on a sample or your imagination alone.
Shape of your shower matters – choosing your shower enclosure options will depend on your shower layout/shape and other furniture and fixtures in your bathroom. Configurations are typically described as Inline, Return, Neo Angle or Custom.
Hardware
We carry a full spectrum of hardware with finishes to compliment your existing furnishings or create new look altogether. Choose your finish and hardware styles during your design consultation. Whether you want a traditional chrome finish, farmhouse matte black, modern gun metal, upscale polished nickel or classy satin brass, we have a variety of finish options available. Hinges and clips choose between a straight modern edge or beveled edge. Handle and Towel bar options are available in a variety of sizes, finishes and styles to complement your other hardware.
Contact us to schedule a design consultation to review hardware options and finishes available for your enclosure or review product brochures.
Glass Type & Thickness
You can choose your shower glass style for each panel – from standard clear, ultra-clear starphire (aka Low Iron), frosted, tinted, and textured. Glass options are available in a variety of thicknesses as well. Frameless shower enclosures are typically in 3/8” or ½” thickness. Framed and Semi-Frameless are available in lighter glass options like ¼” thickness.
