Customizing Your Bathroom Shower Doors
Whether you prefer sliding shower doors or a shower door that swings open, customizing your shower with different glass options allows you to balance style, privacy, and light. From transparent to decorative glass, these choices can enhance your bathroom’s design and function.
Transparent Glass
Transparent glass creates an open, spacious look, ideal for showcasing tile work and maximizing light. It’s a low-maintenance option perfect for modern, minimalist bathrooms.
Frosted Glass
Frosted glass offers privacy while still allowing light to pass through. Its soft, diffused appearance adds elegance and is great for shared spaces.
Hammered Glass
Hammered glass features a textured surface that adds character and privacy. Its rippled design suits both traditional and rustic-style bathrooms.
Rain Glass
Rain glass mimics the look of water droplets, adding texture and privacy. It offers a calming, natural aesthetic without darkening the room.
Patterned Glass
Patterned glass allows for unique, custom designs, making it a focal point in your bathroom while offering privacy and a unique style.
Glass with Color and Tint Options
Tinted glass brings personality to your shower doors, whether with subtle tones or bold hues, enhancing your bathroom’s overall design.
Perks of Modern Glass Showers
Shower enclosures made of glass are a stylish and functional upgrade for any bathroom. They create a modern, open feel, maximize natural light, and can make even smaller spaces feel larger. With various customization options available, a custom glass shower provides both aesthetic appeal and practical benefits, enhancing the overall value and experience of your bathroom.
If you plan on selling your home in the future, bear in mind the resale value or return on investment you’ll get. 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.
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.
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.
Glass showers offer endless possibilities in terms of size, shape, and style. Whether you want to make the most of an awkward bathroom layout or create a unique shower space, custom glass panels can be tailored to fit your vision. From sleek corner shower options to expansive designs with multiple walls, our team can help you transform any space into a functional and elegant shower enclosure that suits your style and needs.

Are glass shower doors durable?
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.
What type of glass is used for glass shower doors?
Tempered glass is commonly used for shower doors due to its strength and safety features. It’s treated to be more impact-resistant and shatterproof compared to regular glass.
What is the privacy level of custom glass shower doors for bathrooms?
The privacy level depends on the type of glass chosen. Options like frosted, patterned, or tinted glass provide more privacy, while clear glass offers a fully transparent look.
