FAQs

We provide two primary thickness options for frameless shower door glass: 3/8 inch and 1/2 inch. The choice depends on the shower's dimensions. Wider showers require 1/2 inch glass for adequate support, while narrower ones can use 3/8 inch glass to reduce costs without compromising stability. Generally, glass panes 72 inches or less in width can use 3/8 inch thickness. For more details about our custom glass and mirror options, please contact our local team.

There are pros and cons to each option. Channels hold the glass and have a slight frame defect, but they also have less caulking to clean. Clips show more glass and offer more structural integrity, but they come at a higher cost. According to Absolute Glassworks, well-maintained frameless glass shower doors last 20 to 30 years, whereas framed doors last roughly 15 to 20 years.
