Before You Buy Frameless Glass Shower Doors: Chicago Homeowners' Top Questions
When people ask us about frameless glass shower doors, Chicago condo owners and suburban homeowners alike tend to raise the same handful of worries. Here are straight answers, followed by a closer look at every glass type we offer.
Safe frameless glass for a busy family bathroom
With no frame, it is natural to wonder whether bare glass is safe around kids and wet floors. Our frameless doors use thick tempered safety glass, far tougher than the glass in a window or picture frame.
Just as important is how the door is hung. Heavy glass needs solid anchoring and hinges set so the weight is carried evenly. Our team measures onsite and handles the installation, so the frameless glass shower doors Chicago families use every day swing smoothly and stay in line.
Glass that stays clear without hours of scrubbing
Water spots and soap film are what most people dread about glass showers, and the frameless glass shower doors Chicago households choose are no exception. Tap water here is drawn from Lake Michigan, and like any tap water it leaves faint mineral spots as it dries. A frameless door has no metal tracks or frame channels where that grime can hide, and a quick squeegee after each shower does most of the work.
For extra help, Shower Guard glass has a coating fused on during manufacturing that resists the stains that slowly dull ordinary glass.
Frameless, framed or sliding: finding the right door for your shower
Framed doors hold thinner glass in a metal frame and can suit a tighter budget. Sliding doors save space where a swinging door would hit a vanity or toilet. We make all three, so our advice is about your bathroom, not about pushing one product.
At your free onsite estimate we show you real glass options, which one customer said made the decision easy. If your opening is an unusual size or shape, our custom shower doors are built to fit it.
Frameless glass shower doors Chicago homeowners can budget for
The price of a frameless door depends on its size, the glass you pick and the hardware it needs, so a number quoted over the phone is rarely the number you pay. That is why our estimates are free and done in your bathroom. We measure, talk through your options and give you a price for your exact opening.
If a full enclosure stretches your budget, we can show you affordable choices alongside premium ones.
A closer look at every glass type
Here is how each glass we offer looks and behaves. For frameless glass shower doors, Chicago homes vary a lot in light and privacy needs, so match the glass to your window, your tile and who shares the bathroom.
Clear Glass
Clear glass is the most popular choice and suits almost any bathroom, letting your tile and fixtures take center stage. Its edge shows a faint green tint from the iron found naturally in glass.
Frosted Glass
Frosted glass has a translucent, satin finish that lets light in while blurring what is behind it. It suits a shared bathroom or a shower facing the door, and it hides water spots better than clear glass.
Tempered Glass
Tempered glass is heat-treated safety glass, several times stronger than ordinary glass of the same thickness. If it ever breaks, it crumbles into small, dull-edged pieces instead of sharp shards. All cutting and drilling happens before tempering, which is why the frameless glass shower doors Chicago clients order from us are made to measure.
Tinted Glass
Tinted glass carries a light color through the whole pane, most often gray or bronze. It softens glare, adds some privacy and pairs well with dark tile or bronze and black fixtures.
Starphire Glass
Starphire is an ultra-clear, low-iron glass made by Vitro Architectural Glass. With most of the iron removed, it loses the green cast of standard glass and shows a light blue edge instead. Bright white marble and colored tile look true behind it.
Low-Iron Glass
Low-iron glass is made with far less iron than standard clear glass. Iron is what gives ordinary glass its greenish edge, so lowering it gives you a cleaner, more colorless view. It makes the most difference on the thick panels in frameless glass shower doors Chicago homeowners pair with white marble or bright tile.
Rain Glass
Rain glass has a texture pressed into its surface that looks like water streaming down a window. It adds character and privacy, and it disguises the occasional drip between cleanings.
Colored Glass
Colored glass gives your shower an accent shade that ties in with your paint, tile or towels. It is bolder than tinted glass, so it helps to see options in your own bathroom light during your estimate.
Shower Guard
Shower Guard glass has a protective coating fused to its surface when the glass is made. The coating fills in the tiny pits found in ordinary glass, so minerals and soap have less to cling to. It is part of the glass itself, not a spray applied later.
