Can I get a glass enclosure without a door for a walk-in shower?

Yes. Walk-in curbless showers often use a single fixed glass panel with no door — the shower is oversized enough that water stays in without an enclosure. We handle these regularly for master bathrooms and curbless designs.

How long does it take to install a custom glass shower enclosure?

After the tile is complete and cured, the glass fabricator measures the opening (usually 3-7 days). Custom glass is manufactured (10-14 days), then installed in a single day. Total timeline from tile-done to glass-installed is typically 2-3 weeks.

Every Style, Every Layout

Frameless glass shower enclosure with matte black hardware by Level Up Tile in Peoria AZ

Most Premium

Frameless Enclosures →

Thick 3/8" or 1/2" tempered glass with only hinges, clips, and a handle. The cleanest, most modern look. Best for high-end master baths and photo-ready spaces.

Best Value

Semi-Frameless →

Metal frame around the fixed panels with a frameless door. Cleaner than fully-framed but less than full frameless. Great middle-ground option.

Framed glass shower enclosure with metal trim by Level Up Tile in Peoria AZ

Traditional

Framed Enclosures →

Full metal frame around every glass panel. Most affordable option, most sealed against leaks, and a good fit for traditional bathroom styles.

Sliding rail-style glass shower door with brushed gold hardware by Level Up Tile

Space-Saving

Sliding Barn-Door / Rail Style →

Glass slides on an exposed rail — perfect when the door can't swing out into the bathroom. Not to be confused with a Serenity-style bypass door, which hides the track. This style makes the rail part of the design.

Curbless

Walk-In / Fixed Panel →

A single fixed glass panel with no door — used for oversized curbless showers where water stays inside naturally. The most modern, minimal look available.

Corner Fit

Neo-Angle Corner →

Five-sided glass enclosure that fits into a corner. Maximizes floor space in tight bathrooms while still giving the frameless look.

Steam shower enclosure with full ceiling glass by Level Up Tile

Spa Feature

Steam Enclosures →

Fully sealed ceiling and door for steam-shower functionality. Requires special gaskets, transom vents, and steam-rated hardware. We coordinate with the steam-generator install.

Glass divider panel between tub and shower with brushed gold trim by Level Up Tile

Tub Combo

Tub / Shower Combo →

Sliding bypass doors or a fixed panel for tub-shower combinations. Available in framed, semi-frameless, and frameless configurations.

Glass Options

Choose Your Glass Type

The look, privacy, and feel of your shower depend on the glass itself, not just the hardware.

CLEAR

Clear Glass

Standard tempered — what most homes have. Can show a slight green tint at the edges, especially against white or light tile.

LOW-IRON

Low-Iron (Ultra-Clear)

Also called Starphire. Removes the green tint entirely. This is the upgrade to ask for if you want true clear glass.

FROSTED

Frosted / Privacy

Etched or acid-frosted surface. Softens the view for privacy.

RAIN

Rain Pattern

Vertical rippled texture. Adds privacy while still passing light through.

TEXTURED

Textured / Patterned

Reeded, fluted, or custom patterns for a designer touch.

Glass Thickness Options

3/8" vs 1/2" Tempered Glass

3/8"

Standard Frameless

Industry standard for frameless enclosures. Rigid, strong, cost-effective.

1/2"

Premium Frameless

Heavier, more solid feel. Required for oversized panels and specialty configurations.

Hardware Finishes

Match Your Faucets, Plumbing, and Cabinet Pulls

Hinges, handles, brackets, clips, and sliding rails come in every major finish.

Chrome

Polished silver — the most common bathroom finish.

Brushed Nickel

Softer, satin-finish silver. Doesn't show water spots.

Polished Nickel

Warmer than chrome, still a bright metal look.

Matte Black

Modern, bold, and dramatic. Pairs with warm woods and stone.

Brushed Gold

Warm satin gold. The current design-favorite finish.

Champagne Bronze

Muted warm bronze. Softer than gold, warmer than nickel.

Polished Brass

High-shine yellow-gold. Traditional and luxurious.

Oil-Rubbed Bronze

Deep dark brown-black. Rustic, transitional, or old-world designs.

Frequently Asked

Glass Enclosure Questions

What's the difference between frameless, semi-frameless, and framed?

Frameless uses thick tempered glass (3/8" or 1/2") with only clips, hinges, and a handle — no visible metal frame. Semi-frameless keeps a metal frame around the fixed panels but uses frameless doors, splitting the cost. Framed enclosures have full metal frames around every panel — the most affordable and most watertight, but the least modern look.

Can I get a glass enclosure without a door?

Yes. Walk-in curbless showers often use a single fixed glass panel with no door — the shower is designed oversized enough that water stays inside naturally. It's the most modern, minimal look available and works especially well for master bathrooms.

What hardware finishes are available?

Chrome, brushed nickel, polished nickel, matte black, brushed gold, champagne bronze, polished brass, and oil-rubbed bronze are all standard. We match your enclosure hardware to your existing plumbing fixtures — showerhead, valves, and vanity faucet — so the whole bathroom reads cohesive.

How long does it take to install a custom glass enclosure?

After tile is complete and cured (usually a full week after installation), the glass fabricator comes out to measure. Custom glass takes 10-14 days to manufacture, then installs in a single day. Total: 2-3 weeks from tile-done to glass-installed.

What glass thickness should I choose?

3/8" is the industry standard and what we recommend for nearly every enclosure — plenty rigid, cost-effective, and reliable. 1/2" is used for oversized panels (over 60" wide) or when you want a heavier, more solid feel.

Is low-iron (ultra-clear) glass worth the upgrade?

If your tile is white, cream, or light natural stone — yes. Standard clear glass has a slight green tint visible at the edges that can slightly discolor light tile behind it. Low-iron (also called Starphire) eliminates the tint completely. It's typically a 15-20% upgrade over standard clear.

Can you install steam-shower enclosures?

Yes. Steam enclosures require full ceiling seals, specialized gaskets, transom vents for pressure release, and steam-rated hardware. We coordinate with your plumber for the steam-generator install and design the enclosure specifically for steam functionality.
