    Walk-in curbless shower frameless glass enclosure

    Frameless vs. Semi-Frameless vs. Framed — Which Is Right for a Bay City Bathroom?

    • Frameless — The modern showstopper. Heavy tempered glass with no metal frame, held by minimal hinges and clips. Uses thicker 3/8” to 1/2” glass.
    • Semi-Frameless — Frameless look on the sides and door, with a slim metal frame only where the glass meets the wall and curb. Slightly more budget-friendly.
    • Framed — Aluminum frame around every edge. Most affordable, very durable, and perfect for rental units, kids’ bathrooms, and high-traffic homes.

    What Glass Options Do You Offer in Bay City?

    • Clear Glass — The timeless choice. Makes bathrooms feel open and lets your tile work show through.
    • Low-Iron Glass — Extra clear, no green tint. The difference is subtle but real — colors look truer.
    • Frosted Glass — Full privacy with a soft, modern look. Lets light through, hides the bather.
    • Rain Glass — A textured pattern that distorts just enough for privacy while adding visual interest. A favorite for contemporary Bay City remodels.
    • Tinted Glass — Gray or bronze for a dramatic look that also adds a touch of privacy.

    How Does the Custom Enclosure Process Work?

    • 1. Measure — We come to your home and take precise measurements, accounting for walls that aren’t perfectly plumb.

    • 3. Fabricate — Your glass is cut, tempered, and polished to spec. Tempering is mandatory for shower glass.
    • 4. Install — Our techs set the glass, level everything, seal the edges, and leave your bathroom spotless.

    Call 989-894-0641.

    What Glass Thickness Should My Shower Use?

    Thickness isn’t just about looks — it’s about strength and safety:

    3/8 inch — The standard for most frameless and semi-frameless showers. Strong, stable, and slightly lighter than thicker glass.

    1/2 inch — Heavier, more substantial, and ideal for larger frameless panels and doors. Feels rock-solid and reduces flex.

    3/16 to 1/4 inch — Used only for framed showers, where the aluminum frame provides the support.

    Frameless showers need thicker glass because the glass itself carries the load. We’ll recommend the right thickness for your opening size and door configuration.

    Shower Enclosure FAQs

    It depends on glass type, size, and hardware. Framed is most affordable, semi-frameless is mid-range, and frameless with low-iron glass is the premium option. We give an exact quote after measuring. Call 989-894-0641 for a free estimate.

    From measurement to install, most enclosures take 1-2 weeks. Tempering the glass takes a few days since it is done off-site. We will give you a firm timeline when you order.

    Yes, by building code. Tempered glass is heat-treated safety glass that breaks into small rounded pieces instead of sharp shards. Every shower enclosure we install uses tempered glass.
