Frameless Shower Door Pricing.

Every shower opening is different, but understanding the price shouldn't be difficult. Explore common layouts, compare available options and see an estimated installed price before scheduling an appointment.

What Affects the Price?

Your final price depends on the configuration, opening dimensions, glass selection, hardware and installation conditions. Professional field measurement confirms the details before your glass is fabricated.

A single door, door-and-panel combination and multi-panel enclosure have different material and installation requirements. Thickness, glass type, treatments, hinges, handles, clamps and finish selections can also affect the final price.

Wall conditions, support requirements, access and other project-specific considerations are reviewed during the final measurement process. Nothing on this page requires an email address.

// Showers

Frameless shower enclosures

Installed, including measure, hardware, and silicone. Removal of the old enclosure is a priced add on.

// Mirrors

Custom cut mirrors

Lit mirrors assume an existing junction box at the location. New electrical is not included.

// Partitions

Interior glass partitions

Estimates. A site measure of floor level, ceiling height, and wall plumb comes before a firm price.

// Railings

Glass railings, per linear foot

Per linear foot installed, before permit fees. Engineering is included, jurisdiction fees are not.

// Wine rooms

Glass wine room enclosures

Quoted after a site visit. Refrigeration, insulation, and racking belong to other trades.

// Cost drivers

What actually moves a price

In the order it moves it. If you want to spend less, these are the levers, and two of them are usually worth pulling.

Layout complexity

A single swing door is the baseline, and a door with a panel prices the same way. Beyond that the layout carries a flat charge for the hardware and the install time it adds, not a percentage of the glass. A bypass slider carries the largest one, because the rollers, the header, and the alignment leave no room for error. A 90 degree return or a neo angle carry smaller ones.

Glass thickness

Most frameless work is 3/8 in. Half inch costs roughly 30 percent more per square foot, weighs about a third more, and needs heavier hinges and blocking in the wall. It is the right call on tall panels, wide doors, and anything over about 84 in, and it is money wasted on a small door that was already rigid.

Low iron glass

Standard clear glass has iron in it, which reads as a green tint on the polished edge and a slight cast across large panels. Low iron removes most of it for about 20 percent more. On a 30 in door most people never notice. On a 72 in wall of glass next to white marble, it is the difference between clean and faintly aquarium.

Protective coating

A flat $200 per enclosure for EnduroShield, factory-applied. It is a sacrificial layer that makes the glass easier to keep clean for a handful of years. It is not permanent and we will not pretend it is.

Hardware finish and metallurgy

Chrome is the baseline. Brushed nickel, matte black, and brass add $100 to $300 per enclosure, and the gap is about coating process, not color. In coastal humidity, that process is what determines whether the finish still looks right in year seven.

Site conditions

Out of plumb walls, tile that cannot be drilled without a diamond bit and a steady hand, third floor carries with no elevator, and HOA access windows all add labor. This is the category most likely to change your number at measure, and the only one we cannot see from a photo.

// Scope

Included, and not included

In every installed price

  • Tempered safety glass, SGCC certified, permanently etched with the fabricator mark
  • All hinges, clamps, handles, channel, and seals in the finish you chose
  • Free on site laser measure by the person responsible for the numbers
  • Dump fees and disposal whenever you add removal of the existing enclosure
  • Install by our own crew, never a day labor subcontractor
  • Silicone, shimming, and blocking as required by the opening
  • Registration in the Shield7 Warranty Registry with your exact specification
  • Shield7 workmanship, glass, and hardware coverage as detailed in the warranty terms

Never included

  • Tile, stone, or drywall repair, including damage found behind an old frame
  • Curb rebuilds, pan replacement, or correcting a shower floor that does not drain
  • Plumbing, electrical, or moving a shower head or valve
  • Permit fees where a railing or structural change requires one
  • Third party engineering letters for code review on railings
  • Wall reframing when a heavy panel lands on studs that cannot carry it

// After the measure

The five things that change a number

This list is why the online price is a range and the post measure price is a commitment.

  • Openings out of plumb past about 1/2 in usually need a wider channel or a tapered panel
  • Wall construction that cannot hold hinge loads needs blocking, which is added labor
  • A curb slope that pushes water out instead of in changes the door swing or the sill detail
  • A height that seemed like 76 in on the phone and measures 82 in at the wall changes the glass cost
  • Existing tile that is already cracked at the anchor points, which we photograph before we touch it

About pricing

Because the alternative wastes everyone time. You spend two weeks collecting three quotes to learn a range you could have read in a minute, and we spend that time driving to appointments for projects that were never in budget. Publishing the range filters both directions.
