Custom glass for homes and businesses around Portland and Vancouver.

Frameless showers, mirrors, interior glass, railings, windows, doors and storefronts, measured on site and made to fit your space.

About us

We've been measuring and installing shower glass, mirrors, railings and storefront glass for more than ten years.

In homes, that usually means a new frameless shower during a bathroom remodel, a large mirror for a powder room, a glass railing for a deck with a view. We also do glass for shops, offices and restaurants.

What we do

Here is what we install and what each kind of job usually involves. If you have something that isn't listed, send us a photo and ask.

01

Shower glass

Frameless shower doors, fixed panels, walk-in screens and tub enclosures. Frameless glass has no metal frame around the edges, so the shower looks open and the tile stays in view.

  • Hinged doors with an inline or return panel
  • Single fixed panels for walk-in showers
  • Corner and neo-angle enclosures
  • Tub screens and tub enclosures
  • Replacing old framed doors with frameless glass

Tile should be finished before we measure, because the glass is cut to the final walls and curb.

02

Mirrors and interior glass

Custom mirrors cut to size, and glass walls inside the house or office. Interior glass walls separate a room without blocking the light.

  • Bathroom and vanity mirrors
  • Full walls of mirror for gyms and dressing rooms
  • Glass partitions and office fronts
  • Wine room walls and doors
  • Glass for cabinet doors and shelving

03

Railings, windows and doors

Glass railings for decks, stairs and balconies, inside and outside. A glass railing keeps the view open from a deck and makes a staircase feel lighter than a solid wall or balusters.

We also replace glass in windows and doors.

Storefronts and commercial

Storefront and commercial glass for shops, offices, restaurants and other businesses. We'll plan the install with you so it gets in the way of your business as little as possible.

  • Storefront windows and entry doors
  • Replacement of broken or damaged glass
  • Office partitions and conference rooms
  • Mirrors for gyms, salons and restrooms

Choosing hardware and glass

Hardware and finishes

On a frameless shower, the hinges, clamps and handle are the only metal you see. We help you choose hardware that is rated for the weight of the glass and matches the faucets and fixtures in the room.

If you are replacing a door and want to keep the rest of the bathroom as it is, we can look for hardware that matches what you already have.

Hardware

  • Wall-mount and glass-to-glass hinges
  • Clamps for fixed panels
  • Support bars and header rails
  • Pulls, knobs and towel bars
  • Seals and sweeps to keep water in

Common finishes

  • Polished chrome
  • Brushed nickel
  • Matte black
  • Brushed or satin brass
  • Oil-rubbed bronze

Left: standard clear. Right: low-iron.

Glass options

Standard clear glass has a slight green tint that shows on the edges and in thick panels. Low-iron glass is clearer and looks closer to white, which many people prefer with light tile or marble.

Glass
Standard clear, or low-iron for less green tint.
Privacy
Frosted or patterned glass where you want light but not a clear view.
Thickness
Chosen for the size and use of each piece. We'll recommend what fits your space.
Safety
Showers, doors and railings use safety glass that meets code for where it's installed.

Working with us

How it works

Here is how a typical job goes, from the first visit to installation.

A tape measure, spirit level, glass suction lifter, pencil and a small offcut of clear glass on an oak bench.

For builders and designers

We work with general contractors, remodelers, interior designers and architects as well as homeowners. We can measure on site at the right stage of a remodel, work from your drawings and selections, and fit our install into your schedule.

  1. 1

    Measure

    After you call or send a request, we set up a time to come out, look at the space and take measurements.

  2. 2

    Quote

    We send you a written quote that lists the glass, hardware and finish. Nothing is ordered until you approve it.

  3. 3

    Order

    Your glass is made to the measurements we took. We order it and let you know when it will be ready so you can plan around the install.

  4. 4

    Install

    We install the glass and check that doors swing and seal properly.

Questions

Common questions

If your question isn't here, call or email us. We're happy to answer it.

Do you remove the old shower door?

Usually, yes. If you're replacing an existing door or enclosure, ask us about taking out the old one and we'll note it in the quote.

Do you do repairs, or only new glass?

We replace broken or cracked glass. Send us a photo and we'll tell you what we can do.

Can you match my existing hardware?

Often. Bring it up when we measure and we'll show you what's available that will look right next to it.

When do you measure during a remodel?

For a shower, we measure after the tile and curb are finished, because the glass is cut to the final surfaces. For railings and partitions, we'll talk with you or your contractor about the right point in the schedule.

How do I keep the glass clean?

Squeegee the shower glass after each use and wipe it down with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid scouring pads and harsh chemicals, which can scratch the glass or damage the hardware finish.

Do you work with contractors and designers?

Yes. We can work from drawings and coordinate the measure and install with the rest of the trades on the job.

How do I get a quote?

Call, email or use the form below. Tell us what you're thinking about and which city the project is in, and send photos if you have them. We'll follow up to set a time to come out and measure, then send you a written quote.
