Framed Shower Enclosures

A metal frame gives the shower a defined outline and makes the proportions of the glass part of the room’s design. We develop the frame, door and adjoining panels around the opening, with attention to the visible edges and hardware.

Profiles and proportions

The width of the metal profiles, the placement of glass divisions and the door size establish the character of the enclosure. A simple perimeter frame creates a different effect from a divided design. We work through these details with the client or designer before fabrication.

Materials and concealed details

Our portfolio includes custom solid brass work and polished nickel finishes. Selected designs incorporate concealed hinge details, magnetic closures or an operable transom. Frame material, finish and glass are specified together; the available details depend on the chosen construction.
