We installed this custom angled shower door in Woodbine, MD last week, and we’re very pleased with the outcome! It was a difficult layout and measurement since the top of the shower enclosure had to be parallel with the angled ceiling. Another difficult aspect was the hinge location. You can see that we used a glass-to-glass hinge at the top and a glass-to-wall hinge at the bottom, which requires very precise adjustment and installation.
Our entire team did a great job though, and it really couldn’t have turned out better. With a job like this, things can go wrong at any number of stages. If the measurement isn’t perfect? The angle of the glass will not be perfectly parallel to the angle of the ceiling. If the fabrication isn’t perfect? The same problem can occur, or the gap between the shower door and the glass panels may be too wide, or the radius edge on the top right corner of the stationary panel won’t look right. Our fabricators did a phenomenal job on this one though.
The same goes for the shower door installation as well. If the installation isn’t perfect? None of the other steps matter, because the unit won’t look or operate as it should. Our installers took their time and made sure the installation was perfect, however, and it really shows. The homeowners have a custom shower enclosure tailored perfectly to their custom bathroom, and it should be a real conversation piece for many years to come. We always feel fortunate to be involved with “statement” shower enclosures like these.
We also feel fortunate to live and work in this area, because there are few drives as picturesque as those through Howard County and Carroll County. We do plenty of shower doors in Baltimore and Washington, DC—and there’s plenty to be inspired by on those commutes as well—but it’s hard to beat the greenery and rolling hills out by Woodbine and Westminster. It’s worth taking an aimless drive out that way if you’re looking for some peaceful and inspiring views. And you can always swing by our shower door showroom in Jefferson, MD—near Frederick—if you do!
