Custom Shower Installation in Kensington, Maryland (MD)

Everyone should have a passion. As it happens, ours is custom shower doors. Even though we’ve done well over 10,000 custom shower installations over the life of the company, each installation is unique unto itself. We live and breathe shower doors, agonizing over the smallest details, so you don’t have to.

While it’s not uncommon for us to do four installations in a single day, homeowners typically care about only one: theirs. Our mission is to ensure Kensington homeowners the smoothest experience possible for what should be a once-in-a-generation project. A high quality custom shower installation done right the first time should be viable for decades. Unfortunately, too many homeowners fall prey to the siren song of cheap installation and even cheaper products. Remember: you’re not remodeling because you particularly like spending money or dealing with contractors. You’re doing it as a financial and quality-of-life investment for your Kensington home. Save yourself the hassle and drama of doing the same project multiple times by going with the Shower Door Experts.


Frameless Glass Shower Doors in Kensington, Maryland (MD)

Frameless shower enclosures use either 3/8” or 1/2” tempered glass and either brass plated or anodized aluminum hardware. Within the shower industry, “frameless” refers to any shower enclosure that doesn’t have metal adhered to the edge of the glass. Some people think frameless means no metal whatsoever. This is not the case. Frameless units can be virtually metal-free, except for clips on any stationary panels, hinges, and handle. But frameless also covers units that may have a header atop the unit and u-channel on the stationary panels. If your looking for a frameless glass shower door in Kensington, Maryland (MD), you've come to the right place. Fortunately, we offer both kinds with a range of options in between to suit your layout and budget.


Semi-Frameless Shower Doors in Kensington, Maryland (MD)

Semi-frameless shower enclosures typically use 1/4” tempered glass and anodized aluminum hardware. A custom shower deemed “semi-frameless” has a header atop the unit, and any stationary glass is fully framed with slim profile channel. The door itself, however, does not have framing around it, hence the term “semi-frameless.” In Kensington and surrounding areas, we source many of our semi-frameless shower systems from the Century Bathworks Centec line, Cardinal Showers, and Easco.


Framed Shower Doors in Kensington, Maryland (MD)

Framed shower enclosures are the most cost effective because they typically use 3/16” tempered or laminated glass with fairly substantial anodized aluminum hardware. Although these units aren’t as flashy as fully frameless enclosures, they certainly aren’t eyesores. Also, our custom framed shower enclosures are much higher quality than what you’d find in big box home improvement stores. Pre-fabbed, one-size-fits-all shower packages from the likes of Home Depot and Lowe’s generally disappoint due to mill marks on the metal and inadequate adjustability for certain out of plumb or level conditions. If you’re thinking about going with a framed shower enclosure for your Kensington home, give us a call. We’ll make your $500 custom shower look like a million bucks!


Sliding Shower Doors in Kensington, Maryland (MD)

Sliding shower enclosures can be framed or frameless. The frameless sliding bypass systems do have wall jambs, a drip track, and a header for the rollers to slide in, but the individuals panels are not framed themselves, hence their “frameless” designation. Framed sliders have the same outer components, but each panel is individually framed and the glass is thinner. Also popular in Kensington, is our new modern sliding system called the Hydroslide. It uses 3/8” tempered glass, and only one of the panels slides. The other panel is stationary. The hardware it uses is highly adjustable and has a very sleek look.
