Framed Mirrors
Mirrors can make a significant impact on the impression of space within a bathroom. Some homeowners opt for flat mirrors with either beveled or polished edges, mounted with translucent plastic pieces or mastic. In conjunction with Cardinal Shower, we are pleased to announce our introduction of framed mirrors to expand upon these options. Framed mirrors can be a great choice for several reasons. First, they can actually be less expensive than flat mirrors due to the availability of stock sizes as well as the ease of installation. Instead of plastic pieces or mastic, our framed mirrors mount with a j-bar, which makes them more sturdy than mirrors mounted with mastic. Second, they can better complement bathroom fixtures and frameless shower hardware. Since the framing is available in finishes that complement bathroom fixtures (i.e., chrome, brass, brushed nickel, polished nickel, oil rubbed bronze, roman bronze, etc.), they can more effectively complement and tie together other bathroom components. We even offer some novel hardware finishes, like satin chrome, marble, and white. Third, since our framed mirrors are available in three framing profiles, different styles of decor can be taken into account. If your decor is more modern and minimalist, the flat CMF69 frame may be most appropriate. If your decor is more traditional, the fluted CMFM1 profile may be a better fit. The point is that the frame, via its shape and hardware finish, can make a statement in and of itself.
What we like most about the framed mirrors is that they give us the opportunity to offer our customers a unique package of mirrors and shower doors. However, plenty of customers opt to just purchase framed mirrors from us, largely due to the ease of installation. Each unit comes with four corner brackets, a hanging rail with screws and anchors, glass blocks, and eight retainer blocks. We recommend that you secure the hanging rail directly to studs for the most secure installation. The anchors are used when you cannot hit a stud.
Our framed mirrors are available in custom sizes, as well as the following stock sizes:
- 18” x 24” Framed Mirror
- 24” x 24” Framed Mirror
- 24” x 30” Framed Mirror
- 30” x 30” Framed Mirror
- 30” x 36” Framed Mirror
- 36” x 36” Framed Mirror
We have various sizes and all three frame profiles on display at our shower door showroom in Jefferson, MD, and we have a dedicated Framed Mirrors product page on our website.

New Patterned, Textured Glass From Cardinal Shower
Cardinal Shower has outdone themselves with a new batch of patterned shower glass. Shortages of even the most basic and popular patterned glasses have been plaguing the industry for the past two years. Flat glass companies like AGC Glass have been moving away from textured glass production, opting to produce solar panels instead. Who knew that the foremost environmental question of our time would be a choice between clean energy and attractive showers? Doesn’t seem fair…
Perhaps it’s for the best though. Since Cardinal manufactures shower enclosures, the company has a firm grasp on what its customers are looking for when it comes to custom glass. AGC Glass is a conglomerate, so its product development and production were based more on profitability than an understanding of the custom shower niche. And that niche is ever-changing and dynamic, so it makes the most sense for a shower enclosure company to vertically integrate patterned glass production into its operations. Cardinal will be able to more quickly and fully respond to customer preferences and industry trends than a large and cumbersome conglomerate would.
Cardinal’s first batch of in-house patterned glasses are intriguing to say the least. Capitalizing on its innovative work with cast glass, the company has released the following six patterns (shown above):
- Cardinal Affinity
- Cardinal Flurry
- Cardinal Lunar
- Cardinal Rain
- Cardinal Tranquility
- Cardinal Wisp
Not only are the patterns extremely distinctive, but the glass itself is super clear low-iron glass. Low-iron (or Starfire) glass as a trend is red hot right now because it doesn’t have the faint green hue that traditional clear tempered glass has. More and more homeowners are opting for low-iron glass to shed the best light (both literally and figuratively) on custom tile and stone work. Cardinal’s decision to produce their in-house patterns with low-iron glass is a stroke of genius in our opinion. And since the patterns themselves are so attractive and creative, we see big things ahead for the product line!

Frameless Shower Door Repairs in MD, DC, and VA
Repairs can be tough because a lot of times the time and labor involved end up being much more than the actual cost of the part(s) needed. Or a shower enclosure that isn’t worth very much to begin with (i.e., old framed builder’s grade shower units) may need a level of repairs equal to half the unit’s value or more. We try and use common sense when diagnosing issues and recommending shower repairs, and if it makes more sense to replace a shower enclosure, we’re not afraid of making that recommendation. What we absolutely don’t want to happen is to get paid for a shower repair, only to have to make multiple trips out to re-service the same issue. That benefits no one!
Thankfully, this typically doesn’t happen, as we’re usually able to confirm our over-the-phone diagnosis and make any necessary shower repairs onsite. The over-the-phone diagnosis is where our office staff tries to pin down exactly what the issue is. We then email a Service Call Agreement, outlining the minimum charges due and what will be addressed. We went to this system to ensure that everyone would be on the same page regarding cost and scope of the shower repair work. It’s been working out well!
In Maryland (MD), Virginia (VA), and Washington, DC, the vast majority of repairs end up costing the client less than $150. This includes work like shower hinge adjustments, replacing shower sweeps and polycarbonate vinyls (gaskets), shower leak diagnostics and repair, re-siliconing or re-caulking, and other repairs. So if you’re having issues with your shower enclosure, drop us a line a tell us a bit about the issues you’re having. It never hurts to run it up the flagpole, right? More than likely we’ll be able to get your shower enclosure looking and working properly, and at a minimum cost!
