Glass That Fits the Opening—and the Way You Use It
A tall hinged door, a corner enclosure and a tub slider need different clearances and support. Start with the finished opening and nearby fixtures, then select the glass and hardware.
The Encinitas work shown here includes a seven-foot door-and-inline enclosure, half-inch Starphire glass and sliding access above an acrylic tub. The hero installation pairs clear glass with brushed bronze, also described as champagne, hardware.

Featured Encinitas Shower Door Installations
Heavy low-iron glass, sliding tub access and hardware choices installed in local bathrooms.
Half-Inch Starphire Glass Around a Corner
This Encinitas enclosure uses 1/2-inch Starphire low-iron glass in a door-and-panel layout with a 90-degree return. The door weighs 110 pounds, the adjacent panel weighs more than 136 pounds, and the return panel weighs 165 pounds.
The DP90 configuration closes two sides of the shower, with a door that swings inward and outward. Those separate glass weights make panel support and the carrying route important parts of the installation plan.
A Euroglide Above an Acrylic Tub
This Encinitas tub shower uses a Euroglide sliding enclosure. The exposed roller-and-rail system moves the door alongside the glass instead of swinging it into the bathroom.
A tub installation requires attention to the rim and mounting surfaces as well as the usable entry. Rail placement and panel overlap are planned around the measured opening.
CRL Unlacquered Brass on a Hinged Enclosure
This Encinitas door-and-inline installation uses unlacquered-brass hardware by CRL. The fixed panel completes the opening beside the hinged door, while the visible brass hardware gives the enclosure a coordinated finish.
A finish choice still needs to work with the hinge and mounting requirements. Door clearance, handle placement and fixed-panel support are confirmed before fabrication.
Half-Inch Starphire for an ADU Bathroom
The shower in this Encinitas ADU/back house received a 1/2-inch Starphire door-and-inline enclosure. The door weighs 99.5 pounds and the stationary inline panel weighs 103 pounds.
Low-iron glass keeps the view through the enclosure clear with reduced green tint. Even a straightforward two-piece opening requires the glass thickness, hinge support and access route to be considered together.

Choose the entry configuration first, then refine glass clarity and hardware.
Hinged Doors + Inline Glass
A fixed panel fills the opening beside the entry. Local examples include seven-foot-tall glass and half-inch Starphire in an ADU.
Corner & Multi-Panel Enclosures
Return glass closes a second side of the shower. The featured Starphire corner uses three substantial pieces with an in-and-out swinging door.
Euroglide Sliding Doors
Exposed rollers and a rail carry the door alongside the glass. The Encinitas tub installation shows this system above an acrylic rim.
Tub-Shower Glass
The tub rim, wall surfaces and entry width help determine a suitable enclosure. Compare door travel and access before choosing the system.
Low-Iron Glass
Starphire examples show low-iron glass in both straight and corner layouts. Discuss clarity, thickness and the finished panel dimensions.
Coordinated Hardware
Encinitas installations include brushed bronze, polished nickel and CRL unlacquered brass. Confirm available finishes for the selected hardware.
Plan the Opening and the Carrying Route
Send photos of the shower or tub, curb, bench or pony wall and nearby fixtures, along with approximate dimensions. Let us know your preferred door operation, glass appearance and hardware finish.
Final measurements follow completed tile and stone work. For heavy pieces, stairs, narrow halls and tight turns are part of the installation plan.
What Affects Frameless Shower-Door Pricing?
Glass area and height, 3/8- versus 1/2-inch thickness, standard clear versus low-iron or privacy glass, and the number and weight of fixed panels all influence the quote.
Swinging or sliding operation, notches, angles, benches, pony walls, tub decks, headers, clamps and hardware finishes change the scope. EnduroShield, old-enclosure removal and difficult access are additional considerations.

Low-Iron Clarity and Privacy Options
The featured Starphire installations use low-iron glass to reduce green tint. Glass thickness and panel dimensions are specified with the mounting and hinge requirements—not selected by appearance alone.
If privacy matters more than an open view, ask about compatible frosted or textured glass options for your layout.
Finish the Enclosure with the Right Hardware
Brushed bronze, polished nickel and CRL unlacquered brass each appear in the Encinitas installations shown here. The Euroglide adds visible rail and roller hardware to the finish decision.
Confirm finish availability for the chosen system and ask about EnduroShield protective treatment when requesting your quote.
