A flawless, new shower door
gives your bathroom a fresh look,
but it is common to wonder about
the safety of installing glass
in one of the slipperiest areas
of your home.
You might also worry about
the safety of these types of doors
if you’ve ever seen other types
of glass shatter, such as a window.
While a new shower door looks
fragile, it should be able to stand up
to years of frequent use.
We ensure your shower’s new
glass door will resist shattering
by knowing how to prevent
breakage at each step of the
installation process.
Expect Safe
and Durable
Materials
Shower doors are much safer today
than they were in the past.
Modern doors must meet federal
safety standards and comply with
local building codes.
Still, it is possible to run into
companies that try to cut corners
by making doors out of less
durable materials.
When you receive our quote
on a shower door installation,
feel free to ask us which brands
of glass our company uses.
Starting out with a door from
a manufacturer that is known
for producing high-quality pieces
will give you confidence that it will
meet safety standards.
Pay Attention
to the Installation
A reputable installer only uses
tempered glass for shower doors,
and their attention to detail goes
even further than picking out
safe materials.
Our experienced installers know
how to use the proper hardware
to put in the door, so that it doesn’t
hit other surfaces in the space,
or drag on the bottom of the shower.
You will also notice that our installers
are careful to hold the glass properly
and protect it from damage by using
strategies such as leaving
on the corner covers.
They’ll also make sure that the hardware
is firmly secured and that any bumpers
are in their proper places to reduce
pressure on the glass.
Check Regularly
for Wear and Tear
Once the door is installed,
our technicians will finish up
by inspecting each critical
component of the door mount.
If any flaws are found, they’ll make
the necessary corrections.
After that, you can do your part
to maintain safety in your
bathroom by checking the door
regularly for any signs of damage
and treating it with care.
Depending upon when the door
was installed, it may still be under
the manufacturer’s warranty
or be covered under our
installation policy.
Experience matters when it comes
to making sure that your shower
door doesn’t break.
We’ve trained our team to use
a multi-point system to ensure every
door is safe, even before we bring
it into your bathroom.
We start by only working
with reputable suppliers.
Then, we check each door
to make sure that it doesn’t have
any blemishes.
As we work, we make sure
the door never touches other
surfaces that could cause breakage,
such as ceramic tile.
After the installation is complete,
we do a final check to make sure
that the door is free of any
imperfections before finally asking
for your approval.
By the time that you enter your shower,
you can be sure that it has passed
through multiple checks so that it is
unlikely to shatter.
