Custom Glass Shower Doors in Detroit, MI

Howie Glass builds custom glass shower doors in Detroit for homeowners who want one shop to measure, make and hang the glass. We've worked out of Royal Oak since 1912, a straight run up Woodward from the city, and the fourth generation of the family still runs it.

Shower Doors Built for Detroit's Older Bathrooms

A lot of Detroit bathrooms went in a hundred years ago. Indian Village, Boston-Edison, Palmer Woods. Plaster walls settle, tile gets redone over tile, and nothing stays plumb. A stock door from a big box store won't sit right in an opening like that.

That's why custom glass shower doors in Detroit start with a tape measure, not a catalog. We measure your opening, then build the glass to fit it.

Framed, Frameless and Euro-Style Glass in Detroit

We build custom glass shower doors in Detroit in three main styles. Some Detroit homeowners want a clean slab of clear glass. Others like a framed door that suits an older house. We do both, plus Euro-style doors that mount to the wall, run floor to ceiling, or hang from a header. You can see all of our shower door styles and configurations before we come out.

Shower Door Installation Just Past 8 Mile

Detroit ends at 8 Mile. Ferndale and Hazel Park start on the other side, and our shop on Campbell Road in Royal Oak sits only a few miles past that line. So when you search for shower door installation near me from a northwest Detroit or Palmer Park address, you're closer to us than you might guess.

Downtown, Midtown and Corktown are a longer trip down Woodward or I-75, but we take those jobs too.

High-End Hardware on Detroit Shower Doors

Hinges, clamps and handles take the wear on a shower door. We use high-end hardware because cheap hinges are usually the first thing to sag. Pick a finish that matches your faucet: chrome, brushed nickel, matte black. Then we set the door so it swings and closes clean.

Tempered Safety Glass in Every Detroit Enclosure

Shower glass has to be safety glass. It's wet, it gets bumped, and people stand close to it. Every enclosure we hang uses tempered safety glass, cut and finished before it's tempered, since you can't cut it after.

We Supply Every Detroit Shower Door We Install

One thing to know before you call. We install new shower doors that we supply. We don't hang or repair a door you bought somewhere else. Supplying the glass and hardware ourselves is how we stand behind the finished job on custom glass shower doors in Detroit.

One to Two Weeks From Measure to Install in Detroit

Most jobs run one to two weeks from order to completion. We come to your Detroit home to measure, order the glass cut to those numbers, and come back to install. No guessing from photos.

Planning a bigger project? Read how we handle West Bloomfield bathroom remodels, where the glass usually goes in after the tile crew finishes.

Matching Mirrors for Detroit Bathroom Remodels

If the shower is getting new glass, the vanity mirror often looks tired next to it. We cut a custom mirror to fit your wall, which matters in old Detroit bathrooms where the space between the window trim and the light fixture is never a standard size.

Shower Doors North of Detroit, From Ferndale to Southfield

Detroit is our biggest neighbor. Right across 8 Mile we also cover Ferndale, Hazel Park, Pleasant Ridge and Southfield, plus Royal Oak, where the shop is. Typing shower door installation near me anywhere along that stretch will usually turn us up.

Further north, we build plenty of shower doors for Birmingham homes too.

Detroit Shower Door Questions

Do you install custom glass shower doors in Detroit?

Yes. We drive down from our Royal Oak shop to measure your Detroit bathroom, have the glass built to fit, and come back to install it.

Will you install a shower door I already bought?

No. We install new shower doors that we supply, and we don't install or repair doors a homeowner bought somewhere else.

How long does a new shower door take?

Most jobs run one to two weeks from order to completion.

Is the estimate free?

Yes. Call (248) 541-3484 during business hours and we will set up a free estimate.

My Detroit house is old and the walls are not square. Can you still fit a glass door?

That is why we measure every opening in person before anything is ordered. The glass is built to the measurements we take in your bathroom.

Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. We are closed on weekends and do not offer 24-hour emergency service.

What finishes can I get on the hardware?

Can you fix other glass while you are at my Detroit home?

Yes. We do on-site glass repair and also handle mirrors, insulated glass, storm windows, storm doors, screens and tabletop glass.
