Frameless Shower Doors in Evans: Get the Guest Bath Ready Before the Holidays

Custom Frameless Shower Doors in Evans, Measured Before the Guest List Is Final

Stand in the hall bath for a minute and look at it the way a guest will. The framed slider sticks halfway. The bottom track has a ring of soap scum nobody has managed to scrub out in years. The whole thing looks a little cloudy and a little tired, and it is about to become the room every guest ends up in at some point, once the holiday guest list is set and people start coming over. Custom glass keeps its own calendar: a measure first, then cutting and tempering at our Evans shop, and the install usually follows 1 to 2 weeks after the measurement is approved. That makes now the window for custom frameless shower doors, before the house fills up. Most residential enclosures go in at 3/8 inch tempered glass, and 1/2 inch is the heavier upgrade. The glass can be clear, frosted, textured in patterns like rain and reed, or low iron (worth it if the faint green edge on standard glass bugs you). Book the measure with Moffat Glass in Evans now, and the old slider can be gone before the first guest drops a bag in the spare room.

Hinged Shower Doors for Guest Baths in Greeley and Weld County

Hinged doors are the easy pick for a guest bath, and the reason is simple. One panel, one swing, and nothing for a visitor to puzzle over at 7 a.m. in somebody else's house. The door hangs from wall mount hinges anchored into a stud backed wall. When the opening runs wider than the door itself, it hangs from glass to glass hinges off a fixed side panel instead. Widths usually land between 24 and 36 inches, but nothing comes from stock. Each door is sized to the opening as it actually exists, and the templating visit settles which side it hinges on and whether it clears the vanity. Sounds fussy. It is also the difference between a door that works and one that bangs the cabinet every morning. A sweep along the bottom edge and vertical seals keep the water in. Hardware is CRL, in matte black, brushed nickel, polished chrome, oil rubbed bronze, or gold, and wider single panels step up to 1/2 inch glass. Plenty of houses between Evans and Greeley have a guest bath built for exactly this, and our team at Moffat Glass measures it in person before any panel gets cut.

Semi Frameless Shower Doors for Older Evans Bathrooms

Older bathrooms are a different story. Walls drift a little out of plumb, the tile was set by eye, and a fully frameless panel will show off every one of those quirks. That is where semi frameless earns its keep. The measure checks the walls and jambs first. Then a slim framed channel goes in at the wall jamb, usually with a floor track, which tends to be more forgiving on an uneven opening and still does not make the shower look boxed in. The layouts are mostly the same as the frameless line: hinged, inline with a fixed panel, L shaped corners, and bypass or barn style sliders. There are also five panel neo angle enclosures for the corner tub nobody uses anymore. Standard glass is 3/8 inch tempered, cut, edged, and tempered in house instead of shipped in from out of state. On install day, we send our own technicians from Moffat Glass on West Service Road. They are usually on site 2 to 4 hours, and the visit ends with a walkthrough for alignment and seals and a water test before anyone calls it done.

Whichever style wins, it starts the same way, with someone in the bathroom holding a tape measure. The opening on paper and the opening behind the old door rarely agree. Quotes are free. At Moffat Glass, we have been cutting glass in Northern Colorado since 1921. We hold an A+ rating with the BBB of Northern Colorado and belong to the National Glass Association and the Shower Door Professionals Co-op. Homes on hard water can add an optional Diamon-Fusion coating, applied at the shop, which helps the glass resist mineral buildup. Most custom enclosures land between $2,000 and $3,500, depending on glass, hardware, and size. Our headquarters is 3511 W Service Rd in Evans, open 8 to 4:30, Monday through Friday. Call 970 888 6273 or reach out to the Moffat Glass shower team to get a measure on the calendar this week, and you'll give the new glass a real shot at going in before the holiday crowd shows up.
