A new shower door installation can transform a bathroom — and it’s one of the highest-ROI upgrades you can make before selling a home. At Tualatin Valley Glass, we’ve installed thousands of custom shower enclosures across Portland, Tigard, Beaverton, and the surrounding area. Here’s everything you need to know.
Shower Door Styles We Install
- Frameless glass shower doors — Clean, modern look with heavy 3/8″ or 1/2″ tempered glass. No metal frame means less hardware to clean and a more open feel. Our most popular option.
- Semi-frameless shower doors — Metal frame on the outside edges with frameless glass panels. Balances the modern look with slightly lower cost.
- Framed shower doors — Traditional aluminum-framed enclosures. Most affordable option, available in multiple finishes.
- Sliding (bypass) doors — Two panels that slide past each other. Ideal for tub-shower combos where a swinging door won’t work.
- Neo-angle enclosures — Designed for corner showers with angled entry. Custom-fitted to your exact dimensions.
Shower Door Replacement: When It’s Time
Existing shower doors don’t last forever. Signs you need a shower door replacement:
- Leaking at the bottom or sides despite new seals
- Rollers that stick, grind, or have fallen off the track
- Cloudy or etched glass that won’t clean
- Outdated chrome frame that doesn’t match your remodel
- Cracked or chipped tempered glass (this is a safety issue — replace immediately)

Every project includes a free in-home measurement, because no two shower openings are exactly the same. We template on site to ensure a perfect fit.
Our Shower Door Installation Process
- In-home measurement — We measure the opening, check walls for plumb, and discuss glass thickness, hardware finish, and door style.
- Template and fabrication — For frameless enclosures, we create a precise template. Glass is cut, polished, and holes are drilled for hardware. 2-3 week lead time.
- Installation — Our installers mount the hardware, set the glass, adjust the door, and seal everything. Most installations take 2-4 hours.
- Walk-through — We show you how the door operates, point out care tips, and clean up completely.
Hardware Finishes
We carry shower hardware in brushed nickel, chrome, matte black, oil-rubbed bronze, satin brass, and polished chrome. All hardware is sourced from CRL and C.R. Laurence — the same brands commercial glaziers trust.
