Frameless Shower Doors in Charlotte, NC
Charlotte homeowners usually call us at the end of a project. The tile is set, the valve is in, and the shower needs glass that fits what the remodel left behind. We measure that finished opening, help you choose the layout, glass and hardware, and our crew handles the frameless shower installation.
Charlotte's bathrooms vary as much as its neighborhoods do. A 1930s Eastover bath with plaster walls, a 1970s Sherwood Forest hall bath built around a tub, a Ballantyne primary suite with a garden tub nobody uses and a curbless shower in a South End condo each need different glass. That's why we don't sell stock sizes. Every enclosure is quoted and cut for one opening.
For a full look at enclosure styles, glass types and hardware finishes, see our frameless shower enclosures page.

Shower Enclosure Options for Charlotte Bathrooms
Every layout is available in frameless or semi-frameless glass. We'll confirm what fits your opening when we measure.
Door Only
A single frameless door hung between two finished walls. Common in alcove showers where a tub used to be.
Door and Panel Fronts
A hinged door beside one or more fixed panels in a straight line, for shower fronts too wide for a door alone.
Corner Enclosures
Two glass walls meeting at a right angle, with the door on either face. Built for showers set into a corner.
Neo-Angle Enclosures
Three glass sides with angled corners that face the entry toward the room. Often paired with a corner shower base.
Sliding Doors
Glass that glides along a rail instead of swinging out. The answer when there's no room for a door to open.
Tub Splash Panels
A fixed glass panel along part of a tub that keeps water in and lets the shower curtain go.
Steam Enclosures
Sealed glass that runs to the ceiling, often with a transom above the door, so the steam stays in the shower.

What Shapes the Price of a Shower Door in Charlotte
Every quote is written for your bathroom. These are the things that move it.
Size and number of panels
A single walk-in panel costs less than a door with two returns.
Glass thickness
Most showers use 3/8" glass. Heavier 1/2" glass costs more and is saved for the occasional extra-wide or extra-tall panel.
Glass type
Standard clear glass, or low-iron glass that removes the green tint and costs more.
Hardware finish
Matte black, brushed nickel, polished or brushed gold, oil-rubbed bronze, polished brass or chrome. Other finishes and most custom colors are available if needed.
Notches and cutouts
Glass that wraps a bench, knee wall or sloped ceiling needs extra cuts.
Removing an old door
Taking out an existing framed door and track adds a step to the install.
04
Replacing a Door or Glassing a New Shower?
Most Charlotte shower glass jobs start one of two ways.
Replacing an existing door
Your shower works, but the framed door is dated, corroded or hard to keep clean.
- We take out the old door, frame and track.
- We check the curb and walls for damage hiding under the frame.
- New frameless or semi-frameless glass is sized to the opening.
- Often done without retiling the shower.
Glass for a remodel or new build
You're building a new shower, or converting a tub, and the glass is the last piece.
- Call us before tile so hinge and clamp locations are planned.
- We measure after the tile, curb and valve are finished.
- We schedule around your contractor's timeline.
- Your remodeler can deal with us directly.

Reviews from KKC Glass Customers
I've used them four times in the past few years for frameless shower installations and they did a fantastic job on each project. Everything from the measure to the order to the installation was handled quickly and efficiently. I got quotes from numerous companies, but KKC was the best.
Excellent service and competitive price. Kevin showed up on time and completed the job very quickly. Area was cleaned up and old materials and boxes removed. Highly recommend this local family business.
I had such a great experience with KKC glass. The technicians were very professional and efficient. I would highly recommend KKC glass for any of your glass needs.

Charlotte Shower Door FAQs
How much does a glass shower door cost in Charlotte?
It depends on the size of the opening, how many panels it needs, the glass thickness and type, the hardware finish and whether an old door has to come out first. We measure your shower and give you a written price for that bathroom, so the number you approve is the number you pay.
Can you install glass on a tub-to-shower conversion?
Yes. Once your remodeler has finished the tile and the curb, we measure the new opening and build the enclosure to it. If you talk to us before tile goes up, we can also flag where hinge and clamp locations will land.
Do you work with Charlotte remodelers and builders?
Yes. Our commercial division already works with general contractors and builders across the Charlotte area, so coordinating a shower measure and install around a remodeling schedule is routine for us.
Can you install a shower door in a high-rise condo?
Yes. Uptown, South End and Midtown buildings often require a booked service elevator, a parking plan or a certificate of insurance. Send us your building's requirements when you schedule and we'll handle the paperwork side before install day.
Will a frameless shower door leak?
Frameless doors have small gaps at the hinges and edges. Sweeps and seals handle normal spray, and the slope of the curb and the position of the showerhead matter too. If anything in your layout could send water toward a gap, we'll point it out when we measure.
What warranty comes with the installation?
Our workmanship carries a one-year warranty. Glass and hardware are covered by their manufacturers' warranties.
Where is KKC Glass located?
Our shop is at 4004 Matthews-Indian Trail Rd, Matthews, NC 28104, and we work throughout Charlotte. Call (704) 845-0831 Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 4:30 PM.
