Frameless Shower Doors in Indian Trail, NC
Indian Trail sits between Matthews and Monroe along Old Monroe Road, and it grew quickly in the 1990s and 2000s. Many of those homes are now being updated by owners who plan to stay, and a common change is trading a step-over tub for a walk-in shower.
That kind of project is where glass matters most. A walk-in panel with an open entry has no door to manage, and a low-curb shower with a frameless door keeps water in without a tall threshold to step over. These layouts suit homeowners in Indian Trail's active-adult communities who want a shower that's easier to step into.
KKC Glass has been a family business in Matthews since 1997. Kevin and Kyle measure your shower and handle the frameless shower installation, and the custom shower glass is cut to your opening. Browse layouts and finishes on our frameless shower enclosures page.

Shower Glass Layouts for Indian Trail Homes
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 Changes the Cost of a Shower Door in Indian Trail
We price every shower from its own measurements. Here's what makes the biggest difference.
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
Converting a Tub or Replacing a Door?
Indian Trail projects tend to fall into one of these two groups.
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 Our 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.

Indian Trail Shower Door FAQs
Can you glass a walk-in shower with no door?
Yes. A fixed walk-in panel leaves an open entry, so there's no door to swing or slide. We size the panel and the opening so spray stays inside, and we'll confirm the layout works for your shower when we measure.
Do low-curb or curbless showers need special glass?
They need careful planning. With little or no curb, the floor slope and drain location do the work of keeping water in, so we look at both before choosing a walk-in panel or a door with a sweep.
Can you replace a framed door on a 1990s Indian Trail shower?
Yes. We remove the old door and frame, check the tile and curb underneath, and fit frameless or semi-frameless glass to the opening.
Do you work with remodelers on Indian Trail bathroom updates?
Yes. If a contractor is converting your tub, we can talk with them before tile goes up and measure once it's finished.
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.
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.
