Frameless Shower Doors in Matthews, NC
KKC Glass has worked out of Matthews since 1997, from our shop on Matthews-Indian Trail Road. When you call about a shower door, you're calling a business in your own town, and the frameless shower installation is handled by the family that owns it.
Much of Matthews was built during the town's growth in the 1980s and 1990s. Many of those bathrooms still have their original framed shower doors, cultured-marble surrounds or a garden tub that takes up half the room. Swapping the old door for frameless glass, or pulling the tub for a walk-in shower, are common updates in these homes.
Closer to downtown, homes near Trade Street and John Street are older and their walls are less predictable. Newer townhomes around the town center often have tight bathrooms where a sliding door or a single panel fits best. Every Matthews shower gets custom shower glass cut to its own opening.

Shower Enclosure Options for Matthews 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 Shapes the Price of a Shower Door in Matthews
Your quote is written for one bathroom. Here's what moves the number.
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
New Glass for an Old Door or a New Shower?
Matthews shower glass projects usually 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.

Matthews Shower Door FAQs
Where is KKC Glass located in Matthews?
Our shop is at 4004 Matthews-Indian Trail Rd, Matthews, NC 28104. We've been based in Matthews since 1997. Call (704) 845-0831 Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 4:30 PM.
What does a frameless shower door cost in Matthews?
There's no single price, because every door is sized to one opening. The size, number of panels, glass thickness, clear or low-iron glass, the hardware finish and removing an old door all affect it. We measure first and then give you a written quote.
Can you replace the original shower door in an older Matthews subdivision home?
Yes. Many homes built during Matthews' growth in the 1980s and 1990s still have their original framed doors. We remove the door and track, check the curb and walls underneath, and measure for frameless or semi-frameless glass.
Will a sliding door work in a small Matthews townhome bathroom?
Often, yes. Sliding glass doors and single fixed panels suit compact bathrooms because nothing swings into the room. We'll check the clearance around your vanity and toilet when we measure.
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.
