Frameless Shower Doors in Weddington, NC
Weddington was built around large lots, and many of its homes date from the 1980s and 1990s, soon after the town incorporated. A lot of those primary baths are now 30-plus years old, with original framed doors, glass block or a corner tub that rarely gets used.
When those bathrooms are remodeled, the glass is usually the last thing installed. A frameless door and panel or a walk-in panel replaces the old enclosure, and the custom shower glass is cut to the new opening. On bigger properties, pool houses, guest suites and finished basements often need shower glass too.
KKC Glass has been a family business in Matthews since 1997. Kevin and Kyle measure each shower and handle the frameless shower installation themselves. See all layouts on our frameless shower enclosures page.

Shower Enclosure Styles for Weddington 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.

Pricing a Shower Door in Weddington
Your quote is based on your shower's measurements and your choices. These are the biggest factors.
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.

Remodeling an Older Bath or Building a New One?
Weddington 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.

Reviews of KKC Glass
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.

Weddington Shower Door FAQs
Can you replace glass block with a frameless shower?
Yes, once your remodeler removes the glass block and finishes the new tile and curb. We then measure the opening and build a frameless door, panel or walk-in enclosure to fit it.
Do you install shower glass in pool houses and guest suites?
Yes. Any finished shower can get custom glass, whether it's in the main house, a pool house, a guest suite or a basement bath.
Can you turn a corner tub and shower into one walk-in?
The tile and plumbing work comes first, usually by your remodeler. Once the new shower is tiled, we measure it and install the glass, often a large walk-in panel or a door and panel.
How far ahead should I schedule glass during a remodel?
Call us early so we can plan, then schedule the final measure when the tile is finished. Glass is made to those measurements, usually in 1–2 weeks, so it helps to build that into your remodel timeline.
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.
