Charlotte's Custom Frameless Shower Specialists

A frameless glass shower enclosure is the single upgrade that changes how a bathroom looks, how it feels to use every morning, and how buyers perceive a home. It opens the space visually, puts the tile work on display instead of hiding it behind a frame, and eliminates the mold-collecting tracks and metal strips that come with traditional framed doors.

KKC Glass has been designing and installing custom frameless shower enclosures throughout the greater Charlotte area since 1997. Every enclosure we build is measured and installed by our own team — no subcontractors, no handoffs, no one passing the buck if something isn't right.

Enclosure Styles We Install

No two bathrooms are the same. We work across the full range of frameless configurations.

Walk-In

Fixed glass panel or panels define the shower space without a swinging door. Clean, minimal, the most requested style in the Charlotte market right now.

Corner

Two glass panels meet at 90 degrees with a hinged door on one side. A strong choice for standard bathroom layouts where space is defined on two walls.

Alcove

Fits between three walls with a single hinged or sliding door. Common in Charlotte homes where a tub was removed in favor of a dedicated shower.

Neo-Angle

Five-sided configuration that angles the entry door toward the room. Popular where swing clearance is limited or the layout calls for a diagonal entry.

Sliding

The right call when door swing clearance is an issue — smaller bathrooms, tight layouts, or enclosures adjacent to a toilet or vanity.

Steam

Fully sealed panels, specialized door sweeps, and thermally rated glass for steam units. We've installed and serviced steam enclosures throughout the Charlotte area.

03

Glass Options

The glass itself matters more than most buyers realize before they start the process.

Thickness

Most frameless enclosures use 3/8-inch tempered safety glass. It works for nearly every configuration. Heavier 1/2-inch glass is used in rarer cases, such as an extra-wide or extra-tall panel. We'll recommend the right thickness during your estimate.

Clarity

Standard clear glass is the most popular choice. Low-iron glass (ultra-clear) eliminates the slight green tint that standard float glass carries, producing a noticeably brighter look — particularly noticeable with white or light-colored tile.

Protective Coatings

A hydrophobic coating causes water to bead and run off rather than sitting on the surface — significantly reducing water spotting and soap scum buildup. Worth considering for any enclosure.

Hardware Finishes

The hardware — hinges, handles, brackets, and sweeps — ties the glass to the rest of your bathroom design. We carry hardware in almost every finish, and can integrate towel bars and robe hooks into the glass panels as part of the same installation. Below are 6 of our most popular finishes. A selection of other finishes and most custom colors are available if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a frameless shower installation take from start to finish?
From the estimate visit to completed installation, most projects take 2–3 weeks. The measurement visit is 30–60 minutes, fabrication takes 1–2 weeks, and the installation day is typically 2–4 hours.
What is the difference between 3/8-inch and 1/2-inch glass?
Both are tempered safety glass and both are code-compliant. Three-eighths inch is the standard and is what most showers use. Half-inch glass is heavier and is used in rarer cases, such as an extra-wide or extra-tall panel.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. KKC Glass provides a one-year workmanship warranty on every installation. Hardware and glass carry their respective manufacturer warranties.
Can you match my existing bathroom fixtures?
In most cases, yes. We carry hardware in matte black, brushed nickel, polished and brushed gold, oil-rubbed bronze, polished brass, and chrome, plus a selection of other finishes and most custom colors if needed. Bring a photo of your existing fixtures to the estimate and we'll find the closest match.
