a Frameless shower enclosure really &#8220;frameless&#8221; or &#8220;seamless&#8221;?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>The word &#8220;frameless&#8221; or &#8220;seamless&#8221; refers more to the thickness and style of the shower enclosure rather than a literal description.<\/p>\n<p>Frameless shower doors typically use 3\/8\u201d or 1\/2&#8243; tempered glass.\u00a0 The thicker glass provides more stability and requires less support from surrounding metal compared to framed or semi-frameless shower enclosures.<\/p>\n<p>For pivot door enclosures, 2 hinges are used to attach the door to the wall or the glass and either \u201cU\u201d channel or a \u201cClamp\u201d system mounting method is used to secure the stationary panels in place.\u00a0 Both are very effective and most choose one or the other based upon how they look.<\/p>\n<p>For an estimate, please contact our office at 702-643-7046 and our Sales Reps will explain the differences and help you make the best decision for your bathroom!<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few examples of frameless pivot shower enclosures and hardware options:<\/p>\n<p><a
