Custom Shower Doors For Grosse Pointe
Our showroom sits at 42624 Van Dyke Ave in Sterling Heights, a straightforward run south to the lake communities of Grosse Pointe. We measure, build, and install frameless, sliding, and swing glass shower enclosures in-house, with no glass work handed off to a sub.
Built For Established Homes
Grosse Pointe leans toward older, well-kept homes near the water, the kind with character worth respecting when a bathroom gets reworked. Many of these baths were finished decades ago and now want clean glass instead of a tired framed unit or a curtain. We take a careful measurement on site so the enclosure fits the room you actually have, not a standard size forced into an old space.
Whether your project is a primary bath in one of the lakeside neighborhoods or a tidy guest shower closer to the commercial stretch along Mack and Kercheval, the approach is the same. You choose the glass and the metal, we fabricate it to your opening, and the same family that measured it comes back to set it. Nothing about your bathroom gets treated like a catalog order.
Older homes near the water, worth respecting.
Grosse Pointe leans toward older, well-kept homes near the water, the kind with character worth respecting when a bathroom gets reworked. That shapes how we approach the glass. The goal is rarely to make the room look brand new. It is to make the update look like it belonged there all along.
Layouts here vary widely, and older baths are rarely perfectly square. A custom enclosure is often the only way to get glass that fits right and looks like it belongs, because a stock door in an out-of-square opening announces itself immediately.
A lot of these homes were built around the bathtub and still are. That is not a limitation. A tub door or hinged screen mounts to the tub you already have, keeps water off the floor, and lets the room read as finished rather than temporary.
- Older, well-kept homes in the lake communities
- Baths that are rarely perfectly square
- Compact bathrooms where a swing door would crowd the vanity
- Homes built around the bathtub, with the tub staying put
Three Ways To Enclose
Frameless
Clean panels of 3/8" tempered glass held by minimal hardware, a quiet, modern look that suits both a renovated older bath and a newer build. The glass is the feature, not the frame around it.
Sliding (Barn-Style)
Glass that rolls on an exposed track, a smart fit when a swing door would crowd a vanity or a narrow Grosse Pointe bath. It gives you full access without a panel sweeping into the room.
Swing (Hinged)
A classic hinged door for walk-in showers and alcoves, opening wide and sealing clean. It is the natural choice for many of the established baths in this area.

From Measure To Install
It starts with a free in-home measure. We come to your house, look at the actual opening, talk through what works for the space, and take exact numbers. There is no pressure to decide on the spot, and you are choosing from real options, not guessing off a screen.
Once you settle on the glass and the hardware, we fabricate your enclosure and return to install it. Because the same family handles measuring, building, and setting the glass, the person who took the dimensions is accountable for how it fits. That is how a Grosse Pointe project stays simple from the first visit to the last.
- Free in-home measure, no pressure
- 3/8" tempered glass throughout
- Hardware: matte black, gold, chrome, nickel
- Glass: clear, low-iron, frosted, rain
- Fabricated in-house, no sub-contracted glass
- Same family measures and installs
Fit first, then finish.
Where the room allows it, frameless shower doors in Grosse Pointe deliver an open, modern look that still fits the high standards these homes are held to. We bring the free measure to you, talk through options with no pressure, and build a door that suits your walls, your tile and the way the bath is actually used.
When a swing door would crowd a vanity or a narrow bath, sliding and bypass doors keep the floor clear and work well over a tub. For layouts that vary from the standard, a custom enclosure is built around your shower rather than forcing your shower to fit a stock door.
If the seals have given up, the frame has pitted along the bottom where water always sat, or the glass has clouded past cleaning, replacement is the part most homeowners are relieved to hear about: new glass, same opening, tile untouched. And tub doors and screens mount to the bathtub you already own.
What an older enclosure looks like at the end.
The seals give up and water finds the floor. The glass goes cloudy from years of hard water and no amount of scrubbing brings it back. The frame pits and rusts along the bottom where water always sat, which in an older home is often the first thing a guest notices.
Here is the part most Grosse Pointe homeowners are relieved to hear: none of that requires touching the tile. We take the old enclosure out and set new custom glass in the same opening, built to the walls you actually have rather than the ones the house was drawn with.
A straightforward run south.
Our showroom sits at 42624 Van Dyke Ave in Sterling Heights, a straightforward run south to the lake communities of Grosse Pointe. We are family owned, and the same crew measures, fabricates and installs.
That is how a Grosse Pointe project stays simple from the first visit to the last. One family, one set of measurements, and no guesswork passed down a chain.
Around Grosse Pointe.
We cover Grosse Pointe as part of a tight Wayne County service area rather than a map with pins scattered across the state. The closest cities to you that we also serve are Eastpointe, St. Clair Shores, Roseville and Warren.
Everything runs out of one showroom, which is the point: the same family measures in Grosse Pointe, fabricates the glass in our own shop and installs it, whichever city the job is in. The full list of communities we cover is on the service area page, and if you do not see yours, call the showroom and ask.
Common questions.
Do you serve Grosse Pointe?
Yes. We travel from our Sterling Heights showroom to homes throughout the Grosse Pointe communities, roughly sixteen miles south, and the in-home measure is free.
What does a custom shower door cost?
It depends on the size of the opening, the enclosure type, the glass, and the hardware you choose. We give you a clear quote after the in-home measure so the number reflects your actual bathroom, not a rough estimate.
How long does the process take?
After the measure, your glass is fabricated to your opening and then installed on a return visit. We will walk you through the timeline once we have your measurements and your selections.
Can you supply only, or do you install too?
We handle the full job: we measure, fabricate in-house, and install. Keeping it all under one roof is how the fit stays right and the glass stays our responsibility.
Do you come out to Grosse Pointe?
Yes. It is a straightforward run south from the Sterling Heights showroom, and we bring the free in-home measure and quote to you.
Will modern glass look wrong in an older home?
It does not have to. We build to the room you have and talk through finishes that suit the house, so the update reads as part of the home rather than an insert.
My old frame has rusted at the bottom. Is that fixable?
Once a frame has pitted where water sat, the visible problem does not go away with new parts. New custom glass in the same opening is usually the cleaner answer.
Can you handle a bathroom that is out of square?
That is most older baths here. We take careful numbers off the whole opening and cut the panels to what is really there.
Can you match the style of an older home?
Yes. A crisp framed or semi-frameless edge can suit a period bathroom better than an all-glass look, and we would rather show you both than push one.
Is clear glass a mistake with hard water?
Not if you plan for it. An easy-clean coating and a squeegee keep clear glass sharp. If nobody in the house will squeegee, frosted or rain glass is the more forgiving choice.
