Frequently Asked Questions

  • What's the difference between frameless and framed shower doors?

    Frameless shower doors use thick tempered glass with minimal hardware for a modern, open look that makes bathrooms feel larger. Framed options provide added structure and better water containment for high-traffic family bathrooms. At Contemporary Glass, we'll help you choose the best style for your space.
  • How long does a custom shower door installation take?

    Most shower door installations are completed in one day once measurements and fabrication are finished. The entire process from consultation to installation typically takes one to two weeks depending on glass type and hardware selections.
  • Do you install gym mirrors for home fitness rooms?

    Yes, we install residential gym mirrors in various sizes to help you monitor form and track progress during workouts. Our mirrors are precisely cut and securely mounted to create a professional look for home gyms throughout Lindon, Orem, and Springville.
  • How do I keep shower glass clean with Utah's hard water?

    Utah County's hard water causes mineral buildup, so regular squeegee use after showers helps significantly. Protective coatings applied during installation reduce soap scum and water spots. We can recommend the best glass treatments for your specific installation.
  • Can glass handrails be installed outdoors?

    Yes, our glass handrails work beautifully for decks, balconies, and outdoor staircases. We use durable hardware that resists corrosion from weather exposure. Whether you prefer frameless designs or metal accents, we customize railings for both indoor and outdoor applications.

  • Do you install glass walls for home offices?

    Yes, glass wall panels create bright, open workspaces while providing visual separation from living areas. They're ideal for home offices, conference rooms, and commercial spaces. Options include frosted or etched glass for added privacy without blocking natural light.
  • How thick should shower door glass be?

    Most frameless shower doors use 3/8-inch tempered glass for safety and durability, while framed options work well with thinner glass. Thicker glass provides a more substantial feel and better sound dampening. We'll recommend the right thickness based on your door style and bathroom layout.
  • Can you install mirrors over bathroom vanities?

    Absolutely. We custom-cut bathroom mirrors to fit any vanity width and ceiling height, including odd angles and double-sink configurations. Professional mounting ensures secure installation and proper leveling. Beveled or polished edges provide a refined, finished look.
