There are multiple glass types for various situations. Tempered glass, also known as laminated or safety glass, can help minimize safety risks and satisfy the requirements of current building codes. It’s made with two pieces of annealed glass that are laminated together.
All of our shower doors are tempered glass. When tempered glass is broken, it breaks into thousands of small pieces and typically stays in place rather than large, sharp pieces. Tempered glass lessens the potential injury compared to standard glass.

We use tempered safety glass in all of our shower doors. When this glass is broken, it breaks into thousands of small pieces, making potential injury minimal compared to standard annealed glass.

Laminated glass also has a variety of safety and security advantages. It is made of two pieces of annealed glass that are laminated together, for example. When broken, this glass typically stays in place.

For services like this, it depends on the type of glass and the nature of your table top. Please give us a call and we will be happy to evaluate the situation.

Absolutely! Ultra-clear or low-iron glass eliminates the “green tint” many of our customers dislike. By reducing the iron content, we create glass with no tint, providing beautiful, colorless clarity for your favorite fixtures or shower doors.

Heavy glass shower doors are produced from ⅜” or ½” thick glass and are held together with solid brass hardware. Heavy glass hardware is available in over 20 unique finishes designed to match today’s most popular hardware finishes.

On the other hand, framed shower doors are made from 3/16” or ¼” thick glass and held together with an aluminum frame available in about ten different finishes. These doors are typically more affordable than heavy glass doors.

Our team can walk you through deciding the best option for your bathroom!

Framed shower doors are available in standard heights of 68.5, 72, 80, and 84 inches, as well as custom heights.

Heavy glass doors are cut to custom sizes. However, there are restrictions based on weight and width that vary from shower to shower. Contact our team for a free consultation and we’ll discuss options for your space.

99% of the shower doors we sell are ultra-clear glass. There are a variety of other glass styles available and on display in our showroom.

This depends on several factors, including the selection of a framed door vs. a heavy glass door. Production and scheduling availability will vary based upon order, though we aim for lead times to range between 3 and 12 days. During your free consultation, our team will give you a better estimate for your install.

Every shower area is unique, and we need all of the final measurements to make sure we have an absolutely perfect fit. In some circumstances, framed shower doors can be adjusted to fit the space. Heavy glass showers, though, are cut to fit the exact space where they are being installed. Heavy glass showers must be custom cut at a tempering plant, and for that reason, we need all components finished before final measurements.

All shower doors have the possibility of leaking, some more than others. At M&M Glass, we discuss this at the initial consultation. There are a lot of factors that contribute to this, including the:

• Shower Design
• Shower Door Design
• Shower Size
• Shower head size and type
• Number of shower heads
• Shower head direction(s)
• Water pressure

We will take a look at your initial shower design and advise you accordingly on the best ways to avoid leaks based on best practices.

While heavy glass shower doors are the most popular, they also have more opportunities to leak than their framed counterparts. This is because heavy glass shower doors are designed with “gaps” that are susceptible to water leaks. At M&M Glass, we try to help you design your shower in a way that minimizes the risk of leaking.

It’s certainly physically possible to do this, but it’s not recommended. Without a tiled ceiling, mold and mildew can collect and saturate the drywall leading to damage.

There are a variety of design options available to support showers at the top. You don’t always need a header on a shower, but depending on design and cost considerations, it’s sometimes the best option.

There are a lot of different ways to design shower doors, and some of the most popular have minimal hardware. At M&M Glass, we take your vision and make it a reality. We will discuss advantages and disadvantages to every design you are considering and capture your perfect look when possible.

Weight is a concern for heavy glass shower doors, and stability is a concern in taller shower areas. We will recommend the best glass to achieve the design you want while considering safety, engineering, and cost.

Regular maintenance, proper plumbing, and cleaning can help ensure your shower door lasts a lifetime. We recommend you follow our guidelines for taking care of your shower door after installation.

We recommend and use an industrial-strength product, Hi-SHEEN, to clean all of our mirror and glass pieces. Sparkle Cleaner is safe for glass that has a protective coating. It removes light water spots, stains, and soap scum.

Bio-Clean Water Stain Remover is a professional strength cleaner recommended by both glazing contractors and professional window cleaning companies. After removing water stains, apply Bio-Clean Superior Silicone Sealant to the surface to prevent future build-up. For optimal results, apply every two to three months.

Framed mirrors have a way of completing a room, giving it a unique and textured look. Stock frames provide an affordable option, especially if you’re searching for standard sizes. Even though these frames are pre-made, you’ll still find a large variety of high-end finishes and luxurious looks to complement your home.

By choosing to go with custom framed mirrors, the design is in your hands. Our custom frame shop at M&M Glass allows us to create a gorgeous piece made specifically to fit the space and style of your room.

Absolutely! We pride ourselves on crafting pieces that work for your home or office needs. Custom cut-outs allow us to extend a pane of glass from wall to wall, ceiling to floor. Using mirror cut-outs, we can seamlessly add light fixtures, electrical outlets, and light switches.
