Cost & estimates

How much does a frameless shower door cost in Jupiter, FL?

Most installations range from $900 to $2,500 depending on glass thickness, hardware finish and enclosure size. We provide a free, itemized quote after an in-home measurement. See our cost guide for what affects price.

Is the estimate free?

Yes. Every project starts with a free in-home consultation and precision measurement, with no obligation.

Are frameless shower doors worth the extra cost?

For most homeowners, yes. Frameless glass is easier to clean, makes the bathroom feel larger and is an upgrade buyers notice. If budget is the priority, a semi-frameless or sliding door gives a modern look for less.

Why do shower door quotes vary so much?

Quotes differ on glass thickness, hardware quality, what is included and who installs. Compare quotes on the same glass, finish and layout, and confirm the installer is licensed and insured.

Styles & glass

What is the difference between frameless and semi-frameless enclosures?

Frameless uses minimal or no metal framing for a clean, glass-forward look. Semi-frameless includes a slim metal frame on some edges for added support at a lower price point.

What glass thickness do you use?

We install 3/8-inch and 1/2-inch tempered safety glass, sized to the enclosure's height and design.

What glass types are available?

Clear, grey and bronze tints, acid-etched (frosted) and rain glass. Clear is the most popular; etched and rain glass add privacy.

What hardware finishes can I choose?

Polished chrome, brushed nickel, matte black, oil-rubbed bronze and gold tones. We match hinges and handles to your fixtures.

Should I get a sliding or hinged shower door?

Choose a sliding door when space is tight or for a tub. Choose a hinged door for the widest entry and the most open look. Compare sliding and hinged.

Can you install glass on a bathtub?

Yes. We install sliding tub doors, fixed tub screens and frameless tub glass. See tub shower doors.

Installation

How long does installation take?

Most frameless enclosures are installed in 2 to 4 hours once your custom glass has been fabricated.

How long does custom glass fabrication take?

Typically 1 to 2 weeks from your deposit, since each panel is custom ordered and cut to your exact opening.

Do I need a permit for a shower door replacement?

Simple like-for-like replacements typically do not require a permit in Jupiter and Palm Beach County. We handle any paperwork when it is needed.

Do you use subcontractors?

No. Every job is installed by our own licensed crew.

Is Jupiter Shower Doors licensed and insured?

Yes. Jupiter Shower Doors is a Complete Sliding Doors & Windows company, Florida Certified General Contractor CGC #1514380, and fully insured.

What should I do before installation day?

Clear the bathroom counters and the path to the shower, and make sure tile and grout work is finished. We take care of the rest.

Care & maintenance

How do I keep frameless glass clean?

Squeegee the glass after each shower and wipe it weekly with a non-abrasive glass cleaner. This keeps soap scum and mineral spots from building up.

How do I remove hard water spots from shower glass?

Use a vinegar-and-water solution or a cleaner made for hard water, let it sit a few minutes, then wipe and rinse. Avoid abrasive pads and harsh chemicals that can scratch glass or damage hardware finishes.

Why is my frameless shower door leaking?

Leaks usually come from a worn bottom sweep, a missing or damaged side seal, or a door that has shifted out of alignment. Most are fixed by replacing the seal or sweep, or adjusting the hinges. Call us if you are not sure.
