Glass shower doors, whether they are frameless, hinged, or have a minimal amount of framing to support a sliding glass door, are an affordable project that most DIY\u2019ers can do in less than a day and for under $300. Once completed, your shower enclosure or bathtub\/shower will be the envy of your neighbors!<\/p>\n<p>On this page of Business Finance News, we\u2019ll help you learn more about the types of glass shower doors available, as well as the retail cost variables and how they affect the prices. In addition to the product cost, we\u2019ll help you understand glass shower door installation and costs for hiring a pro to install it for you. At the end of the page you\u2019ll be able to compare shower door prices against other websites that offer installation information, as well as review what other homeowners like yourself have paid to have glass doors installed in their own shower.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"product-cost\">New Door and Supplies Cost Details<\/h2>\n<h3><span>Shower Door Cost Factors<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There are many options when it comes to shower doors. Depending on the type of shower or tub enclosure you have in your home, the type of shower door or features you choose are going to be limited by what you already have installed.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Size and Shape of Opening<\/strong> \u2013 The most common shower door sizes are for 32\u2033, 48\u2033 and 60\u2033 openings. In addition, glass shower doors can be custom made to fit any size you want if you have an irregular size shower. The general rule of thumb is this: The more glass you need, the higher the cost for a glass shower door.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Framed or Frameless Glass Doors <\/strong>\u2013 Framed doors are the more affordable type most homeowners are used to seeing. They slide from one side to the other, and are perfect for tighter space bathrooms. Frameless glass shower doors that are hinged generally cost more than sliders.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Type of Glass<\/strong> \u2013 There are a couple of different types of glass for shower doors. Frosted glass, or glass that has a finish on it to prevent a clear image on the other side is the most common found in cheaper glass shower doors. There is also clear, tempered glass that\u2019s resistant to breakage, and easy to clean.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span>Cost of Installation Supplies<strong><br \/><\/br><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Installation of glass shower doors can actually be a pretty straight forward project, depending on the type you install. A shower door kit from a retailer like Lowes or Home Depot will most often have all the hardware included, and you\u2019ll only need a few extra supplies and tools to get the job done.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>$10 \u2013 $25<\/strong> | Drill bit(s) to anchor the glass doors.<\/li>\n<li><strong>$25 \u2013 $35<\/strong> | Disposal of old doors.<\/li>\n<li><strong>$35 \u2013 $65<\/strong> | Silicone sealant for bottom and sides of doors.<\/li>\n<li><strong>$20 \u2013 $75<\/strong> | Caulking, Misc screws, fasteners, painters tape and other supplies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"installation-cost\">Permits, Inspection, and Installation Costs<\/h2>\n<h3><span>Permits and Inspection<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>$0<\/strong> | Permits and inspections are not usually required on a new shower door.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span>Shower Door Installation Cost and Time<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>$160 \u2013 $320<\/strong> | If you\u2019re replacing a set of sliding glass doors in your shower, it probably won\u2019t take more than a few hours. Aside from some exact width fitting and cutting of the door frame itself, it\u2019s a fairly straight forward project.<\/p>\n<p><strong>$480 \u2013 $650<\/strong> | Installation of a full glass shower enclosure, or a frameless glass shower door will take a bit longer. Plan on the possibility of a separate visit for precise measurement of the area, etc.<\/p>\n<h3><span>Completed Installation Time<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>2 \u2013 4 Hours<\/strong> | Easiest installation, where an old shower curtain was in place before.<\/li>\n<li><strong>4 \u2013 6 Hours<\/strong> | Most common installation. Remove old door, drill into ceramic tile of use existing holes, install new sliding doors and seal according.<\/li>\n<li><strong>6 \u2013 12 Hours<\/strong> | Larger area, or frameless shower doors with a hinged door.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"opinion\">DIY or Hire a Pro<\/h2>\n<p>I\u2019ve installed my own glass shower doors many times, and during a recent bathroom makeover we chose a mostly frameless sliding glass door kit due to space limitations. The kit was fairly easy to install and most DIY\u2019ers could handle this project with no problem. I installed ours over ceramic tile, so a diamond tip drill was used on low speed with plenty of water to assure the tile didn\u2019t crack during installation.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Heavy item \u2013 you\u2019ll need help.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure you have the proper tools and drills if you have ceramic tile.<\/li>\n<li>Silicone sealant\u2026 not latex!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I consider myself a very able handyman, 8\/10 on my skill level. I would not hesitate to install a sliding glass door kit as a DIY project. That said, if I was going with a frameless glass shower door setup, or a complete glass shower enclosure, I\u2019d leave it to the pros.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/main><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>$275 \u2013 $750, Installed The cost to put sliding glass doors in your shower is around $275 for a quality 48\u2033-60\u2033 kit with clear glass doors and DIY installation.
