Overview

What this service covers.

A swing shower door is the most popular choice for a reason: it opens fully, it seals well, and in frameless glass it looks like a single sheet of glass on the wall. It suits bathrooms and jacuzzi surrounds where there is room for the door to open.

Swing doors hang on side hinges or on pivot hinges at the top and bottom. A pivot is just another way of making the door swing: it carries heavier glass, lets the door open wider and leaves even less metal on the glass. We will recommend whichever suits your opening, in the hardware finish that matches your fixtures.

Why a swing door

Full opening, clean lines, a proper seal.

  • Opens completely

    Nothing overlaps and nothing slides past. The full opening is available, which makes the shower easier to get into and to clean.

  • Hinged or pivot

    Side hinges on the wall or a fixed panel, or pivots top and bottom for a wider, heavier door with almost no visible hardware.

  • Frameless and minimal

    Thick tempered glass on quality hinges is as close to invisible as shower glass gets.

  • Fitted to your opening

    Bathrooms are rarely square. We measure yours and the door is made to it, instead of packing out a stock door.

How it works

From measure to first shower.

Our designer measures and draws up your job, the glass is made to those measurements by trusted local glass manufacturers such as Garibaldi Glass, and one of our own installation teams fits it.

  1. 01

    Site measure

    Our designer measures the opening, checks it for square and plumb, confirms the swing direction and the hinge type, and checks the clearance the door needs.

  2. 02

    Fixed written quote

    You get an itemised quote covering glass, hardware, finish and installation, with the options priced separately so you can see exactly what each choice costs.

  3. 03

    Made to your measurements

    The glass is cut, tempered and edge-polished to those measurements by a trusted local glass manufacturer, and the hinges and handles are prepared in your chosen finish.

  4. 04

    Installation & walkthrough

    One of our installation teams hangs and aligns the door, fits the seals, checks it closes cleanly, and shows you how to look after it.

Proof

What clients said after we finished.

I needed to replace my sliding shower glass door, so I reached out to several companies for quotes. Esfandiar from Alpha Glass stood out as the most responsive and accurate in communication, both over the phone and via email. His professionalism, coupled with the company's excellent reviews, convinced me to choose Alpha Glass. After a few days Shahab came to do the measurements and offered several great design suggestions, taking the time to explain everything in detail. The glass door was professionally installed, and after more than two weeks of usage, we are completely satisfied with the quality and service! Thank you all for your great work!

They were excellent. They arrived on time. Did really good work. Cleaned up after themselves. Went above and beyond looking after another shower door we were having trouble with. I would highly recommend this company. Thank you so much for the great service!

Swing door FAQ

Common questions about shower swing doors.

Something not covered here? Call +1-778-69-ALPHA (25742) or send us a photo of the job.

What is the difference between a pivot door and a hinged door?

Both swing. A hinged door hangs off the side, on a wall or a fixed panel. A pivot door turns on hinges at the top and bottom, which lets it carry heavier glass and open wider with less visible hardware. It is a choice of hinge, not a different kind of door.

How much clearance does a swing door need?

Enough for the panel to open fully without hitting the vanity, the toilet or the towel rail. We check that at the measure, and if the room is too tight we will tell you and suggest a sliding door instead.

Can the door open both ways?

Some hinges allow it, which is useful in a tight bathroom. Tell us at the measure and we will specify hardware that does.

Will it leak at the hinge side?

Not when the door is measured and sealed correctly. The hinge side has its own seal detail and the door is hung so it closes evenly into it.

What hardware finishes can I choose?

We offer a range of finishes and confirm the exact options with your quote, so the hardware matches your taps and fixtures.
