When planning your frameless shower there are two hardware options to choose from. You can either build your frameless shower with premium-grade stamped metal parts or you can build it with U-channels, long rails your glass panels sit in.

 

The decision you make affects the price and look of your shower.

 

Metal clips are used to create a true frameless appearance. These two-inch heavy clips secure the glass panels of your frameless shower, to a floor, wall or another glass panel, preserving an all-glass look.

 Glass Clips  

To reinforce a heavy glass frameless shower, metal clips are solid and thick, providing ample strength to stabilize glass panels.

 

The number of metal clips you'll need will depend on the specifications of your shower design and the size of each glass panel. Each clip requires a custom notch cut in your glass panel to create a tight fit. This is where the cost of using metal-clips for assembly increases over U-channels. It simply costs more for precision glass work.

 

Metal clips are made to fit either 3/8" of 1/2" heavy glass, and are available in various styles and finishes. Clients can choose square, rectangular and oval hinges to blend with both traditional and modern bathroom fixtures.

Will water leak out of the metal clip?

No. Under normal shower conditions, metal clips should not be a source for water leakage. These clips can and should be sealed with clear silicone. Overtime, these clips and other areas of your glass shower can be resealed is necessary.

 

Are there different styles of metal clips?

Yes, because metal clips are more visible in sight line areas of your glass shower, there's a trend to add more style to this hardware component. Clips can be squared off, rounded and triangular. These styles blend with choices for side hinges.

 

Can I use metal clips to hold any shower configuration?

Yes, just as we have hinges designed to secure a shower glass door in a straight line or 90 degree return, etc. We have metal clips that do the same job for fixed glass panels. The clips are made for 180 degree, 135 degree and 90 degree angles. For more custom angles there's an adjustable clip.
