Frameless glass, replacing the builder enclosure in Apex.
Custom Shower Doors in Apex.
In Apex the shower door is usually not the original problem, it is the last thing left from the original build. Maven Glass measures and installs custom shower doors across Apex, with 33 years in the glass trade. Licensed and insured, and shower glass is what we do best.
Frameless, semi-frameless, or framed, with many hardware options available. And we are straight about frameless glass: it is designed with small, intentional gaps, so a little water movement at the edges is normal. We set honest expectations for your layout rather than promise a seal frameless is not built to provide.
What to expect
We can usually give you a rough quote right over the phone. We call within 24 hours to book your critical measure, and that appointment comes with a one-hour arrival window instead of a half-day of waiting. Your glass is then made to exact dimensions, quality-checked on arrival, and installed clean.
What we run into in Apex bathrooms
Apex is one of the fastest-growing towns in the Triangle and most of what we touch here is production housing. The enclosure that came with the house is nearly always framed aluminum or a bypass slider specified to a builder budget, and it is usually the first thing homeowners want gone once the rest of the bathroom has been updated.
Going from that to frameless is mostly straightforward, with two things worth checking first. The old track is caulked to the tile and has to come up cleanly, and the curb needs checking for level and for the slope that drains water back into the pan. Frameless glass sits on that curb, so if the slope is wrong, new glass is not what fixed it.
Our custom shower doors page covers the configurations, the hardware options and the measure process in more detail.
Wondering what it costs? We do not publish a number, and we explain honestly why not: what actually moves the price of a frameless shower door in Apex.

Common Questions
Apex questions, answered.
Do you serve Apex?
Yes. Apex is part of our regular service area and roughly fifteen minutes from our shop in Morrisville. With so much newer housing here, replacing builder-grade enclosures with frameless glass is a large part of what we do in town.
Will a frameless shower door leak?
Frameless glass is designed with small, intentional gaps, so a little water movement at the edges is normal and not a defect. Thoughtful design and proper installation keep it minimal, and aiming showerheads and body sprays toward the walls rather than the door helps too. We set honest expectations for your layout rather than promise a watertight seal that frameless glass is not built to provide.
What happens at the critical measure appointment?
We measure the finished opening at several heights, check the walls for plumb and the curb for level, and confirm the configuration and hardware. You get a one-hour arrival window for that appointment rather than a half-day of waiting. It matters because tempered glass is made to final size and cannot be cut, drilled or trimmed afterward, so everything has to be right before the order goes in.
