Frameless Sliding Shower Doors in Northern Virginia
Family owned since 1997 · Installed by our own crews · Virginia Class A Glass & Glazing Contractor
Top-rolling barn-style and bypass sliding shower doors for bathtubs and walk-in showers. Glass thickness depends on the selected system. Every opening is measured on site, the glass is fabricated to fit it, and our own crews install it — typically 7 to 10 business days from measure to install.
Single Slider or Double Bypass?
Single slider. One door slides in front of a fixed glass panel.
Double bypass. Both doors slide and pass each other on the header, so the opening can be on either side.
Every series we install is listed below with its glass thickness and finishes, so you can compare the series side by side.

Sliding Doors Over a Bathtub
A sliding door runs along the tub, so there is no door swinging out into the bathroom. CRL lists the Cambridge and Brixen double bypass sliders for use above a bathtub. At the measure we confirm which system suits your tub and walls. For tub screens, hinged tub doors and other tub layouts, see Bathtub Glass Enclosures.
Sliding Doors for Walk-In Showers
In a walk-in shower, a single slider pairs one moving door with a fixed panel, and a double bypass lets you step in from either side. A slider is a good fit where there is no room for a door to swing open.
Glass, Finishes and Coating
Glass thickness depends on the selected system; each series below lists the thicknesses its manufacturer specifies. Each one also comes in its own finishes. Clear, low-iron, frosted and textured glass are shown on Glass Options, and handles and towel bars on Hardware Options. EnduroShield coating is offered as an option.
Available Sliding Door Options
Nine CRL sliding systems. Glass thickness and finishes are listed for each one.
Brixen, Cavoli, Colonia and Tofino are CRL’s premium sliders, made from 304 stainless steel with concealed screws and tested by CRL to 20,000 cycles. Glass thicknesses shown are CRL’s specifications for each kit. Tap or hover over a finish to see a larger sample.

Cottage DK Series Slider
DOUBLE BYPASS — BOTH DOORS SLIDE
A more traditional sliding door: an aluminum header, metal side jambs and a bottom sill frame the glass, and the rollers ride overhead on bolt-through top hangers, so the sill stays uncluttered and easy to clean. The kit includes a back-to-back knob and a 24″ towel bar. Kits are made for 3/8″ glass, with some sizes for 1/4″ glass. Brite Gold Anodized is offered in the 3/8″ kits only.
