Luxury, Frameless, and Custom-Fitted
Nothing defines a modern bathroom like a heavy, frameless glass shower enclosure. It opens up the room, shows off your tile work, and adds immediate value to your home. But unlike "kit" showers sold at big box stores, a custom enclosure must be engineered to fit your specific space. Walls in Caledon homes are rarely perfectly straight. Installix specializes in custom glass shower installation, designing and installing precision-fitted 10mm tempered glass enclosures that are watertight, durable, and stunning.
Why Custom beats "Kit" Showers
Perfect Fit for Imperfect Walls
Standard kits assume your walls are perfectly 90-degrees. They rarely are. We laser-measure your space and cut the glass out-of-square to match the slope of your wall and floor. This eliminates large gaps and the need for ugly, thick caulk lines.
Minimal Hardware
We use heavy 10mm or 12mm glass which is structurally self-supporting. This allows us to use minimal clips and hinges (Frameless) rather than bulky metal channels (Framed) that trap soap scum and mold.
Configuration Freedom
Knee walls, bench seats, steam showers, attic slopes—we can shape the glass to accommodate any design feature in your bathroom.
The Solution: 10mm Tempered Glass
We use premium 10mm (3/8") or 12mm (1/2") architectural tempered glass. It feels substantial, closes with a solid "thud," and is incredibly safe. We pair this with solid brass hardware plated in your choice of finish.
Why Choose Installix?
- Mildew Resistant: We use specific sanitary-grade silicone containing fungicides to prevent black mold growth in joints.
- Leak Prevention: We install clear polycarbonate sweeps and seals precisely where needed to keep water inside without ruining the frameless look.
- Design Advice: We help you decide on door swing direction and hinge placement to maximize safety and flow.

Our Process: Measure, Fab, Install
Step 1: Tile Must Be Complete
We can only measure once your tile work is 100% finished. We use laser levels to map every variation in the wall.
Step 2: Fabrication
The glass is CNC cut, polished, drilled for hinges, and then tempered. This takes approximately 7-10 business days.
Step 3: Installation
We install the glass with extreme care to avoid chipping your tile. The shower must cure for 24-48 hours before use to let the silicone set.
Pricing Factors
- Hardware Finish: Matte Black and Gold hardware cost more than Chrome.
- Glass Type: Low-Iron (Starphire) glass carries a premium but is recommended for light-colored tiles.
- Complexity: Steam showers requiring a movable transom above the door add labor and parts.
