ccfergs This is a beautiful shower, we are trying to transform a space which now has a tub/shower combo to look exactly like this. Where did you purchase the shower doors? Are they custom or pre-fab?
John Whipple - By Any Design ltd. That looks like a custom frameless enclosure to me. Here in Vancouver most times a standard framless install is under $1,500.00. It is important to note that this finally stage can be the one that cause a well build shower to fail.
Drilling in for glass supports and hinges can wreck a shower and lead it down the road to failure with one or two little punctures in the waterproofing.
It is always better to install hinges on the wall or on the glass and not the floor or shower curb.
For sure the glass can be glazed ore etched. Your glass supplier should be able to etch. If not, he works mostly with somebody together who is able to etch the glass. But there are more possibilities. The new trend is to laser engrave the glass. Almost every motive is possible: Have a look for some examples:
