lucia77 I was asking because we had two companies measure and provide estimates, but they both included u-channels where the glass and tile met. I've seen many pictures on houzz where that no channels are used (which certainly looks better) and was wondering when it works and when the channel is required. Thanks.
kelliejenks You should find another company- we had about 3 companies measure and give us estimates and all of them wanted to channel or put something across the top. The final company we called said that they could do what we wanted if we went up to 1/2 inch glass, which added stability. The door was thinner glass (because we wanted a pretty wide door) and we added a few extra side braces. It works BEAUTIFULLY! FYI the door has a half panel on each side- one of the panels is attached to the wall, but the other panel is not (its attached to another peice of glass). Also, our glass company used engineeering pieces from C.R. Laurence which ontheir webiste shows many many different kinds of non-standard shower enclosures.

Annie Thornton Hi allenk. When you are looking at this photo, a really helpful way to see more images of the project is to simply look to the right side of the page. You can look at all images in that project and then you can get better answers about the layout of the bathroom. Check it out:
Show off your tilework. "We like to use frameless shower doors for a couple of reasons," says Mariette Barsoum of Divine Kitchens. "With a frameless door, there's no visual separation, which make the space larger. Plus, unlike framed doors, they don't hide the beautiful tilework in the shower. Frameless doors also sport a cleaner, more modern look — and we like that."
