Below are a couple of examples of why it’s important not to have the eyes taken off the focal point.  Although not everyone seeks some form of Etched Glass Work on their Frameless Shower Enclosure but if you do seek it we have 30 years experience doing so. From Simple type Patterns to the most Professional Sand Carving available all done “In-House”.  Without all the Clips or any type Headers it’s easy to appreciate not only your Frameless Shower but  also any kind of Etched Designs  you may had done. Focus On Your Glass. The above Photos show how we Install our Frameless Shower Enclosures without the use of any Clips what so ever and without the need for any Headers. Without the use of all the Clips staggered throughout and without a Header the focal point is directed to the Glass Pieces. Your Frameless Shower Enclosure will appear to be Floating in place.  Our Clipless and  Headerless Frameless Showers are the Industries Cleanest and most Finished looking unlike Internet Shower Kits. Strength and Integrity is built in by how the Glass Panels are Secured to the Channels which will never let a Panel go out of Adjustment. Focus is on the Clean Look of Floating Glass. The above Photos show examples of Shower Enclosures using Staggeringly placed Clips along with the use of Headers. The combination of the two types of Hardware make for an unappealing overall look (remember “No Channels” means Exposed “Pumped In” Silicone Edges as with the use of Clips). Especially when a Door is Mounted off a wall and at times when a Door is hung from a Panel absolutely no Header is required. These are examples of Internet Shower Kits made for easy installations for the Trade but leave a less desirable look. Headers Unnecessary. Headers Unnecessary. Headers Unnecessary. Headers vs No Headers. What else needs to be said about the Photo to the left. No Sloppy looking Exposed Silicone Edging. Straight Line Low Profiled appearance of Channels is what keeps the value of your Frameless Shower Enclosure. There’s no  mistaking the difference just how finished the overall look of Channels brings to your Unit plus keeps the eyes directed to the main element like the Glass. The Photo to the left shows (even with Short Clips being used by others) that the clips draw attention away from  the Glass as will Taller Clips. Most of all the Glass Edges must be Pumped Filled with Silicone making for the most Unfinished and Unappealing look. Exposed Silicone will keep the water from escaping from your Shower but will  definitely De-Value your Enclosure compared to Channels. Leaves an unfinished look. Professionally Finished. The comparison between the bulky Clip Hardware and  that of the Low Profiled Channel is unmistakable. When Staggering the Clips on an Enclosure it tends to draw the eye right to the Clips and away from the Glass itself by being so noticeable. Channels hug the walls and curbs as straight lined low visibility keeping more of the attention where it should be,,,,,,,On the Glass. Which would Stand Out more? Clips vs Channels. So what’s the difference between Shower Panel Clips vs Panel Channels,,,,A world of difference in the Finished overall look. Staggered protruding Clips draws the eye away from the Glass itself and brings the focus to the Clips(the least appealing part of any Frameless Shower Enclosure).  By  using Channels without the clips the focus is brought back to the Glass making your Enclosures  Glass appear to be Floating in place. There’s no disputing that Channels provide the industries  Cleanest most Finished look. There is absolutely more work to Custom Cutting the Channels down to exact Tolerances as opposed to drilling simple clip holes but it’s well worth it.    Done correctly during the Installation, most Frameless Shower Enclosures Do Not require a Header even with Corner Units and Neo-Angled units yet still have the same Integrity built in. The point for Clipless and Headerless Frameless Shower Enclosures is to completely minimize as much metal as possible so what you see is mainly Glass.   Below we will show the main differences between Clips vs Channels. How most Frameless Shower Enclosures do not require Headers and point out how well Channels prove to be the cleanest, finished look possible. Give Us A Call, We Come To You!
