Our Work Across Metro West

Custom glass installations from Wellesley to Newton to Lexington — every configuration, every finish, every bathroom type.

Where We Work

Neighborhoods & Communities We Serve

The homes of Metro West are varied — from post-war colonials in Newton to new construction in Weston. Our installations reflect the full range of what these bathrooms require.

Wellesley Hills & Wellesley Farms

Larger master baths with walk-in configurations. Common request: frameless corner enclosures with brushed nickel or matte black hardware.

Newton Centre & Newton Highlands

Older colonial-era homes with standard alcove openings. Semi-frameless bypass and frameless hinged doors are the most frequent installations.

Lexington & Belmont

Extensive bathroom renovations with angled ceilings and non-standard openings. Custom-cut panels are common in these configurations.

Natick, Needham & Weston

New construction with generous master bath footprints. Large frameless walk-in panels and luxury hardware finishes are popular here.

Popular Configurations

What Gets Installed Most Often in These Homes

Frameless Alcove Door — Brushed Nickel

Standard 60" alcove opening. Single hinged door, 3/8" clear glass, brushed nickel hardware. The most requested configuration in Newton and Wellesley.

Corner Enclosure — Matte Black

Two fixed panels and a hinged entry door on a 90° corner. Matte black hardware paired with standard clear or low iron glass. Very popular in Needham and Lexington.

Walk-In Panel — No Door

A fixed glass panel on one or two sides, open entry. Low-maintenance and visually minimal. Frequent choice for large master baths in Weston and Wellesley Farms.

Semi-Frameless Bypass — Chrome

Classic two-panel bypass in a slim track. Chrome hardware with 1/4" tempered glass. Practical for tight alcoves in older Newton and Belmont homes.
