5 Things to Look for in a Shower Door Company

May 7, 2025

When upgrading your bathroom, few features make as much of a visual and functional impact as your shower door. A high-quality shower door can transform your space, making it feel more modern, spacious, and comfortable. But not all shower doors—or the companies that install them—are created equal. Choosing the wrong shower door company can lead to frustrating issues like leaks, poor installation, and low-quality materials that don't stand the test of time.



So how do you make the right choice? Below, we break down the five essential things to look for in a shower door company and explain why TriView Reflections is Long Island and NYC’s trusted source for stunning custom shower doors.

1. Experience and Expertise Matter


When it comes to home improvements, experience is everything. A shower door installation might seem straightforward, but precision is crucial to ensure a perfect fit, avoid water leaks, and extend the life of your shower door. Companies that have been in business for decades have seen it all—awkward angles, tight spaces, and unique design challenges—and know how to handle each situation smoothly.


A company with a long track record brings:


  • Reliable Craftsmanship: Years of hands-on experience mean fewer mistakes and more polished results.
  • Problem-Solving Skills: Experienced installers can troubleshoot challenges on the fly, whether it's uneven walls or tricky layouts.
  • Deep Product Knowledge: An expert knows which materials and designs work best for different bathroom setups.


TriView Reflections, for example, has over 30 years of experience in the industry. Our team has perfected the art of measuring, crafting, and installing custom shower doors that fit seamlessly and look stunning. When you work with us, you benefit from decades of tried-and-true techniques and a deep understanding of what works best for your space. Learn more about our expertise here.


2. Customization Options for Every Bathroom


Every bathroom is unique, and your shower door should reflect that. Unfortunately, many companies offer limited selections, pushing customers toward cookie-cutter designs that don’t suit their space or style. A high-quality shower door company will offer a variety of customization options to ensure your door fits your bathroom—and your personal taste—perfectly.

Here’s what you should look for:


  • Design Variety: Frameless, semi-frameless, and framed options.
  • Functional Styles: Sliding doors, pivot doors, custom shapes.
  • Finishes & Hardware: A range of glass types, metal finishes, and hardware styles to match your décor.
  • Tailored Fit: Custom measurements to ensure a precise, gap-free fit.


At TriView Reflections, customization is at the core of what we do. Whether you’re dreaming of a sleek frameless shower door or a more traditional framed design, we offer a wide selection of styles and finishes. Our team works closely with you to ensure your vision becomes a reality, with designs that not only look great but also maximize space and functionality. Explore our customization options.


3. Quality of Materials and Craftsmanship


The quality of your shower door's materials will determine how long it lasts and how well it performs. Low-cost materials may look fine initially but can quickly degrade, leading to issues like chipping, staining, or hardware failure. To protect your investment, you should always choose a shower door company that prioritizes premium materials and superior craftsmanship.


Key considerations include:


  • Glass Quality: Look for tempered, safety-rated glass that resists chips and cracks.
  • Hardware: High-quality metal components that won’t corrode or break down over time.
  • Seals and Gaskets: Durable, flexible seals that prevent leaks and withstand daily wear.


At TriView Reflections, we source only top-tier materials to ensure your shower door not only looks beautiful but also lasts for years to come. Our tempered glass options provide maximum durability, and we offer premium hardware in a variety of finishes to complete the look. Plus, our meticulous craftsmanship ensures every piece fits perfectly and performs as expected. See how we prioritize quality.


4. Professional Installation Process


Even the best shower door can fail if it’s not installed properly. Precision installation is critical for both the performance and the longevity of your shower door. A company that takes shortcuts during installation can leave you with leaks, loose fittings, and an overall unsatisfactory result.


What to expect from a top-tier installation process:


  • On-Site Measurement: Careful measuring of your specific space to ensure a perfect fit.
  • Skilled Installers: Trained professionals who handle your door with care and precision.
  • Meticulous Cleanup: Leaving your bathroom spotless and ready to use.
  • Final Inspection: A thorough quality check to confirm everything is flawless.


At TriView Reflections, we don’t cut corners. Our installation process starts with a free consultation and precise on-site measurements. Our expert installers work carefully and efficiently, completing most installations in just one day. We also perform a full quality inspection to ensure everything meets our high standards before we leave. Learn more about our installation process.


5. Customer Support and Satisfaction Guarantee


Bathroom renovations can be stressful, and having reliable customer support makes all the difference. A reputable shower door company should provide clear communication, transparent pricing, and dependable aftercare. Plus, a satisfaction guarantee offers peace of mind that your investment is protected.


Look for:


  • Clear Communication: Prompt responses to your questions and concerns.
  • Transparent Pricing: No hidden fees or surprise charges.
  • Post-Install Support: Help with maintenance, repairs, or adjustments.
  • Guarantee: A solid warranty or satisfaction guarantee.
