When it comes to designing a bathroom that reflects both functionality and luxury, custom shower and tub enclosures have become a game-changer. They not only enhance the overall look and feel of your space but also add long-lasting value to your home. At Hansen Glass, we understand that your bathroom is more than just a necessity—it’s your personal retreat. With over 37 years of expertise, we specialize in crafting high-quality, durable, and stylish glass solutions, including fully customized enclosures that fit your unique lifestyle.
In this guide, we’ll cover everything you need to know about custom shower and tub enclosures—why they matter, their benefits, design options, and how Hansen Glass can help you achieve the bathroom of your dreams.
Why Choose Custom Shower and Tub Enclosures?
Unlike prefabricated enclosures, custom glass solutions are tailored specifically to your bathroom’s dimensions, design, and style preferences. This means you aren’t limited to standard sizes or generic looks—you get a perfect fit and a design that complements your home.
Some key reasons homeowners prefer custom shower and tub enclosures include:
- Perfect Fit: Custom enclosures are designed to match your exact bathroom measurements, ensuring no gaps or awkward adjustments.
- Modern Style: Frameless and semi-frameless enclosures create a sleek, contemporary look that instantly upgrades your bathroom.
- Increased Home Value: Bathrooms with elegant glass enclosures are attractive to potential buyers, boosting your property’s resale value.
- Easy Maintenance: Glass enclosures are easier to clean and maintain compared to shower curtains or outdated sliding doors.
- Durability: Crafted from high-quality tempered glass, custom enclosures are built to last.
Types of Custom Shower and Tub Enclosures
At Hansen Glass, we offer a wide range of styles to fit your preferences and budget. Whether you want a minimalist frameless look or something more traditional, we have options for you.

- Stylish yet practical
3. Framed Enclosures
For those who prefer a more traditional or budget-friendly option, framed shower enclosures are still an excellent choice.
Benefits:
- Strong and sturdy structure
- Wide variety of finishes and frame colors
- Affordable without compromising quality
4. Custom Tub Enclosures
If you have a bathtub and want a clean, updated look, custom tub enclosures are a fantastic upgrade from traditional shower curtains.
Benefits:
- Prevents water splashes and leaks
- Adds elegance to bathtub areas
- Easy to maintain and long-lasting
