Frameless glass shower enclosure

Shower Doors in Saskatoon.

As the sunniest city in Canada, Saskatoon puts more UV on a skylit or south-facing shower enclosure over the years than the same fixture sees almost anywhere else on the prairies.

In short

Saskatoon is the sunniest city in Canada, and a shower enclosure set under a skylight or a south-facing bathroom window takes more UV exposure over the years than the glass itself sees anywhere else on the prairies, enough to yellow standard sealant and dull hardware finish. Crateworks specs UV-stable sealant and hinge coatings for that exposure.

Built for Saskatoon’s climate

The detail that catches most shower-glass specs off guard in Saskatoon isn't cold, it's light. As the sunniest city in Canada, a bathroom with a south-facing window or skylight puts real UV load on the silicone at the glass edge and on the hinge finish, more than the same fixture sees in a cloudier city, and standard sealant yellows and hardware coatings dull faster under that exposure. The city's sharp day-night temperature swing adds a second stress, hinges and clamps expand and contract slightly with it the same way a window seal does, which is harder on standard hardware than steady cold ever is. Older bathrooms in Nutana and City Park also rarely run a square opening, so custom sizing is as much a part of the spec as the coating.

What we plan for
extreme prairie cold, big day-night swings, and a short build season

Why it suits Saskatoon

UV-stable sealant and hinge coatings are the actual fix, paired with a custom cut for the older Nutana and City Park bathrooms that rarely run square. Freight still crosses the prairies from Vancouver or Prince Rupert on the standard multi-day route, so order ahead of the short May-to-July build season the same way you would for any other Saskatoon project.

Container-direct delivery into Saskatoon and central Saskatchewan.

How it ships to Saskatoon: Freight lands at the Port of Vancouver or Prince Rupert and rails across the prairies, a multi-day haul, so ordering ahead of the short build season absorbs it.

Common questions

Yes, more than most owners expect. As the sunniest city in Canada, a south-facing or skylit bathroom puts real UV on the sealant and hardware finish, so we spec both to hold color and grip under that exposure.
It does. Hinges and clamps expand and contract slightly with that swing, the same cycling that stresses a window seal, so we spec finish and fit for it rather than for steady cold alone.
That's most of the work. Neo-angle corners and odd-width alcoves are sized to spec, not selected from a catalog.
Yes. A skylit or south-facing enclosure gets UV-stable sealant and hardware finish specced for that exposure. Flag the window or skylight orientation in your brief so we match it.
