Shower Doors in Toronto.

Frameless tempered glass shower enclosures custom-sized to your opening, for GTA homeowners and builders who don't want a standard stall dropped into a non-standard bathroom.

In short

A shower alcove tucked into a converted Victorian ensuite, common across Cabbagetown and Riverdale additions, is rarely a standard width, and Toronto's humid summer air means a poorly sealed frameless door holds moisture at the gasket longer than a dry climate ever would. Crateworks custom-cuts the glass and specs a coating built for that lingering humidity.

Built for Toronto’s climate

Humidity works against shower glass differently here than it would in a dry climate. Toronto's summer air stays humid enough that water sitting on the glass and at the door seals takes longer to evaporate, which gives mineral spotting and, worse, mildew at the gasket more time to set in than a drier climate allows. A factory-applied glass coating cuts that lingering-moisture buildup down to a wipe instead of a scrub, and a properly ventilated enclosure matters more here than in a dry-climate install. Older Cabbagetown, Riverdale, and Beaches houses that added an ensuite bathroom decades after the house was built also rarely left a perfectly square alcove, and a Yorkville condo ensuite often has the opposite problem, a footprint too tight for a standard stall at all.

Why it suits Toronto

Most of what gets quoted here is a non-standard cut: a neo-angle corner squeezed into a converted Victorian ensuite, a barn-style opening, or a Yorkville condo alcove too narrow for anything off a shelf. Sourcing direct means that custom cut is a spec line, not a redesign fee. Send the alcove dimensions and glass finish through /brief and the quote comes back sized to that exact opening.

Common questions

It does, in the opposite way a dry climate would. Moisture sits and lingers at the seals longer in Toronto's humid summer air, which gives mildew more time to take hold, and we spec a factory-applied coating and proper ventilation specifically to counter that.
That's most of the work. Neo-angle corners and odd-width alcoves in a converted Cabbagetown or Riverdale ensuite, or a too-tight Yorkville condo footprint, get sized to spec, not picked off a shelf.
Corrosion-resistant hinges and clamps, specced the same way as the glass coating, built for Toronto's sustained summer humidity rather than a finish coat over standard steel.
Usually not if it's a straight swap in the same alcove, but a lot of these Victorian ensuite installs, Cabbagetown and Riverdale especially, involve reframing an opening that was never square to begin with, and that can trigger a permit. Confirm with your municipality before the glass gets ordered.
