Glass railings and showers in Pegram

Yes. Frameless glass railings and balustrades go on patios, balconies and decks as well as interior stairs. The company describes a glass railing as a barrier that stays safe and sturdy while keeping the space open, and outdoors that means nothing between the seating and the view.

Each railing is measured on site, so the panels follow the actual run of the deck edge or stair. The glass is tempered, and there are no pickets to paint or replace. For a Pegram house with a back deck or a second-floor balcony, it’s the option that keeps the yard in sight. See the details on the glass railings page.

A railing is quoted free after the visit, like every other job. If the deck or stair is new construction, the builder can get the edge ready for glass, and we coordinate with them on timing.

Thickness and weight. Both are tempered, and both are used for frameless shower doors because heavy glass carries its own structure without a metal frame. The 1/2″ glass is heavier and stiffer and gives a more substantial feel when the door swings; 3/8″ is lighter and easier on the hinges.

Glass thickness is one of the four things that set a shower price, along with the size of the opening, the glass type and the hardware finish. Steve recommends a thickness once he’s seen the opening and the wall it hinges from. Every layout we build is on the frameless shower doors page.

Either thickness takes the same range of hardware finishes, from matte black to chrome and oil-rubbed bronze.

It doesn’t change the work or the process. Pegram is 27.8 miles in a straight line from our showroom at 103 Tennessee Way in Hendersonville and 15.9 miles from downtown Nashville, in Cheatham County. The consultation and the installation both happen at your house.

The free in-home consultation is usually available within a few days of your call, and our hours are Monday through Friday, 8 am to 5 pm. Shower glass takes about two to three weeks to fabricate after the final measure, and the install runs one to five hours. Pegram is a small town: the Census Bureau put it at 2,071 people in 2020 and 2,038 in its 2024 estimate.

Steve follows up after the install, the same as he would for a job down the street from the showroom.
