Residential Case Study

Frosted Doors and Shower Glass in a New Oakville Home

Oakville, ONNew Custom HomeJune & July 2026

This new custom home in Oakville had clear glass interior doors and a frameless glass shower. Beautiful, but with no privacy where it mattered. We frosted the glass in the double doors and added a frosted band across the shower at body height, leaving the top clear.

What We Did

Frost Where It Matters
