Shower Door Prices in Los Angeles (2026): Prefab Kits vs. Custom Glass
Most shower door pricing online hides behind “call for a quote.” Here are the real numbers for the doors LA Materials Direct sells and installs across Los Angeles — what a pre-fabricated kit costs, what it costs installed, and when a custom door makes more sense.
The pre-fabricated kits
These are stock kits in the standard 60x76 size. The installed price covers the kit and the installation. Custom-made doors are priced differently — see below.
| Kit | Glass | Kit only | Installed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-frameless double slider | 1/4″ panels | $329 | $749 |
| Single-slide frameless | 3/8″ clear tempered | $529 | $879 |
| Double-slide frameless | 3/8″ clear tempered | $549 | $949 |
| Single-slide frameless, frosted | 3/8″ frosted tempered | $629 | $979 |
Finishes: matte black, gold, brushed nickel, or chrome.
Prefab kit or custom door?
- Pre-fabricated kits are the fast, fixed-price option. If your opening fits a stock kit (60x75 semi-frameless, 60x76 frameless), you know the whole price up front — no surprises.
- Custom doors are made to order for your exact opening: swing doors with inline panels, 90° returns, pony walls, out-of-level openings. They are priced per job after measurement, never off a stock list. Our shop rule: a door is cut 1/2″ under the opening height, a fixed panel 1/8″ under — that is the clearance the hardware needs to swing and seal right.
What affects the price
- Glass thickness and style — 1/4″ semi-frameless vs. 3/8″ frameless, clear vs. frosted.
- Layout — a single slider is one moving panel; a swing door plus fixed panel, a 90° return, or a pony-wall section adds glass and hardware.
- Hardware finish — matte black, gold, brushed nickel, chrome.
- The opening itself — out-of-level walls and floors push a job from prefab to custom.
- Old door removal — always separate, never included (see below).
Measuring comes first
No guessing and no free drive-outs. Send us a photo of your shower and the opening width at the top, middle, and bottom. The measurement visit is $85, paid up front — and it is credited toward your install if the door fits.
Old door removal is separate
Removal is never included in the installed price. It is $100 when added to an install, $150 as a standalone trip. Removing glass is dangerous work: the tile underneath has to be inspected for damage and cleaned, and damage from old glass never cleans 100%. When you pay for removal, we take the old door out and leave it at your home for your trash pickup — we do not haul it away. Stated up front, because it matters: we do not repair damaged tile, including damage from the previous installation’s drilled holes, and we are not responsible for scratches, paint damage, or stains from the previous installation that do not come off the tile.
Warranty, in plain terms
Our workmanship warranty covers installation, fit, and alignment. Seals and door sweeps are wear items — they are never warrantied, on any job.

FAQ
What is the difference between a prefab kit and a custom door?
A prefab kit is a stock 60x76 door at a fixed price — $749 to $949 installed depending on the configuration. A custom door is made to order for your exact opening and quoted per job after measurement.
Can I buy just the kit and install it myself?
Yes. Kit-only prices: semi-frameless double slider $329, single-slide frameless $529, double-slide frameless $549, frosted single-slide $629.
How long does a custom door take?
Custom glass is made to order once your measurements are locked in — fabrication typically runs 2–3 business days before it is ready to install.
How do I pay?
All major credit cards are accepted (a 3% processing fee applies), Zelle, or bank transfer with no fee.
