A pivot door swings on a top-and-bottom pivot rather than side hinges, giving a clean frameless look for a simple alcove — no side panel needed.
Built frameless in tempered safety glass, fabricated in our own Ottawa shop and professionally installed.
Select a configuration, enter the measurements that apply to that layout, then choose glass and hardware options. This keeps the original Centennial workflow while making it easier to expand.
A frameless pivot door is a single glass door that rotates on a pivot hinge at the top and bottom rather than side hinges. The pivot point lets a larger, heavier panel swing smoothly, making it a good fit for a wide, frameless opening.
A hinged door pivots on hinges fixed to a wall or panel along one edge; a pivot door turns on a pin set slightly in from the edge, so part of the door swings inward as the rest swings out. Pivots handle wider, heavier glass and give a distinctive, high-end look.
Yes — most frameless pivot doors are set to swing both ways, which makes entry easy and keeps water inside the enclosure. We confirm the swing and pivot position for your space before fabricating.
Every enclosure is made from thick frameless tempered safety glass, paired with your choice of hardware finish — chrome, brushed nickel, matte black and more — and matching hinges. For help deciding, see our custom shower cost guide.
We install more than 1,000 showers a year, with every piece cut and fabricated in our own Ottawa shop. As one customer told us: “Stephane installed our shower door today and we couldn’t be happier with the workmanship and his attention to detail.” — Garry Nicholas, 5★.
