Frameless glass shower enclosure

Shower Doors in New York.

A pre-war bathroom rarely offers a square opening to begin with, so the real spec question for a New York shower enclosure is the room's actual angles, not the water chemistry most other cities worry about.

In short

New York's water is soft, so glass etching is not the local problem the way it is in a lot of other cities, the local problem is a pre-war bathroom that was never built to hold a standard-size shower stall. Crateworks cuts every enclosure to the room's actual angles instead of the other way around.

Built for New York’s climate

Steam heat and a small, often unventilated bathroom footprint mean a New York shower runs humid, which fogs glass and puts real moisture load on hardware over time, so corrosion-resistant hinges and clamps still matter even without hard water in the mix. The bigger issue is the room itself. A pre-war bathroom rarely offers a square, standard-width opening, an offset drain, an angled wall, a genuinely tight footprint are all normal here, and a stock shower kit does not fit most of them.

Why it suits New York

The value here is almost entirely in the measurement, not a coating upsell: a neo-angle corner squeezed into a five-foot pre-war bathroom, or an offset drain nobody built square to begin with, gets built to that exact geometry rather than sold as a redesign. It still ships fast, freight comes through the Port of New York and New Jersey right in the metro, so the custom cut doesn't cost real time over a standard order.

Common questions

No, not the way harder water elsewhere does. The bigger factor here is humidity and a tight bathroom footprint, which is what we spec the coating and hardware around.
That is most of what we quote. Offset drains, angled walls, and genuinely tight alcoves in older New York bathrooms are sized to spec, not selected from a catalog.
Corrosion-resistant hinges and clamps, specced for the humidity a tight, often unventilated bathroom holds onto rather than a finish coat over standard steel.
That's common work here. A five-foot-by-seven-foot pre-war bathroom with an offset drain still gets a full custom measurement, not a scaled-down stock unit.
