"So what makes us different from other shower door companies?"
 We are manufacturers- our frameless enclosures are fabricated 100% at our facility- allowing us greater design freedom, higher quality control and faster turn around time. We have invested in technology and education to ensure our enclosures are the finest available.
ATM is staffed by glazing industry professionals. From our office staff to our field technicians. All of our technicians have had a minimum of 15 years field experience, most are 2nd or 3rd generation glazing mechanics. Our company not only provides installations, we are also glazing consultants- working with engineers, designers and architects.
We offer true frameless shower enclosures, modeled after the original European design- but adding the functionality needed for the American bath.
ATM will not cut corners by using aluminum constructed hardware for a frameless enclosure, all of our fittings are constructed using solid brass construction hardware to ensure proper operation of the enclosure and above all, safety.
We offer the area's widest variety of specialty glass and hardware options for frameless enclosures.
Our frameless shower enclosures are measured, designed, engineered and installed by our company- we do not use a shower door that "comes out of a box". This allows us: greater amount of design freedom, product testing using CAD software to ensure proper operation and safety for the application being used, a faster lead time and more competitive price! We are also NOT subjected to a 3rd parties idea of acceptable flaw- we set our own HIGH standards for quality.
Our ability to meet our client's unique needs has allowed us to be featured in many popular trade publications. Our projects have been spotlighted in Dwell Magazine, LX.TV (NYC), NBC (channel 4-NYC), Westchester Home, The New York Times and the popular international glazing industry company, C.R. Laurence.

Think you're getting a "deal" on your frameless shower door?
...why all Enclosures are not created equally

At ATM, we do not believe in cutting "corners" by using inferior materials for your frameless enclosure just to offer our clients a "discount" or to make a larger profit on our enclosures. Making use of hardware that is aluminum constructed versus brass or using thinner glass than what should be used for structural security puts your safety at risk! Yet there are less than ethical companies out there practicing this very tactic every day.
All of our frameless shower enclosures utilize solid brass fittings for structural security- remember, a frameless shower enclosure makes use of minimal hardware; it is crucial that all hardware that is used is designed for use in a heavy glass frameless shower enclosure and is capable of carrying weight. Materials such as aluminum are far too soft and light to carry the weight of heavy glass (3/8" or 1/2" glass)- especially in the operating parts of the enclosure (ie. door), and over time, it is likely that the hardware will fail. Remember, most likely your enclosure will be used every day, subject to wear and tear.
In addition, all of our enclosures are designed using industry specific CAD software that ensures your enclosure is constructed meeting and most often exceeding governmental safety regulations.
A frameless shower enclosure, when installed by a professional glazier will offer years of beauty, safety and trouble free operation.
Always be sure to ask for specifics for your shower enclosure. A reputable company will not have any trouble spelling out construction details in writing and will take the time to discuss the components of your shower enclosure.
