304 stainless steel frameless shower door hinges connect tempered glass doors to walls or adjacent glass panels while maintaining a compact architectural appearance. AODSON supplies 90°, 135°, 180°, and drawing-specific configurations with coordinated clamp plates, gaskets, fasteners, movement characteristics, and decorative finishes.

Glass Interface and Hinge Geometry
Reliable operation depends on the complete enclosure geometry: glass thickness and tempering, door width and weight, hinge quantity and spacing, fixed-panel support, wall structure, cutout shape, hole edge distance, gasket selection, plate flatness, fastener torque, and alignment. Hinge drawings and glass templates should be approved together before fabrication.
Design and Ordering Considerations
Provide the desired opening angle, door handing, glass-to-wall or glass-to-glass arrangement, return position, door weight, glass thickness, cutout template, enclosure clearances, and wet-area exposure. Confirm whether the hinge must self-center, hold at a stop angle, or swing freely. Decorative finish samples should be approved under the intended lighting.
Key Product Features
- Compact frameless design for contemporary shower enclosures

Typical Applications
- Residential frameless shower doors
- Hotel, apartment, and hospitality bathrooms
- Glass partitions and wet-room enclosures
- Custom architectural glass door assemblies after engineering review
Door Weight and Safety Requirements
No universal door-weight rating should be inferred from appearance or nominal plate size. Capacity depends on hinge design, material, glass dimensions, hinge count and spacing, wall or fixed-panel support, fasteners, cutout geometry, installation quality, movement cycle, impact, and required safety factor. Tempered glass and hardware must comply with applicable project and building-safety requirements.
Quality Control and Inspection
Inspection can include material verification, plate dimensions, hinge-axis alignment, movement and return behavior, fastener fit, gasket completeness, surface finish, color consistency, corrosion checks, and packaging protection. Approved samples, dimensional reports, material certificates, and project-specific cycle or load tests are available when specified.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can these hinges be supplied for 90°, 135°, and 180° layouts?
Yes. Wall-to-glass and glass-to-glass configurations can be reviewed for these common angles or for a drawing-specific enclosure geometry.
What glass information is required before ordering?
Provide tempered-glass thickness, door dimensions and weight, cutouts, hole positions, edge distances, hinge spacing, fixed-panel support, and the approved glass template.
Can the color and surface finish be customized?
Yes. Satin, polished, dark, gold-tone, rose-tone, bronze-tone, PVD, and project-specific finishes can be evaluated. Final appearance should be confirmed with an approved sample.
