Whether you need a custom shower door, window repair, or commercial glass, our process is designed to make your project easy, clear, and stress-free.
A Simple, Clear Process From Start to Finish
At DeMotte Glass, we believe great craftsmanship starts with great communication. That’s why we’ve built a simple, organized process that keeps you informed from the first estimate to the final installation. Whether we’re installing a frameless shower door, replacing fogged window glass, or upgrading a storefront, our team follows a precise system built over 30 years of serving Northwest Indiana.
We want every customer to feel confident, taken care of, and excited about the finished result.
Step 1

Request an Estimate
Tell us what you need, send photos, or schedule a measurement.
We’ll review your project, answer your questions, and explain next steps clearly — no pressure, no sales gimmicks.
What helps us give the fastest estimate:
- A photo of the opening or damage
- Rough measurements (if you have them)
- Your location in Northwest Indiana
On-Site Measurement
(For Shower Doors & Windows)
Once you’re ready to move forward, we schedule an on-site measurement.
Our technician takes precise measurements, checks structural details, and walks you through:
- Glass thickness & hardware options
- Layout or door style
- Hardware colors (matte black, chrome, brushed nickel, etc.)
- Timeline & expectations
This step ensures your glass is custom-cut exactly for your space.
Step 2

Step 3

Glass Fabrication
After the measurement, we order your custom glass.
Every piece is:
- Cut to size
- Tempered for safety
- Polished & processed
- Built specifically for your project
Nothing is off-the-shelf.
Everything is tailored to fit your home or business perfectly.
Typical turnaround: 1–3 weeks depending on the project.
Professional Installation
When your glass arrives, we schedule installation and bring everything we need to complete the job cleanly and efficiently.
Our installers:
- Protect floors and surfaces
- Perform clean, precise cuts & fits
- Seal and secure all hardware
- Check every line, level, and detail
- Clean the glass so it sparkles
We don’t rush. We don’t cut corners. (But again... we do cut glass.)

Your satisfaction is the final step — and it matters to us.
