Back-to-Back Glass Shower Door Handle

Installed through the glass, not into the wall. A back-to-back handle bolts a matched pair of pulls to either side of an 8–12 mm tempered glass panel — no wall drilling, no adhesive, and no visible fixing from outside the shower. Square-section stainless tube, mirror-polished or brushed, in five standard lengths from 200 mm to 600 mm, with length, hole spacing and finish made to your drawing on request.

Why Frameless Back-to-Back Mounting

A shower door has no frame to screw into, and no one wants a bracket on the tile. Back-to-back mounting solves both: two Ø12 mm holes in the glass carry the entire load, and both faces of the door get a usable pull.

The fixing stays hidden. From outside the shower you see a clean bar against glass; the through-screw and the inner handle sit on the wet side where they belong. Soft washers are fitted on both faces so metal never touches glass directly — the single most common cause of cracked shower panels.

Because the load path runs through the glass rather than into a wall stud, the handle can be positioned exactly where the door swings and exactly at hand height. Nothing needs to line up with anything behind the tile.

Specifications

Dimensions are standard reference values. Confirm hole centres and glass hole Ø against your own drawing before production — these two figures determine whether the handle fits at all.

Which Stainless Steel Belongs in a Shower

Showers are not a dry environment. Constant humidity, soap residue and chlorinated water are actively hostile to metal, and the material choice is the difference between a handle that still looks new after five years and one that blisters.

SUS 316 is the right default for shower enclosures, spas and any permanently wet or chlorinated space. The molybdenum content is what holds up where 304 eventually struggles.

SUS 304 is a sound, lower-cost choice for normal bathroom use — residential doors, hotel guest rooms, and any installation that is wet but drains and dries.

Chrome-plated zinc alloy should be specified for interior, dry applications only. It is a legitimate material at its price point, but long-term wet exposure can lead to blistering and plating lift. We will tell you this before you order rather than after — if your project is a shower, choose stainless.

Finishes

Colour matching against a physical sample is available on request.

Custom Manufacturing (OEM / ODM)

This handle is built to order, not picked off a shelf. What we can change:

Length from 150 mm to 1200 mm. Hole spacing to your drawing. Tube section and wall thickness. Material — SUS 304, SUS 316 or zinc alloy. Surface finish, including colour matching to your sample. Your logo laser-marked on the tube or on the mounting block. Packaging — your own gift box, your own instruction card, your own language.

Send a drawing or a physical sample and we will quote against it. If you have a mould already, send the drawing and we will work to your dimensions.

Ordering and MOQ

What Comes in the Box

Every set ships as a matched pair: outer handle, inner handle, two hex-socket through-screws sized to your glass thickness, two soft washers, and one hex key. Custom gift box and printed instruction card available on request.

Installation in Three Steps

Drill the glass

Two Ø12 mm holes at your hole centre distance, in 8–12 mm tempered glass. Holes must be drilled by the glass supplier before the panel is tempered — they cannot be drilled afterwards.

Fit the through-screws

Pass the hex-socket screws through the glass with one soft washer on each face. Screw length is matched to the glass thickness.

Align and tighten

Offer up the inner and outer handle, then tighten both screws with the supplied hex key until the mounting blocks seat flat against the washers. Do not overtighten.

FAQ

What is a back-to-back shower door handle?

It is a handle supplied as a matched pair — one pull on each side of the glass — joined by screws that pass through two holes drilled in the panel. It is the standard fixing for frameless glass shower doors, because there is no frame to mount to.

What glass thickness does it fit?

8 mm to 12 mm tempered glass. The through-screw length is matched to your glass thickness, so tell us the panel thickness when you order.

Should I choose 304 or 316 stainless steel?

316 for shower enclosures and any permanently wet or chlorinated environment. 304 for normal bathroom use where the surface drains and dries. Zinc alloy only for interior, dry applications.

Can you make a custom length or hole spacing?

Yes. Lengths from 150 mm to 1200 mm, and hole spacing to your drawing. Send us a drawing or a sample and we will quote against it.

What is your MOQ?

500 pcs per size and finish as standard. We accept a first order from 250 pcs so you can check quality before committing.

How long is the lead time?

30 to 60 days from order confirmation, depending on quantity, finish and whether the order is a repeat or a first run.

Can you mark our logo?

Yes — laser marking on the tube or on the mounting block. Send vector artwork.

Can we use our own packaging?

Yes. Custom gift box and your own instruction card, in your own language.
