CRL launched three new luxury shower hinge lines for frameless shower doors.

Expanding its portfolio of low-profile hardware for frameless shower enclosures, CRL is adding three new hinge designs: Bellagio, Como and Lugano. Each shower hinge has been tested to 100,000 cycles, five times the industry standard for performance testing. Rigorous testing is designed to ensure operation in both residential and commercial environments.

The shower hinges feature matching brackets and snap-on covers that conceal the screws. The new shower hinges are available in four finishes: matte black, brushed nickel, satin brass and chrome.
