The
CRL Petite Series offers a complete range of hinges for frameless shower doors using 1/4" (6 mm) to 5/16" (8 mm) tempered safety glass. Designed for maximum configuration flexibility and design freedom, the Petite Series includes three hinge types:
- PET044 Wall Mount Flush Back Plate Hinge (PET044BN) — wall-mount offset back plate keeps all mounting screws inside the shower for a clean exterior sight line, ideal for modern frameless shower door installations.
- PET181 Glass-to-Glass Hinge — mounts a door to a fixed panel in a 180° plane and allows a full 180° outward swing.
- PET182 Glass-to-Glass Hinge — allows a full 180° inward swing.
Petite hinges feature mitered edges with curved corners for an upscale look and have hinge plates that are 25% thicker than competitive hinges, reducing deflection and providing greater holding power — a key differentiator for durable frameless shower door hardware.
