Profile
‘U’ profile in a 3″ length: a 1″ x 1/2″ D-section bar with both ends returning to the glass. One size only. Five finishes: Brushed, Polished, Matte Black, Satin Brass PVD and White, matching the full-length JWL glass door handles and towel bars.
Installation
Thru-glass mount with connection hardware included; the matching back cap closes the reverse face so the inside of the door stays clean. Optional color-matched or split-finish backplates are sold separately. DWG, 3D and PDF spec sheet downloads are on the page for setting hole positions.
Care
Rinse and dry after showering; clean with mild soap and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads, bleach and chloride cleaners on stainless or coated finishes.

Frequently asked
Is a 3-inch handle big enough for a shower door?
Yes for a swing door that is not heavy. The 3″ U gives a two-finger grip and stays clear of the door swing and adjacent fixtures. If you also want a towel rail or a full-hand grip, choose the full-length U, I or J glass door handle in 18″, 24″ or 30″.
What glass thickness does it fit?
This handle fits 3/8″ and 1/2″ (10–12 mm) tempered glass; gaskets are included. Holes must be cut before tempering — do not drill tempered glass. Send the CAD and PDF spec sheet to your glazier before the glass is ordered.
Can it be installed on both sides of the door?
This item is single-sided: one handle on the outside and a matching back cap on the inside. For a grip on both faces of a glass swing door, order the back-to-back glass door handle set.
Which finishes are available and do they match other JWL hardware?
Brushed, Polished, Matte Black, Satin Brass PVD and White, the same five finishes used across JWL door handles, cabinet pulls and backplates. Backplates can be ordered color-matched or as a split finish.
How fast does it ship and what is the warranty?
In-stock orders ship in 1–3 workdays from Vancouver, BC, to Canada and the US, free on orders over $500. Limited lifetime residential warranty on materials and workmanship (commercial: 5 yr brushed stainless, 2 yr coated). Full terms: jwlhome.com/warranty.
