Glass Shower Door Sticker shock - any reasonable recs?

I’m at the end of a long bathroom reno & was just quoted 6.7K on a door, panel & satin brass hardware. Yikes. Hoping to find someone that does good work but who is a little bit more reasonable. Any good recs would be much appreciated!

I used Bear Glass 10 years ago and they came back and re-traded on the price (i.e., “We made a mistake with the quote. It really should have been $X higher. We cannot do it for the original price.”). The increase was significant. We came to some agreement and their work was fine, but I don’t know that I would go back to them for that reason.

Used them twice….way way cheaper than anything I’ve found in Manhattan, glass only though (we purchased out tap hardware through Home and Stone in Brooklyn).

That’s crazy, I actually just did a beautiful bathroom Reno and I was able to buy my shower glass from Lowe’s and all of my hardware from wayfair
