SHOWER DOORS
The ideal glass shower door depends on factors like the bathroom layout, desired style (modern vs. traditional), privacy needs, and budget. Proper measurement and professional installation are crucial for a watertight, functional shower enclosure.
GLASS TYPE
- Clear glass: Creates an open and airy look, making the space feel larger and brighter.
- Obscure/Frosted glass: Provides privacy with a slightly blurred or frosted effect.
- Patterned glass (Rain, Fluted, Etched): Offers decorative textures and patterns for visual interest while still allowing some light transmission.
- Tinted glass: Available in colors like gray or bronze tints for added privacy.
DOOR STYLE
- Sliding/Bypass doors: Two or more panels that slide horizontally, ideal for corner showers and space-saving designs.
- Hinged doors: Swing open like a standard door, suitable for larger bathroom layouts.
- Pivot doors: Rotate open from a central pivot point for easy entry/exit.
- Frameless doors: Sleek, minimalist look with no metal framing around the glass panels.
- Framed doors: Glass panels surrounded by a metal frame for added stability and structure.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
- Tempered safety glass: 5 times stronger than regular glass for durability and safety.
- Low-iron "Pure" glass: Reduces the greenish tint common in tempered glass for superior clarity.
- AquaGlideXP coating: Protective coating that repels water and minimizes cleaning needs.
- Door sweeps and seals: Prevent water leakage from the shower enclosure
