Choosing a Shower Door
Adding a shower door to your bathroom is one of the easiest ways to upgrade its appearance without extensive renovation. There are endless options for shower doors available in the market, and choosing the right one can be challenging. Ultimately, it all comes down to your budget, requirements, and taste. We recommend the following steps to help you make a decision:
-
Door type: Does your shower have a tub? If yes, you will require a tub shower door. If you don't, a regular shower door will do.
-
Swinging or sliding: A sliding shower door will give you more space if your bathroom is small and crowded. Swinging or pivoting shower doors are suited to corner showers and toilets with ample space.
-
Glass texture: You can add a touch of design to your bathroom by choosing a glass texture that meets your needs. You might opt for patterned glass for added appeal or clear glass for a clean and classic appearance.
-
Frameless or framed: The last step in choosing a glass shower door is deciding whether you want it framed. This choice depends entirely on your taste. Framed shower doors are seen as more traditional, while frameless ones can add sophistication.

Framed vs. Frameless Glass Shower Doors
Choosing between framed and frameless glass shower doors is an important decision that affects both the appearance and functionality of your bathroom projects. The best option depends on your overall design goals, space limitations, budget, and long-term maintenance expectations. Below is a breakdown of each style to help you make an informed decision:
Framed Glass Shower Doors
Framed glass doors feature a metal framework—typically aluminum—around the edges of the glass panels. This structural support makes them a practical and accessible choice for many households and commercial spaces.
-
Sturdy and supported: The metal frame adds strength and stability, reducing the risk of movement or misalignment over time.
-
More budget-friendly: Framed doors are generally less expensive than frameless alternatives due to lower material and installation costs.
-
Flexible installation: They can be installed in bathrooms with a variety of layouts, including those that are slightly uneven or non-standard.
-
Higher maintenance around edges: Over time, the metal frames can collect water, soap scum, and mildew, requiring more attention during cleaning.
Framed systems are ideal for clients seeking a reliable and economical solution that still provides a polished look.
Frameless Glass Shower Doors
Frameless glass doors offer a sleek, modern aesthetic by eliminating the metal framing. These doors are made from thicker, tempered safety glass to ensure durability and structural integrity.
-
Minimalist appeal: Frameless designs offer a clean, open look with minimal hardware, making them popular in contemporary and upscale bathrooms.
-
Low visual interference: With fewer visible lines and no bulky edges, frameless doors help highlight tilework and enhance the sense of space.
-
Easier to clean: Without frame edges to trap residue, frameless doors are generally simpler to maintain—especially in hard water environments.
-
Precision installation required: These systems demand accurate measurements and skilled installation to ensure proper alignment, watertight seals, and safety.
Although typically more expensive, frameless glass doors are often chosen in both commercial and residential settings for their aesthetic value and ease of cleaning, both options use tempered glass, but frameless doors generally require more robust hardware to secure panels.

Three Excellent Ways to Use Glass to Upgrade Your Bathroom
It’s incredible how a few upgrades using glass can change the whole look of your bathroom and add significant resale value to your home.
Add glass shower doors:
If you like style, glass shower doors are a must. They will make your bathroom look bigger and trendier. There are many stylish options to consider. You can add a glass door to your tub/shower combo, and glass shower doors can also be installed in any angled space. There is no risk of water leaking or mildew accruing, as in the case of shower curtains. Glass shower doors are also easier to clean. In short, a glass shower door will make your bathroom look bigger and brighter. If you use it in conjunction with a large mirror, your bathroom will look much more spacious.
Install big mirrors:
Adding a big mirror to your bathroom is one of the best ways to brighten the space and make it look bigger. It can also be a decorative piece that ties the whole room together, especially if you use a stylish mirror, such as a rounded mirror or a mirror with a fancy frame. Add LED lighting or lamp fixtures next to the mirror for more pizzazz. If you get a framed mirror, make sure it’s labelled as water-resistant or moisture-resistant. Mirrors will perfectly complement your glass shower doors.
Frost your windows:
Frosted windows are a great option to let in natural light while simultaneously wanting privacy. If your bathroom doesn’t have windows, adding one can be an excellent way to get more natural light and open the space up. Windows also help ventilate the bathroom. You could go with a half-and-half option: frost the bottom half of the window but keep the top part clear.
