When you’re remodeling your bathroom, it can be easy to overlook the importance of your shower door. While it might seem like a minor upgrade, the right shower door can elevate your bathroom from ordinary to luxurious. At St. Louis Glass Works, we offer a wide selection and would love to help you find the right door for your project!
Types of Glass
One of the first things you want to decide on is the type of glass. Clear glass is the most classic option. Not only will it never go out of style, clear glass gives you an opportunity to show off your shower’s tile work in a way opaque glass might not.
On the other hand, an opaque glass will provide you with an extra layer of privacy. Textured glass comes in various styles and provides less transparency than clear glass. Frosted and tinted glass will provide a similar effect while allowing you to choose a unique look to suit your project.
Frame versus Frameless
Deciding on whether or not you want a shower frame for your bathroom is crucial! A frameless shower door will give the room a modern, sleek feel. With a frameless shower, you can either choose a doorless, walk-in style or a door that opens by pivoting. A walk-in style will require more space but will give your bathroom an extra hint of drama. A pivoting door offers clean lines and is most impactful with clear glass.
Selecting a shower with a frame is a more traditional option. Shower frames can give you that perfect farmhouse feel while still allowing a touch of modernity. You can choose a shower frame with the same finish as your bathroom’s accents to tie it all together. Framed showers also work well with any type of glass, so whether you choose tinted or clear, you’ll be covered!
