Updating your bathroom with Frameless Shower Doors

Is it time to revitalize your bathroom? An updated bathroom adds to your home's comfort, beauty, and value. Today's bathrooms, both small and large, have become havens of peace and calm, often minimalist in design with clean, minimalistic lines. As you consider that bathroom renovation, consider a frameless shower.

Frameless showers are precisely what the name says, large panes of glass that enclose a shower area. There can be a single-pane door, a double-pane sliding door, and panes on three sides. There are various ways that these frameless showers can be designed specifically for your home.

Something to think about: more and more people are taking the step of removing bathtubs from at least one bathroom and installing an extra-large shower space.

Here are a few things that we love about these frameless shower doors:

They can give a bathroom the appearance of more space. A glass door opens your bathroom by offering the ability to see the whole room. They have a modern, clean, elegant feel that moves a home closer to the personal spa appearance that is so popular.

They can come in a variety of glass designs that highlight aesthetics and privacy. While the transparency of the glass door is one of its biggest appeals, there are still doors that have elegant designs to offer privacy. The opaque glass door also offers the same minimalist appearance but a much greater degree of privacy.

A frameless shower door can open in or out. Compared to framed shower doors that only open out, these doors can open into the shower or out into the rest of the bathroom, meaning you have some flexibility when it comes to the size of your bathroom. They also come in sliding pane varieties.

Frameless doors are easier to clean than framed doors or mildew-prone shower curtains.

Bathroom renovations benefit the present as well as the future. Bathroom renovations can add substantially to a home's value, particularly frameless shower doors for the reasons listed above. That value is felt not just by future occupants of the home. Surveys show that more than 60% of homeowners who upgraded their bathrooms enjoyed their homes more and had a greater desire to stay in their current homes.
