Explore Different Shower Door Options for Your Bathroom Remodel

Are you looking to get your shower remodeled? While most homeowners spend more time looking through replacement shower options, there's also a wide variety of shower door types to consider as well these days, which can have a drastic effect for your entire bathroom.

Luxury Bath of Central Florida is a seasoned bathroom remodeling company serving the regions around both Tampa and Orlando that has earned hundreds of 5-star reviews from customers throughout Central Florida for our high-quality installations and products. When it comes to shower doors, the perfect fit for your bathroom will depend on your personal preferences and bathroom layout.

Consider Which Type of Opening Works Best for You

Nowadays, shower doors come in a wide variety, and depending on the size and layout of your specific bathroom, the type of joint your door operates on can make a huge difference in your space. For example, if your bathroom airs on the smaller side, something like a sliding door will save space, because you don't have to open the door into the room in order to get inside. 

Some other door entry types to consider include:

  • A hinged shower door is a classic option that is attached to your bathroom wall and swings open for you to step inside.
  • Your new shower will open seamlessly with a pivot door, which swings open on a hinge.
  • Save on space with bi-fold shower doors that open up into your shower instead of the rest of the room.

Barrier-Free Shower Doors and Doorless Showers

For minimalist look and appearance, many homeowners opt for either a barrier-free shower or a doorless entry for their bathroom remodel. Both of these options feature a singular, fixed door panel near the shower head to stop water from spraying out into the rest of the room, but a barrier-free shower sits flush with the rest of the bathroom floor, making it an excellent option for folks with limited mobility.

A doorless shower option doesn't necessarily have the low threshold, but still features an open-concept design that makes any bathroom feel more spacious and modern.

Framed Versus Frameless Shower Doors

Every type of shower door available is going to be either framed or frameless. A framed shower door features a type of metal, typically stainless steel, aluminum or something similar, around the glass panels. These doors are more of a standard, but can be harder to clean. 

Frameless shower doors can elevate the aesthetics of any bathroom. Featuring no or very little metal, these doors give a minimalist appearance and create a spacious feel. At Luxury Bath of Central Florida, our frameless shower door systems can be customized through glass options like rain or obscure, and by selecting a finish for the small amount of framework that is present, including: 

  • Brushed Nickel
  • Chrome
  • Oil-Rubbed Bronze

Our shower enclosures and doors come in standard sizes, but can also be customized to meet the exact measurements of any bathroom, ensuring that a shower remodel with Luxury Bath of Central Florida will always be exact.
