When it comes to choosing the right shower enclosure, there are a variety of choices available to you and the choice can seem daunting. To help you in such an important decision, NW Custom Glass, LLC is here to point out the basics in shower enclosure choices. A lot of it will depend on the size and shape of your bathroom, but following are the most common shower enclosure types to consider.
Original Frameless Shower Enclosure
When you think of frameless, it is often associated with luxury. These shower enclosures give any bathroom a light, airy feel. If you have a small bathroom, it can help it feel larger. Although, frameless shower enclosures are also a great choice for large bathrooms where you want the shower to be a statement piece.
Offset Quadrant Shower Enclosure
If you have a small corner for your shower and no other place to put it, a quadrant shower is the perfect choice. The come complete with sliding doors to help save valuable space in a small bathroom.
D Shaped Shower Stall
Sometimes the quadrant shower can seem pinchy to many adults. If you are looking for more space in the shower, but don’t have a lot more space in the bathroom, you can choose showers that D or P shaped to allow for more room while in the shower. They are still doable in small spaces as well which is an added bonus.
Single or Double Bypass Sliding Shower Doors
Another option for small spaces is a shower that features sliding glass doors. This allows you to place your shower in an especially tight spot because you don’t need the room for opening and closing the shower door. It also gives a smaller shower a modern look while still highly functional.
Hinged Shower Door & Panel
For bathrooms that have the space, hinged shower doors are beautiful. They traditionally swing outward and give your bathroom a modern spin. Their sleek, chrome finishes are classy and timeless. This is a common choice for bathrooms that can afford the space for the swinging door.
Bifold AKA Butterfly Shower Doors
Bifold shower doors aren’t the most common choice, but there are many bathrooms that they make sense for. If you don’t like the look of the full sliding door, this is another space saving option. You can choose this type of shower door no matter what shape or size your shower is which makes it pretty versatile.
Bathtub / Shower Combo
Some homeowners opt for a bathtub and shower combination to save space. In these cases, the sliding glass doors give them a classy finish and allow you to get rid of the shower curtain that gets covered in mildew over time.
