Shower Doors Buying Guide


Shower Doors

Getting Started

Eliminating water from splattering from the shower unit throughout the bathroom, shower doors are functional…yet can be an aesthetic of design. Many shower doors can be installed by handy do-it-yourselfers, but more complex and larger units may require a professional installer. Understand the options.

What to Consider

Types

Framed or Frameless

Glass

Cost Considerations

Size - The larger the glass panels and the more of them, the higher the cost.

Frameless doors are more expensive than framed due to the thickness of the glass required.

Frame material on framed units can increase the cost - specify platinum frames and the price escalates.

Installation by a professional will increase the cost.
