The bathroom is your private space where a rejuvenating shower can calm your nerves and also was away the grime of the day. Yet, today the bathrooms has also become an aesthetic space which must invigorate and please you yet be comfortable and practical.

One important functional and aesthetic element in a bathroom is the shower area, accentuated by a shower door. When discussing the choice of shower door with your family or interior designer, you must keep in mind the dimensions of your shower space, how much space exists between the shower and other fixtures, how much time you want to invest in daily cleanup, your lifestyle and your budget.

Here are a few options from which you can choose the shower door perfect for your shower:

Steel-framed door:

The steel-framed, sturdy custom-built shower doors are resilient and have a charm of their own. Available an assortment of prices and styles there’s also the benefit of framed shower doors helping to make a smaller space look lofty when taken all the way to the ceiling.

Frameless door:

A “frameless” shower enclosure uses sturdy tempered glass that does not require the support of metal around its exterior edges. The result is a clean-lined, modern look that is free of visual obstructions. One of the many reasons remodelers opt for frameless shower glass doors is how simple is their effortless maintenance. If your bathroom boasts of intricate tile designs and gleaming hardware the frameless shower doors provide an uninterrupted view of the aesthetics.

Semi-frameless door:

If you desire the contemporary look of a frameless enclosure but your layout and budget doesn’t allow it, a semi-frameless model can be a fine, striking alternative. It can come with components such as the permanently bonded hinges, solid handles and patented glass coating which will give it a classy, streamlined look.

Bypass door:

Sliding or bypass doors are a practical choice for narrow bathrooms with closely-spaced fixtures. Typically, they consist of two sliding glass panels that roll on tracks attached to the shower enclosure. The doors may simply slide in the tracks, or there may be mechanical rollers that assist the movement

Pivot door:

Pivoting shower doors—also known as swinging or hinge doors—open like a standard door and can be installed if you have a bigger bathroom. It opens by swinging in one direction on pivoting hinges, like a typical passage door. The door hinge can be attached to a stationary glass panel or the wall or shower surround and ends up giving a sophisticated look.

Folding door:

Folding or bi-fold shower doors are a good option when you’re looking for a wider walk-in opening but lack the space for a pivot door. Bath screens-bi-fold or tri-fold doors– consist of several glass panels. Normally one glass panel is fixed while two other panels fold in on hinges, a screen panels do.

Neo-Angle door:

For a small bathroom, a neo-angle shower door is a God-sent option. A corner shower door configuration cuts across the 90° angle created by a corner shower, possessing two smaller side panels running perpendicular to two side walls with the door centered between them. Usually, the door opens out into the room in a neo-angle door.

Steam door:

A steam shower door design packs the shower area from floor to ceiling and along all seams, allowing a shower to act as a steam room. This is done by extending the glass panels from floor to ceiling in the shower enclosure.

The steam door design can be made of solid glass panels with a hinged door that has an air-tight seal on built-in. The enclosure can have built-in movable panels above the door, called transoms, which function as vents.
