Should You get a Frameless Glass Shower Door?

Nov 13, 2014

If you’re updating your bathroom you have likely noticed that there are dozens, if not hundreds of different options for every little feature of the room. From toilet seats to sinks to faucets it seems like you have a decision to make on every area. For some of them, the decision doesn’t really matter, but for others it can be pretty important. For most people, one of the most important things to consider is the shower door.

You can choose from a wide range of different shower doors types and styles, so make sure you take the time to really think it through. If you’re looking for a beautiful, long lasting option, you may want to consider a frameless shower door in Brooklyn. These are very popular and will help give your bathroom an attractive and elegant look.

What is a Frameless Shower Door?

If you’ve never seen a frameless shower door before, it might sound a little odd. To put it simply, it is just like any other shower door that you’ve seen, but rather than having the metal frame around it to provide support, it is all glass. It attaches securely to your wall, leaving a nice clean look. Since it uses strong framing bolts to stay in place, the door will be strong enough to last for years without a problem, and keeps its beauty extremely well.

Of course, it is essential that these types of doors are installed properly or you will run into a lot of problems. Here at The Prime Glass, we have helped hundreds of families in the Brooklyn, NYC, Queens, Bronx, Staten Island and Long Island areas with this type of installation, and we would be happy to help you as well.

Why Choose a Frameless Glass Door?

For most people, the biggest reason for going with this type of shower door is because it looks so nice. It has an elegance that you simply can’t get from a traditional door, and certainly not from a curtain. In addition to that, however, you’ll also love it because it is so easy to clean. Simply take your normal window cleaner, and wipe it down when it needs it. In most bathrooms, the door will dry on its own without leaving spots or other items, so you don’t have to clean it too often.

The door is also going to be nice and sturdy, which is often surprising to people. Many people mistakenly think that because there is no frame that it will be more delicate. The fact is, however, that the glass is actually thicker and stronger than is used in most framed in shower doors. To accommodate the weight, the door is expertly secured to the wall so that it will be held in place securely without any problems.
