Types of Shower Doors

Sliding door

This type of shower door moves within the shower enclosure and doesn’t open either inwards or outwards. Sliding shower doors are a perfect selection for smaller bathrooms where you might need to conserve space.

This could be because the size of your shower enclosure or your bathroom doesn’t allow for a great deal of room to open or that the angle of a swing opening door would encroach on other elements of your bathroom furniture.

Bifold shower door

This door is made up of two sections and folds in half and slides out of the way to the side of the shower enclosure. It is again, a good selection for smaller bathrooms and also for those shower enclosures that are on the tighter side.

Pivot shower door

This shower door is secured in two places on one side and swings outwards, allowing you to step into the shower and then close the door behind you, thus saving you space when gaining access to the shower, this type of shower is a better selection for bigger bathrooms with larger floor space.

Other

Other glass shower doors available, include the curved glass door. Depending on the shape of your separate shower enclosure, or even if you are just looking to add a door onto your existing bath/shower, a curved glass door can be tailored to fit your specific space and add to the aesthetic.

Glass shower doors will able to help you utilise your bathroom space whilst still making your shower enclosure look bigger and more elegant.

Can I replace just the shower door?

Yes! Shower doors are simple to install, and it saves you the hassle (and money) when you replace just the door instead of the whole enclosure.

Knowing which door type is right for you is all about knowing your bathroom and what you want. There are several things to consider when it comes to choosing your perfect shower door:
