Taking a shower after a long day can be highly relaxing. However, using a shower curtain to prevent the water from escaping the shower does not always work according to plan. Many shower curtains also limit the shower from remaining completely clean due to the mold and mildew that can accumulate when the curtain is not completely dry. Installing Custom Shower Doors in Santa Clarita CA is a good alternative to using a curtain.
Advantages for Installing a Shower Door
Shower doors can be made frameless or with a frame dependent upon the customer’s shower needs. Each style of door offers its own advantages. Listed below are the advantages of each type.
Frameless Glass Shower Doors
- Sizes. Frameless doors are available in any size. This allows the designer to have flexibility when designing the shower space.
- Light. Frameless Custom Shower Doors in Santa Clarita CA allow for more natural and artificial light to flow into throughout the shower. More light improves visibility for the person taking a shower.
- Space. Curtains and siding often make the room feel smaller than it actually is.
- Mold-free. Frameless shower doors do not have any seals around it. With a lack of sealing, water and soap are not able to build-up, eliminating mold and other bacteria from forming.
- Easy maintenance. Frameless doors are extremely easy to maintain and clean by use of a squeegee.
Framed Glass Shower Doors
- Effective. Framed shower doors are effective in keeping water where it is supposed to be. The seals that come with the door allow for the door to be placed anywhere without fear of leaks.
- Cost-friendly. Since framed door edges do not need to be polished, the cost to purchase and install a framed door is much more cost-effective than those that are frameless.
- Artwork. Framed shower doors offer a variety of decorative glass options allowing for a more custom feel to the room.
