If you’re replacing your shower doors, you may be considering doors that are frameless. These doors work perfectly in any size of bathroom and they actually make your bathroom appear larger. Before purchasing your Frameless Shower Doors in Naperville, read the frequently asked questions below.
Q.) What is the first step that I need to do before purchasing my shower doors?
A.) Before you order your shower doors, you’ll have to do some measuring first. Don’t measure until you have your wall material up as measuring beforehand could throw the measurements off. Measure the width of the opening and the height from the bottom of the opening to the top of the tile. If you have a tub in place, measure from the top base of the tub to the highest portion of the tub walls.
Q.) What types of glass are available for frameless doors?
A.) You have several glass options to choose from including clear, textured and patterned. Clear glass will make your bathroom appear more open and larger; however, many customers choose textured or patterned glass for privacy while in the shower. Shower doors are made to crumble into tiny chunks if broken, instead of large, sharp pieces that can be dangerous. Plexiglass is also available if you want a safer glass in your bathroom, because it will not shatter or break.
Q.) What are the benefits of a frameless door over ones that have a frame?
A.) Many people prefer the appearance of a frameless style over traditional shower doors that have a frame. Cleaning is quicker and easier because you only have to clean the glass and you don’t have to worry about trying to remove hard to clean water deposits from a metal frame. The thicker glass of frameless doors makes them more durable than a framed door with thinner glass. Frameless Shower Doors in Naperville are made with a tight seal, so you won’t have any water leaking out while taking your shower.
