  • Glass Walls for Basements/Additions: Bringing natural light into darker areas or creating distinct zones without solid barriers.

Why Choose Quality Shower Doors?

Quality shower doors enhance aesthetics and functionality. They create a distinct shower enclosure, preventing water spills and adding a touch of sophistication. Investing in durable, high-quality glass ensures longevity and easy maintenance. Glass Distribution San Diego provides expert installation for a flawless finish.

• Frameless Shower Doors: These offer a minimalist, open feel with no visible metal frames, often using thicker glass.
• Semi-Frameless Shower Doors: Featuring minimal framing around the edges, these provide a good balance between a framed and frameless look.
• Framed Shower Doors: These traditional doors have metal frames around all sides of the glass panels, offering robust support.
• Sliding Shower Doors: Ideal for spaces where a swinging door might interfere, these doors slide open along a track. This category includes:
  • Bypass Sliding Shower Doors: Two or more panels that slide past each other.
  • Barn Door Style Shower Doors: A single, large glass panel that slides on an exposed top track, mimicking a barn door.
• Pivot Shower Doors: These doors swing open from a pivot point, usually located at the top and bottom of one side.
• Hinged Shower Doors: Similar to a traditional entry door, these swing open on hinges mounted to a wall or another glass panel.
• Bi-Fold Shower Doors: Consisting of two panels that fold inward, ideal for maximizing space in smaller bathrooms.
• Neo-Angle Shower Doors: Designed for corner showers, these doors feature three glass panels forming an angled enclosure.
• Fixed Panel Shower Screens: While not a “door” in the traditional sense, these are single, stationary glass panels that create an open walk-in shower without a swinging or sliding door. They can be combined with a small swinging door for a partial enclosure.

Transform Your Bathroom with Shower Doors

Imagine a stunning, custom-designed shower. Our shower doors can make this a reality. We specialize in all types, including barn door style, framed, and frameless options. Our team ensures a perfect fit and seamless operation, transforming your bathroom into a personal oasis.

• Enhanced Safety: The thick, tempered glass used in frameless shower doors is highly durable and designed to shatter into small, blunt pieces if broken, significantly reducing the risk of injury compared to standard glass.
• Modern Elegance: Frameless designs offer a sleek, minimalist aesthetic that instantly updates and modernizes any bathroom, creating a spa-like atmosphere.
• Increased Home Value: The sophisticated look and durability of frameless shower doors are attractive to potential buyers, making them a valuable upgrade that can contribute to a higher resale value for your home.
• Easier Cleaning and Maintenance: Without the metal frames, there are fewer crevices for soap scum, mold, and mildew to accumulate, making cleaning quicker and more efficient.
• Spacious Feel: The transparent nature of frameless glass allows light to flow freely, making the bathroom feel larger, brighter, and more open.
• Customization Options: Frameless shower doors can be custom-designed to fit unique shower configurations, sizes, and angles, offering unparalleled flexibility in design.
• Reduced Visual Clutter: The absence of bulky frames creates an uncluttered look, allowing the beauty of your tile work and fixtures to take center stage.
