Which shower doors should you choose?

Shower doors usually serve either as a standalone closure for a dedicated shower area, as an over-bath screen, or simply as part of a shower enclosure. Each of these solutions has its pros and cons.

Shower doors are usually used as a standalone closure for a dedicated shower area, as an over-bath screen, or simply as a component of a shower enclosure. All of these solutions have their pros and cons.

Many people choose to set aside a shower area in the bathroom without partitions or doors, but that is not a particularly comfortable solution. Water splashes practically all over the room, as does steam, which settles on the surfaces of furniture and other fittings. When the shower area is enclosed, steam and water are much less invasive. In addition, doors provide a sense of privacy, so it is better not to dispense with them.

Classic hinged shower doors open outwards, although you can sometimes also find models that open inwards and pivoting ones. They are wide and quite convenient. They can be single-leaf, right- or left-handed, as well as double-leaf — symmetrical or asymmetrical. They are striking and attractive, which is why their popularity shows no sign of waning.

Pivot doors open outwards, but need less space than hinged ones, because they rotate around their own axis. As a result, when opening, part of the door tucks inside the enclosure. Sliding shower doors are also fairly popular. They consist of one, two or three panels and slide along tracks. Single doors open to one side, while the others open to both sides. They are practical and allow you to save a considerable amount of space in the bathroom.

There are also folding shower doors, also called accordion doors, which are usually used for over-bath screens. They are made up of several panels that fold into a characteristic concertina when opened. They do not take up much space and work well in almost all cases. They are recommended above all for small rooms.

Shower doors are most often made of glass that has undergone special processing, making it safe and convenient to use. Glass is both an aesthetic and functional solution. Thanks to its simple form and spatial qualities, it looks good in any bathroom. It pairs well with all kinds of interior design schemes and more besides. It is a universal, practical material. The range available on the market is also growing steadily, with manufacturers offering ever more colours and patterns to choose from. In addition, the glass used for shower doors is easy to keep clean. Just wipe it with a cloth and a little detergent from time to time.
