What Are the Benefits of Frameless Shower Doors?

Frameless shower doors are a popular option for homeowners looking to enhance the overall look of their bathroom. Unlike traditionally framed enclosures, frameless glass showers use clean, uninterrupted glass to create a minimalist, modern feel. This sleek look instantly modernizes the bathroom's overall look and feel, creating a true spa experience. We often recommend frameless shower doors to homeowners at McDowell Glass who are looking for a sleek, high-end look.

Benefits of Frameless Shower Doors

Make The Restrooms Big and Open

There are pretty significant perks to frameless shower doors. One is how much they open up a space, and you don’t have any of that visual chaos. Whereas clear glass unencumbered by any impediments allows light to travel freely, and that openness precludes the sense of confinement often associated with a small bathroom. This is particularly useful in smaller bathrooms, where an open, bright feel can make all the difference in comfort and practicality.

Easy Maintenance and Cleaning

With frameless doors, it is easy to keep the doors clean. There are no metal frames or tracks for fewer places where soap scum, mold and mildew can collect. Routine cleaning is fast and easy, keeping the bathroom looking beautiful by reducing replacement cycles.

Durable and Long-Lasting Construction

Shower doors are constructed of thick, tempered safety glass and the shower floor is built with durable acrylic and fiberglass material. Whether you already have a door and just need us to install it or you would like new glass doors installed by experts like those at McDowell Glass, these can be quite durable. Without metal framing, rust or corrosion is also a thing of the past allowing for long-term performance and reliability.

Adapts To Any Shower Arrangement

Every bathroom is different, and without the use of frameless glass doors can be customized like never before. Whether you have a walk in shower, corner enclosure or custom design, frameless glass can be made to fit your measurements exactly. Made to measure for the perfect fit, ease of use and a refined finish.

Improves Light and Visibility

Frameless shower doors also help bring light into a room, making the room appear larger and more inviting. This extra visibility makes the bathroom seem lighter and more inviting aside from there being additional safety. The see-through glass provide a full view of shower to minimize dreary dark areas and shadows.

Adds Value to Your Home

Frameless glass shower doors are generally considered to be a higher-end bathroom feature, and can improve the resale value of your home. As a result, many consumers are attracted to their modern design, durability and low-maintenance. Frameless shower glass is an investment that improves daily comfort and adds both immediate and long-term value to a property.

Professional Installation Ensures Best Results

Although frameless shower doors have multiple benefits, installation is key. Precise fit, secure mounting, and professional sealing is what we guarantee for every light. After all, selecting an inexperienced company to install your frameless shower door could be risky as you want this expensive feature to work well and look beautiful for years.
