What is a Glass Shower Enclosure?
A glass shower enclosure is a type of shower that uses glass panels to enclose the shower area, creating a sleek and modern look for a bathroom. The glass panels are typically made of tempered glass, which is a type of safety glass that is more resistant to breaking than regular glass. Glass shower enclosures can come in many different styles and configurations, including:
Framed: This type of enclosure has a metal frame around the edges of the glass panels for added support and stability. The metal frame can come in a variety of finishes, such as chrome, brushed nickel, or oil-rubbed bronze.
Frameless: A frameless shower enclosure has no metal frame around the edges of the glass panels, creating a clean and minimalist look. Instead, the glass panels are held in place by small metal brackets or clips.
Semi-frameless: This type of enclosure has a metal frame around the edges of the door or doors, but the side panels are frameless. This allows for a combination of stability and a more open feel.
Glass shower enclosures can also be customized with various hardware and accessories, such as towel bars, handles, hinges, and more. They can also be designed to fit a variety of bathroom sizes and shapes, including corner showers, walk-in showers, and alcove showers.
