Bathroom Showers

Have you ever considered how much time you spend in the shower?  Let's say it's 10 minutes each day: multiply that by 365 days and then by 80 years- that gives you 292,000 minutes, or 4,866.66 hours of shower time by the time you turn 80 years old!  That's alot of time!  While many women like to take baths, they usually reserve them for when they have more time to soak in bubbles or oil: and there is nothing better than soaking in epsom slats when you have a backache. 

But as just about anyone will attest, the shower is the ideal fast and simple way to wash one's hair and body effectively and conveniently.  For many of us, the time we take for our all-important shower is when we plan our day or brainstorm ideas.  For others, its the time that we spend each day ( or evening) to relax, forget our troubles, empty our minds, and even sing a song out of earshot of the rest of the world!

Contact Reliable Glass & Door Corp. and one of our professionals can discuss with you the best option for your shower door.  We can even assist your contractor with the correct layout during a major remodel of your bathroom so your shower performs to your expectations.

Types of Shower Doors:

Pivot Enclosures
Pivot shower doors open out from a single side.  They are typically glass doors that encompass one of four sides of shower stall with rectangular or square dimensions.  Pivot shower doors are a good choice for homeowners with a taste for the simple and classic.

Sliding Enclosures
It's difficult to go wrong with this traditional model that can suit every bathroom, whatever the style of your home.  The sliding shower door accompanies rectangular spaces well, whether they are shower stalls or tub and shower spaces.  Sliding shower doors open and close via metal sliders located at the base of the stall.  This type is very popular and can be framed and frameless models

Folding Enclosures
Folding shower doors open and close in accordian fashion.  Difficult to imagine?  Picture the characteristic folds of a fan, each panel caving in at parallel intervals.  An alternative to sliding shower doors, folding shower doors are unique in that they can be left either open or closed for an enclosed shower or an accessible tub.

Frameless Enclosures
Frameless shower enclosures are just that.  Without panels or frames, they consist of uninterrupted glass that gives your bathroom a spacious look and feel.  Interconnected pieces are attached with unobtrusive hinges and usually open from a single handle.  This modern design can enclose a variety of spaces and is an ideal choice for custom designers.  This has become the most desired choice for a new shower enclosure.  Some water can escape with this type if the shower stall is small or water sprays towards the door opening.  Special seals are used to help contain water from passing through the enclosure.

Curved Enclosures
Not every shower stall consists of a perfect rectangle or square.  For stalls or tubs with one or more rounded corners, a curved shower door is necessary.  With versatile possibilities, curved shower doors come in a variety of styles and dimensions to suit every homeowner's needs.
