There’s going to come a time in your homeowning life when you’re going to remodel your bathrooms.

From flooring to sinks, to the type of tub that you’ve got, there’s always more work to do in a bathroom. One of the more crucial decisions you’ll have to make is regarding your shower doors.

At Atlantic Glass, we’re huge proponents of glass shower doors and enclosures. In this post, we’re going to discuss a few of the countless benefits that glass doors provide over shower curtains and help to give you an idea of which type of doors might suit your bathroom.

Life’s too short to feel uncomfortable in your shower. Go with glass doors and you won’t regret it.

Why Shower Curtains Aren’t Cutting It Anymore

The simple truth of the matter is that shower curtains are a thing of the past. They don’t keep the water contained and the result usually ends up being damage to your walls and floors. If you’re afraid of mold and mildew appearing in the dark corners of your bathroom, then you need to go with glass.

Aside from the danger of mold, you might even be susceptible to some leaking and flooding with old-style shower curtains. If you’re remodeling an older house, there are always cracks and crevices that water can get into, so it might end up affecting your other rooms as well.

The Many Benefits of Glass Shower Doors

Glass shower doors don’t just look better than shower curtains, they do a better job of protecting your walls and your privacy. Here are some of the other benefits that you’ll see when you install a glass shower door from Atlantic Glass:

  • They allow a flow of light that you can’t get with a shower curtain. This is important if your daily routine includes shaving and getting ready while you shower.
  • Glass shower doors can actually make your bathroom seem larger. A closed shower curtain completely blocks off all of the sightlines, but with glass, you can let the room breathe a little bit. When you’re dealing with a small bathroom, this perk is invaluable.
  • Shower curtains are hard to clean, so most people don’t even bother doing it. Glass shower doors can be sprayed and wiped down with a cleaner like with any other surface in your bathroom. This way, you can be more hygienic in the place where that matters the most.
  • You’ve also got a lot of flexibility when it comes to size. Our glass shower enclosures will come specially fitted for your tub, so you don’t have to worry about figuring that out yourself.
  • You only have to buy it once!

You Know What to Do

The choice is obvious. If you want the cleaner, more attractive, and easier option for your bathrooms, get glass shower doors. Contact us today at Atlantic Glass to get a quote or consult with one of our dedicated professionals and turn your bathroom into a place that you love instead of a place you tolerate.

    I like how you said that glass showers make your bathroom feel larger. My husband and I are renovating our bathroom. We will have to look into installing a glass shower.

    It’s awesome that you mention that glass shower doors are very easy to clean. I’d like to be able to spend less time cleaning my bathroom, so I’m considering buying some glass shower doors for it. I’m going to look for a good business in my area that can sell me some glass shower doors.

    It never would have occurred to me that glass shower doors can actually make your room feel larger. It seems like it would be a good idea to have a glass shower door in your bathroom if you live in a home that has limited space. A bathroom that feels more open in a smaller home will keep you from feeling claustrophobic.

    My older sister and her husband are renovating their master bathroom and they need to decide on the type of shower that they want. I loved learning about how glass shower enclosures can help to make your bathroom seem bigger which is beneficial for small bathrooms. I will have to recommend that my sister and brother-in-law invest in a glass shower.

  7. Shammy Peterson

    It sure was nice when you said that glass shower doors make your bathroom appear larger. As you said, this perk is invaluable for small bathrooms. My husband and I find our bathroom crowded and too small for us, especially after replacing our old bathtub. We would like to find a way to maximize the area while making it look bigger and brighter, so we will consider hiring a pro that could install shower glass doors for us.

    I loved that you said that glass shower doors could let the room breathe a little bit and make your bathroom seem larger. With this in mind, I will consider hiring a professional that could install shower screens for us. We have a pretty small bathroom, and my children often complain about it looking so overcrowded and cramped. Thanks for sharing this.

    It was an eye-opening moment for me when you said that mold and mildew can build up if you’re not using a glass shower screen. I also think that these screens are timely and very modern-looking, so I’ll definitely consider getting one for my main bathroom. That being said, I’ll try to look for the best, quality ones near my area.

    I found it interesting when you said that glass shower doors could make your bathroom look larger because it allows all of the sightlines. My husband and I are planning to renovate our bathroom because our two children always complain it is too overcrowded. Maybe, we can consider having a shower glass door replace our old shower curtain before this month ends.

  13. Shammy Peterson

    My favorite part of your blog is when you said that you can make your bathroom seem larger when you install glass shower doors. With this in mind, I will consider finding a supplier of frameless glass shower enclosures so our bathroom could somehow look visually bigger than it originally is. One of my plans is to have our bathroom renovated since everyone notices how outdated the overall design is, so I will surely include your tips on things that I will consider.

    I had a mold problem last week because of my shower curtains, so to prevent this from happening again, I have decided to replace them with a new glass shower enclosure instead. It’s good to know that glass shower doors are much easier to clean and maintain compared to shower curtains since they only need to be sprayed and wiped down, which can help make our bathroom more hygienic. I’ll keep this in mind while I look for a glass company to hire for our shower enclosure replacement soon.

  20. Elina Brooks

    I’m getting my bathroom remodeled next month, so I have decided to also get a glass shower door to replace our old shower curtains. I’m thankful you affirmed that the replacement is a good choice since glass shower doors are easy to clean since we can just spray and wipe them down to keep them hygienic. I’ll take note of this while I look for a glass company to hire for the installation soon.
