Frameless, semi-frameless, framed, sliding, pivot, bifold and fixed-panel doors compared for look, fit and water control.
Shower doors range from simple to showpiece. Frameless doors use thick tempered glass and slim hardware for a clean, open look, but they need exact measurements and walls that are close to plumb. Semi-frameless doors add a slim frame on some edges, giving a sleek look with more tolerance. Framed doors have a full metal frame and are the most forgiving of uneven walls. Sliding bypass doors suit tubs and tight spaces where a swinging door would hit a vanity, and pivot doors swing both ways for wide or corner openings.
Fixed glass panels, with or without a door, create open walk-in showers and help control splash. Hardware finish, glass type and seals all affect looks and performance. Standard sizes are quicker to get, while custom glass fits unusual openings and gives a designed look. In Nashville, many bathrooms are older and not perfectly square, so we measure carefully and tell you which style suits your opening.
