Upgrade Your Bathroom With a 48in Shower Door

If you’re looking to upgrade your bathroom, consider outfitting it with a glass shower door. They’re available in a variety of dimensions, colors, and finishes to suit your aesthetic preferences.

When measuring your shower stall, make sure to measure twice—once at the left and once at the right. This measurement will help you determine the best size of shower door for your space.

Frameless

Frameless 48inch shower doors are an excellent choice if you want to create a sleek and modern bathroom. They can be installed in many different styles and designs, ensuring you can find the perfect fit for your needs.

They are easier to maintain than framed shower doors. The crevices in a frame can collect soap scum and moisture over time, making it harder to keep clean.

The lack of a frame also makes them less likely to crack or break over time. They are also easier to repair or replace if something goes wrong.

This 48inch frameless sliding door features premium 3/8 thick tempered glass and deluxe full-length clear seal strips to prevent leakage. It’s crafted with sleek chrome finish hardware to add a luxurious touch to any bath or shower.

Sliding

When you want to make a small space feel larger, a sliding 48inch shower door is a great option. They allow you to create a sleek and modern look in your bathroom while also making the shower or tub more accessible.

Sliding doors also come in a variety of different glass styles, handles, hardware finishes, framing thicknesses and more. All of these options can help you find the perfect fit for your new shower or tub enclosure.

CON: Framed sliding doors are harder to clean since the bottom metal track where the rollers sit can accumulate soap water, grime and rust. The tracks can also stick if you don’t regularly clean them.

Framed

Framed 48inch shower doors have a heavy-duty aluminum frame around the glass panel, securing it to the wall. They’re a great option if you want to upgrade from a shower curtain, and they add a modern touch to your bathroom.

They’re also easier to clean than framed shower curtains because they don’t collect soap scum, mildew, or other grime. They also offer a sleek look that coordinates with other bathroom fixtures.

You can choose from a wide range of design styles, sizes and configurations with framed shower doors. They’re available in a variety of finishes, including frosted or tinted glass.

They’re a great option for any bathroom style, and you can even upgrade to a sliding model if you’d prefer. They come with a variety of features, including pivots and side-mount hinges that allow you to open and close the door from either direction.

Custom

When it comes to custom 48inch shower doors, there are a number of different options available. Some features to consider include the glass, handles, and framing.

For example, some shower door models feature a tempered glass panel that is much stronger than regular glass. This helps prevent the door from shattering into sharp, jagged pieces that could cause injury.

Another option is a frameless shower door with dual sliding panels. This style is ideal for larger bathrooms, as it can save space by not using a rail or frame round the edge of the shower.

Other features to look for in a 48inch shower door include its opening direction and the hinges that are used to open it. Hinges can be attached to the exterior edge of the door, so it opens traditionally, or they can be set several inches in along the top and bottom of the door.
