After a stressful day, bathroom space can be your lifesaver. A well-designed enclosure is just as important as its functionality. Modern glass shower enclosures are a focal point in your bathroom. They also enhance the beauty of the space. There are many options for shower screens and curtains. But nothing can match the elegance and style of a modern glass enclosure.
These are just a few reasons to have glass shower enclosures installed in your bathroom.
Adds a unique style statement
Glass shower enclosures can make small bathrooms appear larger.
You can enjoy the luxury of living without worrying about maintenance
Glass shower enclosures can be made to order
Shower Enclosure Positioning
The location of the shower enclosure is crucial for its functionality. It can be placed in any location, depending on how big or small the bathroom is. These are the most popular positions for the shower enclosure.
Corner shower enclosure
The most popular position for installing an enclosure is a corner shower enclosure. Because it can fit in the corner, the enclosure takes up less space and makes the bathing area appear larger than it is.
Shower enclosure with recess
Recessed shower enclosures have a reputation for being space-saving. Installing a recessed shower door enclosure in your bathroom is the best way to make it work.
Back to wall shower enclosure
Wall enclosures are an option if your bathroom space is small or narrow.
What are the most common types of shower enclosures available?
There are many types of shower enclosures that you can choose.
Enclosure in square glass
Rectangle glass enclosure
Quadrant glass enclosure
Framed glass enclosure
Frameless glass enclosure
Types of glass doors for shower enclosures
Hinged shower door
The hinged shower doors are suitable for rectangular and square shower enclosures. These doors are ideal for large bathrooms with wide openings. These doors are usually installed in frameless shower enclosures.
Pivot shower door
Pivot shower doors can be opened inwards and work in the same way as hinged doors. Pivot doors are not compatible with hinged doors. They require a framed enclosure to operate.
Enfold shower door
Enfold shower doors save space and allow the doors to open within the enclosure. Because it requires less space to operate, it can work well in smaller bathrooms.

Bifold shower door
Bifold shower doors can be another option for those with limited shower space. These doors can be folded on themselves by using a joint in their glass doors.
Walk-In shower enclosure
An open-space, glass panel called a walk-in shower enclosure can be installed in the shower area and allows for easy access to the bathing area.
How do you measure for a shower enclosure?
Do not worry if your lack of technical knowledge is a problem. Use basic measuring tape, and pay attention to numbers.
You will need a measuring tape, a pencil, and paper to measure the shower enclosure.
Make a sketch of the shower enclosure that you envision and think about what it will look like.
Measure the wall's width from one end to the other.
To find the final number, take 3 measurements and average them.
For precise numbers, divide the wall into top-, middle- and bottom measurements.
Measure the height of the enclosure from the base to where it will be installed.
Measure the width of the door opening. It is important that you pay attention to every measurement. A slight error could result in a huge loss.
Glass shower enclosure installation
This is the complete guideline for installing a shower enclosure.
Begin by cleaning the floor and walls where enclosures will be installed.
You must ensure that the glass enclosure is accurate in size.
Place hinges on the wall, and mark it with a pen.
Install hinge anchors and drill holes in the wall.
Fix the hinges to the glass panels, align them with the holes drilled in the wall and screw them together.
The rest of the panels can be installed following the same procedure. Place all panels correctly.
Finally, place the shower door in its correct position and make sure it works properly.
