Less is more when it comes to frameless shower doors What are the advantages to going frameless? Frameless shower doors provide a simple and sleek option that enhances the look of your bathroom and is easy to clean. Why are they called "frameless shower doors"? The term frameless shower door is used in reference to the glass used in both sliding and pivoting shower door applications. Frameless shower door glass is generally 1/4" or greater in thickness. Comes in a wide range of options that include textured glass, clear glass or glass that includes some type of silk-screened pattern.
The 1/4" frameless glass gives the shower a more open and luxurious look. The weight of the 1/4" glass gives the door a solid feel and helps in the smooth performance of the rollers.

Create Your Shower DoorWith proper cleaning and maintenance you should expect many years of beautiful service from your new shower enclosure. First, if you are considering a new, frameless shower enclosure, we strongly recommend using ShowerGuard glass, which has a built-in surface protectant and warranty.
Once you have a new glass shower, here are a few tips for keeping it squeaky clean: Do Not Clean New Showers Allow 24 hours for the silicone to dry before cleaning or using the new enclosure. Apply a Glass Surface Protectant We recommend applying Invisible Shield renewable surface protectant to new glass, and re-applying every several months as needed. Remember to Squeegee, Especially Hard Water Use a Cleret Shower Squeegee to remove excess water and soap after each shower. Allowing hard water to remain on the door could damage the glass or metal hardware over time. Use Non-Abrasive Cleaners and Sponges We also recommend Soft Scrub with Lemon used with a Scotch Brite (blue) non-abrasive scrub pad to remove tough stains without scratching. Do not use cleaners that could scratch the glass or damage metal finishes. Do NOT use the following cleaners: Vinegar or vinegar-based cleaners Steel wool or Teflon pad To order your Invisible Shield surface protectant and a Cleret Shower Squeegee, please call Drexler at (404) 351-4141.
Is ShowerGuard or other glass clear coatings worth the ~30% upcharge for keeping shower doors and walls clean/clear with little m We're looking at getting a tub shower glass door for one bath and a frameless for another bathroom shower. We've been quoted about 30% more for ShowerGuard and similar coatings and want to know if it is worth the cost for low maintenance clear glass. We dont have hard water, and we're in Chicago.We're looking for experiences and usage opinions. Do you have the same question? Home>Remodeling - Kitchen & Bath What I always ask my customers regarding this question when remodeling bathrooms is how good they will be about maintaining and cleaning the new bathroom, especially when the old bathroom is obviously neglected. If you are one of those people who wipes the glass down after a shower and cleans your bathroom every week or two you really don't need to spend the extra money. If you are at the other end of the spectrum and clean it when it finally bothers you enough it may not be a bad investment.
I've had customer tell me they can tell a difference compared to their old glass without it and others say it made no difference at all. Answered 4 years ago by Todd's Home Services We have 2 kids, girls, always taking a shower. Including friends who come and go, our shower gets heavy use. All we do is make people wipe down the chrome and glass doors. The shower is fiberglass. I do have to spray a bleach mix once in a while on the silicone seal and the sliders to remove mold but it's no biggie. Our regular shower door glass is low maintenence because we clean as we go. It's a habit that has to be developed but it really doesn't take more than a minute at the end of a shower. It certainly costs substantially less than having a company sell you "low maintenance". They still have to be cleaned. Where do you save?Once every few months I spray on Lysol Tub n Tile to take off anything built up on the doors while I'm cleaning the rest of the shower. My glass doors are over 15 years old, has very little corrosion on the aluminum frame and look nearly new.
My glass looks clean. Can that company guarantee the same for their cost? We live in Peoria, IL and have very hard water.I paid a premium for my ShowerGuard shower door because I live in a hard water area, Silver City, NM. I have had the door for about a month. It does not get a direct stream of water, but splashes and it gets squeegeed. The door has water spots like crazy. I went to the website and tried a few other suggestions, still spotted. I spayed on the color-changing kaboom, waited a few minutes and scrubbed with a magic eraser, then wiped with a paper towel. Got most of it. So much for low maintainance. Answered 1 year ago Thank you for the showerGuard response. Does anyone know about DiamonFusion? Shower guard was fairly expensive. After our experience with Shower Guard, I would NEVER recommend them. Our glass shower door had a large circle on it when it was steamy (probably from a suction cup). When I contacted Shower Guard, they recommended that I use a special cleaner to see if that helped (it didn't).
