Shower doors
How you get in and out.
The door decides how much space you need in front of the shower, and how easy it is to get in, out and clean.
- Needs swing room
- Hinged, pivot
- No swing
- Sliding, bifold
- Between walls
- Inline
- Easiest to clean
- Hinged, pivot
The basics
Doors that swing need clear floor in front of them. Doors that slide or fold don't, but have tracks and joints to keep clean.
How to choose
In this section 5 pages
Hinged door
Swings open on hinges. Needs room to open outwards.
Pivot door
Turns on a pivot near one edge, so it needs a little less room to swing.
Sliding door
Slides along a track. Good for tight rooms.
Bifold door
Folds in on itself to open, saving space.
Inline door
A door with a fixed panel alongside, between two walls.
