Ideas To Upgrade Your Shower Doors
Shower doors are an item in the home that tends to be ignored during upgrades and renovations. You may change the entire bathroom but leave the glass shower door just like it is. Over time, you will likely think about changing the shower door or making changes that do not require the purchase and installation of a new door. Here are some custom options that you can have done by a glass contractor to your current shower doors.
Frosted Glass
If you want a sense of privacy, you may be considering how to do that without getting rid of your current glass shower door. This is especially an issue for many people that have a full glass-enclosed shower where there are clear vision lines to the entire shower area. If this sounds like your situation, you can consider frosted glass. Your glass contractor can apply a frosted layer to your glass. This will give you a frosted privacy screen that will allow you to still see out of the shower and will not degrade the glass shower enclosure in any way. It can also be easy to clean with a simple mild glass cleaner or detergent and water.
Pattern Glass
In your plans to upgrade your bathroom and do a renovation, you may find you want to create a theme across the room. For example, you may want to go with an Asian spa theme. This could mean the use of bamboo themes or other themes such as cherry blossom trees or lotus. You can continue the look from your sinks, stained glass windows, or wall art to the shower glass by using a similar pattern on the glass. These patterns can be etched into the glass or applied with a sturdy scratch-proof professional decal. Your contractor can apply the decal to the glass, or they can etch the design into the existing shower door.
Tinted Glass
Tinting glass may bring to mind car tinting and car window tinting. The truth is you can have a similar practice done to your glass shower doors and enclosure. This tint can give a different look to the room depending on the color you choose. You can go with a colored tint that matches the theme of your bathroom. You can also go with a grey level of tinting that will give you a darker shower enclosure. This can help provide some privacy or just give a layer of color pop to the room.
These ideas are just a few of the ways you can keep your current shower doors but also end up with a custom shower door. If these ideas appeal to you for your bathroom upgrade, contact your local glass contractor. They can help with the shower door, the custom options you want, and with any questions you have about maintaining the upgrades.
