What Are Frameless Shower Doors? - Frameless shower doors are made of thick tempered glass panels (usually 3/8" or 1/2") without the bulky metal framing found in traditional enclosures. They’re held together by discreet clips, hinges, and channels, giving your bathroom an open, seamless look.

They’ve become increasingly popular in modern and minimalist bathroom designs for a reason: they’re stylish, easier to clean, and customizable for any layout.

How to Choose the Right Frameless Shower Door

1. Measure Your Shower Space Accurately
   Measure width, height, and wall angles. Ensure your walls are plumb and thresholds are level for a proper fit.
2. Choose the Type: Sliding, Hinged, or Pivot
   • Sliding frameless doors save space—perfect for smaller bathrooms
   • Hinged/pivot doors offer a wider, more open entry but require clearance
3. Glass Thickness & Style
   • Standard thickness is 3/8" tempered glass for safety and strength
   • Clear, frosted, or smoked? Choose what fits your privacy needs and style
4. Hardware & Finish
   From brushed nickel to matte black, finishes matter. Bakiwhs offers rust-resistant stainless steel hardware that complements any decor.
5. Installation Type
   DIY or pro? Frameless shower doors require precision. We always recommend professional installation for perfect alignment and sealing.
