Frameless Shower Enclosures | Anderson Glass Contractor
Frameless glass shower enclosures, be they corner or not, have only glass as their supporting mechanism, which supports their whole weight. Frameless glass shower doors have more width to them as compared to other shower systems. But these are not used as much compared to frameless ones. The frameless option is commonly used in most showers because of its incredible strength from using thicker glass. They have a thickness of 10mm or more. Shower enclosures with frameless or semi-frameless shower door screens are the best choice as they do not occupy much space, are durable, and last a long time.
Although frameless showers do not physically increase the space occupied, the lack of frame makes it look that way. It is beautiful in its simplicity and is an excellent choice for showing off a particularly unique or intricate shower design.
Though they look amazing in their simplicity and elegance, they are water-resistant, not waterproof. One should have no problems around straight fixed glass panels because they are sealed with a high-quality, durable mildew-resistant silicone. But for around the door area and a transom, water can leak with a direct spray of water if you have any.
