What are the benefits of a shower door (enclosure) over a shower curtain?

First of all in regards to décor a transparent sliding door looks aesthetically pleasing. Shower enclosures give bathrooms a contemporary and sleek look. Having an enclosure gives a sense of space and with an array of options for frames they can tailored to suit a number of tastes, whether you’re going for a minimalistic look, trendy or frosted finish for privacy.

Having a glass shower door allows natural light to filter into your bathroom which makes the room a brighter and inviting space. Take advantage of windows and the natural light reflecting into your enclosure to help you cut down on your energy bills by using less artificial lighting and saving more costs.

Sliding enclosures also have fewer moving parts than hinged doors and the parts are more easily accessible to replace. Shower curtains attract a lot of mould and mildew build up, where as glass surfaces are easier to keep clean daily. This makes things more hygienic and better for your health. Shower curtain rails and rings also tend to rust, compared to shower enclosure frames which are more robust and made from stronger materials.
