Glass Showers:
Framed vs. Frameless

There are three key questions to consider when deciding between a framed shower and a frameless shower:

  • Aesthetics - How is your new shower going to fit into your existing bathroom or your planned new bathroom?
  • Maintenance - How easy is the shower to clean and how often should it be done?
  • Cost - Will this break the budget for your bathroom renovation?

Aesthetics

Your new shower should complement the rest of your bathroom, working with the other elements in the room to complete a harmonious look. For instance, a chrome finish framed shower complements chrome bathroom fixtures quite well while a frameless shower would tend to blend into the background. On the other hand, a frameless shower will highlight tile or stone work in the bathroom while a framed shower tends to overwhelm these accents.

Maintenance

Frameless showers are much easier to clean than their framed counterparts. With nothing to work around other than the shower hardware, the doors and enclosure walls can easily be wiped down. Framed showers, however, require more frequent cleaning to ensure there is no water sitting in the frame which can cause deterioration over time.

Cost

When it comes to price, frameless showers tend to be a bit more expensive due to the way in which they are constructed. With no other support other than the glass, the bond between panels is crucial. Also, the panes of glass in a frameless shower tend to be slightly thicker to support the weight of the enclosure. The vast configuration options of the frameless shower will increase the cost of the enclosure as well. Additional work must be done to fabricate steep angles and curves that are not possible with framed showers.

Shower Protection Coating

EnduroShield Protective Glass Treatment:

Protective Coating for Glass Shower Doors & Enclosures

Protect your glass shower with EnduroShield, and spend less time scrubbing and cleaning. EnduroShield is a long-lasting protective coating designed to help protect against stains and other shower build-up. Clayton's Glass highly recommends this excellent feature as it adds to your glass shower investment and cuts down on maintenance time. With EnduroShield you can't go wrong!

An Invisible Shield for Beauty that Lasts

Your new glass shower door from Clayton's Glass comes equipped with an invisible protective barrier built right into the glass. This shield helps your new glass shower repel water, oils, salts, minerals, and chemicals left from soap and shampoo residue. The naturally repellant surface eliminates the need to scour your glass shower with rough pads and harsh chemicals. Instead, your invisible shield makes shower cleanup a breeze with a simple light application of water and a mild detergent applied with a cloth.

No more nasty buildup or scrubbing required

Plus, the natural repellant properties of the shower glass coating make it nearly impossible for mold and bacteria to take hold, leaving your shower clean and germ free!

In the past, this type of protective shield for your shower glass was applied just prior to installation, leaving a much weaker bond between the coating and the glass. This older method of coating was not nearly as strong as today's options and was easily rubbed away through regular cleaning. Today, shower glass coatings are part of the manufacturing process which results in a much stronger bond that will easily last 10 years or more without showing signs of degradation, or a reduction in its water, oil, and chemical repelling properties.
