What Are Frameless Neo Angle Shower Doors?

When you are ready to look for a replacement for your shower curtain, you should certainly consider frameless neo angle shower doors.  While traditional shower enclosures have doors that glide back and forth on a track, running parallel to the shower wall, the neo angle door travels parallel to the corner.

These types of kits come either trackless or with a frame and are actually pretty easy to install.  They are extremely modern looking, available in anyone's project budget and can be simple or decorative by using etched glass.  If you are someone who prefers a bit more privacy while you rae in the shower, you may want to opt for this etched or frosted option.

Space Saver

The biggest benefit of installing a neo angle enclose is that it saves on a ton of space and makes your bathroom look a lot larger.  Rather than squaring two glass panels off to build a corner shower, this variety features a glass door that is placed from the inner corner and two glass panels on both sides that allow the door to be at a 135 degree angle to the wall.

To seal and secure the panels, the glass is polished on an angle and then fitted to metal clips and hinges.  There is also a sweep at the bottom so you don't get out of the shower looking like you just had rain in your bathroom.

You will find that there are many neo design variations.  The door may be flanked with smaller supportive panels or the door placement could be created to move.  Alternatively, the panels may end at various levels of the wall as well.  These enclosures really maximize a small space and as a bonus, they are exceptionally easy to clean. 

Why Frameless?

Neo angle frameless doors have advantages and disadvantages from the framed variety.  Most homeowners do prefer the frameless look because it allows for an old glass appeal while satisfying the needs of nearly anyone's style preference from minimalist to sophisticated elegance.

Frameless showers do require more glass fabrication including a greater attention to craftsmanship in order to create a tight-fitting quality product.  Also, for structural integrity, these styles do require much stronger building blocks so not only is thicker glass required it is usually a more expensive better quality.

One of the greatest benefits of installing frameless neo angle shower doors is that they are by far the easiest things that you an have in your bathroom to clean.  What could be better than wiping off one large smooth surface rather than rigid areas or metal tracks that always attract mold and mildew?
