Sliding Shower Doors

Modern Sliding Shower Doors

Sliding shower doors, also known as rolling shower doors or alcove shower doors, allow for easy access to your shower without compromising the space in your suite. They're a perfect solution when complementing a corner or alcove shower enclosure. Our selection of sliding glass shower doors is the ultimate in space efficiency.

These shower doors function on quality door rollers. The door moves along rails when it’s opened and closed.  The door handle is also functional as you can use it as a towel rack. 

There are many different ways to fit a sliding shower screen door. It’s typically fitted onto a shower tray and is suitable for a recessed space. You can fit it onto a special shower floor or straight onto a waterproof tiled floor. You can also customise the height of the doors and side panels to match the dimensions of your bathroom.

The best feature of contemporary sliding shower screen door designs is they come with concealed fixings. Durable soft-closure mechanisms ensure easy open/close operations. The shaped track inners provide extra smooth door action. The neat, streamlined design and translucent seals prevent stray water splashes from landing outside the shower enclosure.

Bathroom City offers a wide range of sliding shower doors in various sizes - 900mm-1200mm along with a wide range of Shower Enclosures and Complete Shower Sets, to complement your purchase.

1. What Is a Sliding Shower Door?

Unlike conventional doors that swing open/close on hinges, a sliding shower door slides along tracks.

A sliding shower door typically has two glass panels. One panel is fixed while the other moves along a sliding metal track across the stationary panel.

Compared to other shower door types, sliding glass doors need a wider space for installation. You can install them with standalone showers, corner showers, and even bathtubs.

2. What Are the Benefits of Sliding Shower Doors?

Sliding shower doors are ideal for smaller bathrooms, as they don’t require extra space for door swings. The easy operation mechanism also makes them easy to use.

The sleek design of these doors presents the bathroom with a contemporary look. In addition, cleaning and maintenance are easy, and you need only a simple glass cleaner. 

Sliding shower doors are highly customisable and can be made to fit any space and style.

3. Are Sliding Shower Doors Suitable for Small Bathrooms?

Shower doors that swing on hinges are impractical in small bathrooms with tight spaces. 

Sliding shower doors are an ideal solution because they require no clearance to open/close. These doors maximise space efficiency, making them perfect for smaller spaces.

4. Can Sliding Shower Doors Be Installed with Any Shower Enclosure?

Sliding shower doors are compatible with all types of shower setups and enclosures. The different sliding shower door styles include:

  • Frameless
  • Framed
  • Semi-frameless
  • Quadrant
  • Corner
  • Single
  • Double

5. Are Sliding Shower Doors Easy to Install?

The installation of sliding shower doors is a manageable DIY project. It involves taking accurate measurements with a measuring tape and ensuring everything lines up perfectly with a spirit level.

You’ll need essential safety gear, such as gloves and safety glasses to protect yourself, and an electric drill and screwdriver to secure tracks and frames.

Professional help is recommended if there is improper alignment due to the removal of an old shower door.
