It looks like there are always a lot of things to do when you own your home. There are the basic maintenance tasks to stay up with and also the constant minor repairs to keep everything in working order. We have found that as we replace items in our house we are always looking for ways to decrease the period of time we need to put into maintain the new items. One of the best time savers we discovered for keeping the bathrooms spotless and hygienic is putting in permanent shower doors.

The home that we moved into has two bathrooms. The downstairs bath has a shower stall and the upstairs bathroom has a tub/shower combo. Both had shower curtains. When we moved in I bought brand-new shower curtains and decorated the baths around the styles on the curtains. This is quite easy to do with the many bath accoutrements that are available. The bathrooms looked clean and fresh. It did not take very long for us to see that we had to make certain that the curtain in the shower stall was pulled into place properly to avoid getting the floor wet. This is the bathroom that company use when they stay, so we needed to show them how to place the shower curtains before they showered. We had numerous incidents where friends ended up mopping the floor. We determined we needed to have a different system. We went to a home improvement shop to find out what alternatives we had. The sales clerk suggested that we install permanent shower doors. There were numerous styles to select from. There are permanent shower doors which open and close like a regular door. We couldn't go with this type because the door would bump against the toilet. There were also permanent shower doors which sit upon a track and slide past one another. There were models which allowed for both doors to slide and there were alternative models that featured one stationary door while the other moved. The clerk stated that the doors which both move allow for less difficult washing of the shower stall. The permanent shower doors were sold in plastic, fiber glass and glass. The fiber glass doors on the shower were available in clear or frosted. There were also designs that had mirrors on the surface which faced the room. Every sort came with framing that might be custom fitted for the shower opening.

We purchased the shower doors that slid past one another in frosted glass. We were pleasantly surprised at how simple it was to put in the frame and to position the glass doors. The space appeared quite a bit bigger and neater without the shower curtain hanging there. We purchased a squeegee to clean the glass doors on the shower.

We were so pleased with the glass permanent shower doors in the small bath that we went back to the shop and ordered sliding glass doors for the shower/bathtub combo. The framing is anchored to the tub and the doors move on the track. The time it takes to scrub the baths is greatly reduced and I don't need to be concerned about mold accruing on the glass doors on the shower like it did on the plastic liner of the curtains.
