There is an old saying “Less is More” and the Swinging Shower Door certainly proves that saying perfectly.
When frameless shower doors started making their mark in North America, the swinging style was the only frameless style available. Europe had already developed a hinge system to handle the weight of the 3/8″ thick, tempered glass. This concept entered the States in the mid 80’s and, sadly, many glass shops still use this hardware style. When measured, fabricated and installed correctly, these doors function and operate well for many years, just like a 70’s Volkswagen. As time went by, many modifications were made and the hinge system, thickness of glass and functionality of frameless shower doors changed accordingly.
MY Shower Door has always been and will continue to be, the driving force behind pushing the limits of capabilities. We test, document modify and test again all aspects of the frameless shower door. We have developed using 1/2″ thick, tempered glass and a pivoting hinge system. The swinging shower door is still the flagship of shower doors but the innovations conceived by MY Shower Door continue to improve it’s design and simplicity.
