Your initial thought might be to recreate the shower stall that is already in your bathroom. However, since you plan to replace the stall, it’s a good idea to think about how different designs could be better for the family. A stall with glass doors might work best.

Glass doors can open up a small bathroom because you’ll be able to see more of the space. Not only that, but glass can be easier than plastic shower curtains when it’s time to clean up.

Doors made of glass can also save you money in a number of ways. For instance, you don’t have to worry about water damage to the floor or subspace when you use glass; plastic shower curtains are more likely to result in leaks and accidental exposure to water than can mean trouble for the bathroom floor. In addition, when you’ve got glass doors you won’t be spending money on new plastic curtains throughout the year.

If you do opt for glass doors, you might want to stay from frosted glass. Frosted glass may seem beautiful, but the frost finish hide soap buildup and scum, making it tricker to clean the doors effectively. Not only that, but depending on the size of your bathroom, the space might seem much smaller compared to clear glass doors.
