The Advantages of Corner Shower Enclosures for Smaller Bathrooms

Installing a corner shower enclosure can be a great way to maximize bathroom space. Not only are these types of glass shower enclosures affordable, but thanks to the frameless design, they can also make your bathroom look bigger, brighter, and more inviting. Highly customizable, you can choose the shower door style, glass type, and hardware finish, allowing your new shower to seamlessly blend in with your bathroom’s existing decor.

Corner glass shower enclosures can fit into any bathroom corner, which is one of the reasons it’s the leading choice for bathrooms that are short on space. Their versatility and the many design options available also make these corner shower doors highly customizable, so you’ll end up with a unique shower enclosure that will instantly update the look and feel of your bathroom while adding value to your home.

Maximize Bathroom Space 

Corner enclosures feature space-saving designs, making them popular for guest bathrooms and smaller master bathrooms. Even if you're short on shower space, you can choose from a variety of styles that can work with any aesthetic, making them an excellent choice for a homeowner on a tight budget who wants to modernize their bathroom.

The fact that a corner shower enclosure can be installed against an existing wall is one of the enclosure’s best features. The enclosure’s space-saving design will add functionality to any bathroom that has limited space. 

Explore Different Design Options

Corner enclosures can transform small half bathrooms into full baths. While corner enclosures can be frameless or semi-frameless, frameless shower enclosures remain the popular option.

A 90-degree shower door configuration is the most common shape for these types of shower enclosures. This design consists of two sides of glass that are connected against a wall. These enclosures can be square or curved in design. Homeowners can also choose from a wide range of door options. While a door that opens out is often a common choice, to save more space, sliding or bifold doors can be a better option. These types of frameless shower doors don’t require floor space to open out, making them a better choice for homeowners in search of sleek shower units due to their small bathroom layout. 

Cost-Efficiency

Because not as much glass is used to create this type of enclosure, compared to a large walk-in shower enclosure in a master bathroom, corner shower enclosures are a more affordable option and still have the power to instantly transform and update a cramped and outdated bathroom space. At GCS Glass & Mirror, our design team can meet with you to discuss your budget and the design options available that are affordable and can work with your style and existing bathroom decor.

Keep Your Floor Dry 

A simple shower curtain doesn’t do a good job of trapping water inside your shower. A wet bathroom floor can be extremely dangerous, especially if you have elderly family members or small children in the home. With a corner shower enclosure, you won’t have to worry about wet floors or water leaking out of the enclosure. At GCS Glass & Mirror, our glass contractors will design a custom corner shower enclosure and door that creates the proper seal. Additionally, the shower’s water-tight base will also ensure that not a single drop lands on your bathroom floor.
