Shower Door
Glass Shower Doors
There are more options than most people think when selecting a shower door. The standard width of a shower door is 28" wide and the standard height is 71-3/4" or 72". That does not mean that you cannot have a glass shower door smaller or larger. Smaller is not a problem, but there are hardware limitations when you want the door to be larger. Most shower door hardware will not let you exceed a 33" width even after adding a third hinge. This does not mean that if your opening is 42" you have to have a panel with your door. You can have two glass showere door that are 21" wide set up like French Doors. A shower enclosure door does not have to be mounted on a wall like it is commonly seen. You have other options like having the door attached to an inline panel or to a panel that is at a 90 deg or 45 deg (135 deg) return. Just because the glass provider or designer does not give you other options doesn't mean that it cannot be done. Give your ideas to them and get their opinion and see if they can help you create your custom shower enclosure, the worst they can do is say "no".
You can pick up a Glass Shower Door from many different places how you are looking online you must already know that your best chances are that you will find your best prices online. One of the places that I recommend you looking for a door or glass shower enclosure is eBay. I and many others have found lots of good deals. When you go to place an order with anyone make sure that you give them exact measurements from wall to wall at the bottom, center and top. If they are not equal it will not be a problem very really is any door or enclosure is square. One thing that you should no is that if the top and the bottom are the same but the center is off it will most likely make the enclosure or door more expensive because it is not a strait cut.
