Installing a new shower? Unless you’re getting a walk-in shower or a bathtub/shower insert — which sometimes only requires a shower curtain — you’ll need to select a type of shower door. Here’s some information to help you choose. Sliding Shower Doors Sliding shower doors , also referred to as bypass doors, take up the least bathroom space of any type of shower door because they never expand inside or outside the shower. They typically consist of two to three panels that slide past each other on tracks along the top and bottom of the door. Because sliding shower doors come with at least two panels, they’re best used in wide shower openings measuring at least 60 inches. Framed sliding shower doors at a quarter- inch glass thickness , uninstalled, typically cost $175 to $500. Round Shower Doors Round shower doors , unlike most other types, open inward. They are ideal for corner showers. The curved glass gives you more elbow room, and the lack of a corner gives your bathroom more open...

BY ED DEL GRANDEHGTVPRO .COM Q: Hi, Ed. Your column is a wonderful home improvement resource and I need some information! I have a clear glass shower door (Well, it used to be clear glass) and it has mineral deposits from the water all over it. It's practically all foggy glass now! I have tried all kinds of glass cleaners and nothing seems to work. Do you have any suggestions for me?

Plus, it will offer a little more privacy while ...
