Ideal For
This style is a great fit for tub/shower combinations where a swinging door won’t fit, and homeowners looking for a space-saving but still upscale finish.
Choosing This Configuration
Bypass doors are a go-to option when a bathroom’s layout doesn’t leave room for a door to swing open, whether that’s because of a nearby vanity, a narrow floor plan, or simply a preference for a more streamlined look. Because the panels slide past one another rather than opening outward, this style also tends to be an easier transition for anyone with mobility considerations, since there’s no door to push or pull. We can help you decide on panel width and overlap during your consultation, based on how your shower opening is sized.
Custom-Measured to Your Bathroom
Every Modern Frameless Bypass – Tub door is custom-built to your bathroom’s specifications, based on your shower opening, tile configuration, and preferred style. Choose from hardware finishes including matte black, brushed nickel, polished chrome, and oil-rubbed bronze, along with clear or frosted glass.
Installation & Care
Bypass doors depend on a level, properly aligned track system to slide smoothly for the long term, so our installers start by confirming your wall and floor are plumb before mounting the hardware. Panels are then set into the track and adjusted so they overlap correctly and roll without catching. Because the track sits along the base of the enclosure, it’s worth wiping it down periodically to prevent soap scum or mineral deposits from building up, which is the most common reason a bypass door starts to stick over time.
Are bypass shower doors harder to keep clean than a single door?
Not significantly — the main area that needs occasional attention is the track itself, where water and soap residue can collect. Regular wiping, along with our glass surface protection option, keeps both the glass and the track looking and functioning like new.
Comparing Your Options
Bypass doors are one of several space-saving configurations we build. Our Shower Door Options page compares bypass, sliding, and pivot styles side by side, and our Shower Door Gallery shows completed bypass installs for reference.
