Have you ever felt like you can’t build a doorless shower because you have a small bathroom?

​

A shower without a door is not a new innovation in the design industry and has been around for centuries. You know them as a walk-in shower or roll-in shower. The latter is actually meant for accessibility use and requires a bigger space for wheelchairs to roll in.

And while it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, it still remains a trending design feature that is popular even in the smallest bathroom spaces. 

So sit back and relax as I give you the top information you need to design a doorless shower in a limited space.

Why You Need A Doorless Shower In Your Small Bathroom
It’s no news to some that walk-in showers are commonly found in big bathrooms. But as more and more people are settling in a tiny home setup, the interest in building a doorless shower has grown even more. With the right design and planning, you can furnish your bathroom with this beautiful feature that many have their eyes on.

 

#1: Visually spacious
Glass partitions or pony walls can give an illusion of a bigger bathroom. It opens up the space and creates a clean and minimalist look. The last thing you want is to have a swinging door that gets in your way and takes up so much space in your already cramped-in shower. A walk-in design may just be your answer to trick your eyes that you have a visually spacious bathroom than what is actually there.

 

#2: Elegant 
There’s a notion that only large bathroom spaces can look luxurious. But nowadays, even urban apartments with the tiniest bathroom spaces can look just as good as the big, fancy bathrooms we see on the internet. Your small bathroom can transform into a designer masterpiece with the right design choices. A shower without a door is a favorite of Architects, especially in Europe and other Asian countries. It is sleek, stylish, and beautiful, which basically brings us back to #1.

 

#3: Easier to clean
With a no-door shower partition, you can finally say goodbye to icky shower curtains and shower doors which are a breeding ground for molds and bacteria. While you still have a remaining partition to clean, removing the door makes cleaning a lot easier and less time-consuming. A good example is a frameless glass partition. Without the frame, it's much easier to wipe it clean along the edges, unlike the framed ones that need cleaning every nook and cranny where dirt and mold may possibly hide.
