Wed Jul 02 2025

Modern bathroom interior with double vessel sinks, textured wall, glass shower enclosure, wood cabinetry, and ambient lighting.

Imagine stepping into a bathroom that feels like a 5-star spa.

 

Now, here’s the truth:

Most shower doors are cheap, flimsy, and mass-produced.

They leak. They wobble. They look like they belong in a budget motel.

But Dulles Glass?

They don’t do "average."

Instead of selling cookie-cutter framed enclosures, they engineer custom-built, precision-fit sliding shower doors that last decades — not years.

If you want a shower that feels luxurious, fits perfectly, and never rusts or sags…

Because Dulles Glass is the only choice for homeowners who refuse to settle.

Why Sliding Glass Shower Doors? (And Why Dulles Glass DOMINATES)

Modern bathroom interior with double vessel sinks

Space - Saving Design
No more swinging doors hogging half your bathroom. Sliding doors glide smoothly, maximizing every inch.

 

Instant Luxury Look
Frameless designs = high-end hotel vibes. No bulky frames. Just sleek, uninterrupted glass.

 

Effortless Cleaning
Forget mildew shower curtains. Nano-coated tempered glass (3/8 or 10mm thick) wipes clean in seconds.

 

Floods Your Bathroom with Light
Thick, crystal-clear glass brightens your space — no dark, cramped shower corners.

 

Adjustable Widths
Dulles Glass doors offer 2–4 inches of flexibility (depending on model), ensuring a perfect fit for your space.

 

FAQ: What’s the best glass thickness for shower doors?
→ 3/8 (10mm) is the gold standard for stability and safety and most sliding shower door hardware accommodate ⅜ thick glass. Larger doors may need thicker glass for extra durability.
