Frameless vs Framed: Which Shower Screen Style Suits You Best?

When designing or renovating a bathroom, one of the most impactful choices you can make is selecting the right shower screen. Beyond its practical function, the shower screen plays a key role in defining the room’s overall aesthetic. The debate often comes down to two styles: frameless vs framed shower screens.

So, which one is right for you?

Frameless Shower Screens: Sleek, Minimal, Modern

Frameless shower screens rely on discreet hardware to stay in place, offering a seamless and sophisticated look.

Why choose a frameless shower screen?

• Minimalist appeal: Perfect for modern and contemporary interiors, frameless screens keep visual clutter to a minimum.
• More light and space: Without bulky frames, light travels more freely, making small bathrooms appear larger and more open.
• Easy to clean: Fewer crevices mean less soap scum buildup and quicker cleaning.

The CRL Serenity frameless sliding shower door system is the epitome of minimalist design. With smooth, quiet gliding it’s ideal for luxury, spa-like bathrooms. Serenity is engineered for durability without compromising on elegance—perfect for those who want an ultra-modern, open-feel shower area.

Framed Shower Screens: Defined, Durable, Timeless

Framed shower screens feature a metal or composite frame around the glass panels, offering a more traditional and robust aesthetic.

Why choose a framed shower screen?

• Sturdy structure: Frames provide additional strength, especially ideal for high-traffic bathrooms.
• Design variety: Choose from a wide range of finishes—from matte black to satin brass —to complement your space.
