Everyone's Favorite Sliding Glass Doors

This is the look that customers always point to as their favorite. Many had no idea that such tub enclosures existed. If you want to use your tub sometimes as a shower, you can add a glass enclosure instead of a shower curtain. Not only that, you can avoid having a metal frame. The overhead rod features a simple, geometric design, and uses the least metal possible in a sliding door. Wheels on the thin rod guide the doors. One small metal guide is at the bottom.

And that's it.

The rest is clear, luscious glass that shows off your tile.

And just what is so hot about Skyline sliding glass doors for tubs?

How they're exactly what you want Don't settle for the standard sizes of big box retailers. At Dulles Glass and Mirror, you decide the size of the shower. You decide the configuration, height and width, the type of glass, and the color of hardware. We manufacture it on our premises exactly how you ordered it. We are not an assembly line. We create individual tub enclosures, each one exactly how the customer wants it, and each one made with great care.
How they increase the value of your house Some day you may need to sell your house. Wouldn't it be great to show potential buyers a high-quality tub enclosure? A simple bathroom upgrade can easily add value to a house, and make it easier to sell.
How Dulles Glass and Mirror handles your installation This is hassle-free home improvement. Initial quote, measurements, final quote, and, especially, clean, efficient installation—we watch carefully what happens to you all along the way. We respect your home, and treat it right.
How easy it is to deal with any problems Then add a hassle-free warranty. Dulles Glass and Mirror has one of the best warrantees in the industry. For three years, not just the glass, but also the metal hardware and glass treatment are completely covered by our company. Other manufacturers often do not cover hardware and glass treatment, so you are on your own if something happens with them. Their warrantees might also not cover a full three years.
How they look A simple, luxurious appearance that is almost all glass. The less metal the better in a tub enclosure. When that metal has an innovative design, the tub looks better still.
How they feel Opening a door made of thick, tempered glass is far different that using a door that is thin and rattling.
How they last That thick tempered glass is also far less likely to break. And it stays where it is supposed to because the stainless steel hangers that grasp it overhead are fastened through holes drilled in the glass. This is in sharp contrast to shower doors from big box retailers, which have thin glass held by glue inside poorer-quality aluminum hangers. Strong, top-of-the-line stainless steel hardware holds the shower together far longer than does low-quality aluminum.
How they clean Make your life easier. Frameless glass panels, with no crevasses, and a few stainless steel parts are far simpler to clean than framed glass panels. Then add ClearShield glass treatment, which bonds with the glass and keeps it very clear, without the build-up that forms on untreated glass.

 

About Skyline Sliding Bathtub Doors

skyline sliding door
  • There is always one fixed panel and one moving panel. Location of the fixed panel is reversible and can be placed on the right or left side.

  • The moving panel moves on three sets of wheels over a metal rod.

  • There is minimal need for support from the walls and installation can be completed even in absence of studs because majority of the glass weight is carried by the stationary glass.

  • Glass thickness is usually 3/8", but 1/2" glass can also be used for a more substantial look and feel.

  • Typical overall opening is 60" width by 72" height but we will custom fabricate to fit your space.

  • Typically used in smaller spaces where there is not enough room for a swing door.

  • Skyline shower hardware is available in brushed stainless steel, or polished stainless steel.

  • Most popular glass types are clear glass, low Iron glass, frosted glass.
