Barn doors like this CRL Cambridge slider installed by the custom shower experts at Binswanger Glass of Beaumont, TX have taken over! Since the exposed roller hardware is overhead, one of the biggest advantages of barn door showers is that there is no bottom rail to trip on. Many shower height barn door styles are also ADA-compliant for homeowners with wheelchairs and mobility concerns.

Our shower team can help you select the right shower for the right location. Binswanger Glass is an authorized installer of the best barn door slider manufacturers in America and can work within your budget to install the best shower door for your space.
