By-Pass Shower Stall Doors

Bypass shower stall doors are a category of frameless shower doors. Their greatest advantage is that they occupy very little space and remove the need for ‘swinging’ of the ordinary glass shower doors. They can be either glass or plastic with aluminum racks at the top and bottom to slide around.
