Picking the Right Slider for Your Opening
Bypass or Barn Style?
A bypass slider uses two panels that pass each other on parallel tracks, so you can step in from either end. That makes it a natural fit for a standard tub-shower alcove. A barn-style slider moves one panel along an exposed rail beside a fixed panel, which gives a cleaner modern line and keeps one side closed to spray.
We also install top-roller systems such as the Cambridge, where both panels slide, and the Serenity, a slider made for a 90-degree corner. Opening width, curb height, and wall plumb usually decide which system will run best in your space.
When a Slider Beats a Swing Door
A sliding door never swings into a vanity, a toilet, or a narrow walkway, so it is the easy answer when floor clearance is tight. It also suits tub-to-shower conversions and low-threshold pans, where the door has to hold water in without crowding the room.
In family bathrooms, a handle that doubles as a towel bar is a practical touch. Clear or low-iron tempered glass is available, and the rollers and rails come in chrome, matte black, and brushed nickel to match your fixtures.
Measuring, Installing, and Caring for the Track
We start with your goals and a look at glass, door style, and hardware, then take exact measurements so the panels line up with your walls and tile. Seasonal temperature swings can push walls slightly out of plumb, so our installers shim and set each slider plumb and true for an even glide.
On install day we protect your floors, take out the old enclosure at no extra cost, and finish with a water test and cleanup. To keep the glide smooth, squeegee the glass after showers and wipe the lower track with a mild vinegar solution about once a month.
Sliding Door Questions
Most slider installs take a few hours once the glass is fabricated. Timelines vary by opening size, hardware style, and tile conditions, but we keep you updated from measure to final cleanup.
Yes. Traditional bypass doors use two panels that slide past each other on parallel tracks, allowing access from either side of the shower. Barn-style sliding doors typically feature a single moving panel that glides along an exposed rail, creating a more modern, decorative look. During your consultation, we’ll explain the advantages of each style and help you choose the option that best fits your space and design goals.
With correct overlaps, tracks, and seals, a well-fitted slider controls splash effectively. We’ll review spray patterns and head locations during design to keep water where it belongs.
It depends on the system you choose. Traditional bypass doors allow access from either side because both panels slide. Some barn-style systems use one fixed panel and one moving panel. We’ll explain the differences and help you choose the layout that works best for your bathroom.
We can provide a ballpark over the phone with basic measurements and photos. Final pricing comes after on-site measurements to confirm a precise fit.

From estimate to completion took only 2 weeks! Master bathroom shower total replacement. Accurate estimate and measurements were perfect (Thanks Edgar!). The installation team (Connor and Uriah) were timely, meticulous and professional! Beautiful work at a great value. Highly recommended!

This is the 3rd bathroom I have had shower glass put in with Shower Doors of Dallas. First two were in 2017 a master with frosted glass and a guest bathroom with clear glass. I absolutely love my new sliding glass doors in my upstairs bathroom! The whole process was great from start to finish and I am glad I have kept using them. They came out to measure and show me hardware and different styles. They ordered then once in scheduled to have it installed. They have provided wonderful service from start to finish! Highly recommend for all your glass needs. 😀

Just had an amazing experience with Shower Doors of Dallas and had to share. From start to finish, their team was professional, punctual, and truly cared about the quality of their work. They walked us through the options, made great recommendations, and delivered exactly what they promised. The installation was smooth, clean, and efficient—and the final result completely transformed our bathroom. It honestly feels like a luxury upgrade every time we walk in now. If you’re thinking about upgrading your shower, I highly recommend Shower Doors of Dallas. Great people, great work, and a beautiful result.

Every contact with Showers Doors of Dallas has proven awesome! Andrew came out and measured about 8 days ago, and tonight Alexander and Habenero (sp?) were so efficient in contacting us to let us know approximate time. They did an excellent job of installing our custom doors. Even Isabella and Johanna (office) were very efficient to deal with. I highly recommend this company! The other bid we received encouraged us to go with this company, saying their bid for the low iron glass would cost at least $500 more. We are glad to have found Shower Doors of Dallas!

We had a great experience with this company. Our new master shower looks amazing. We invested in all new gold hardware and they had a color that matched perfectly. I’d give 10 stars if I could. 😍

They were quick and efficient. Low iron glass with shower guard (both premium options), single pane, brushed nickel non embossed clamps was the installation shown here. Amazing results. The company that did my shower (All American Flooring) contracted them out and they did an amazing job. Also they left a rubber ducky. 😀

Quick and accurate estimate with explanation of options including low iron glass. Installation was about a week later and was done with precision and care. No mess left behind. Waiting the required few days for the silicone to cure but all looks good so far.

We are recurring customers of Shower Doors of Dallas. They completed some minor warranty work yesterday on a shower door sweep. One sign of a quality company is to honor warranty claims with the same attitude/willingness as a new sale. Shower Doors of Dallas embodied this by honoring our request for warranty work. Jeremiah and Daniel completed the warranty work in a professional and quality manner. Every interaction we have had with Shower Doors of Dallas reconfirms our decision to repeatedly do business with them. Very happy customers.

Andrew is an expert with a good heart. Not only did he take the time to explain his services, but he also went above and beyond to educate us about a slew of things. He helped us adjust things so that we could get to a price point that my elderly parents were comfortable with. He and his team are amazing folks—highly recommend this company.

This was a great experience. Who knew there was so much to think about when choosing a shower door! Andrew helped me with all of the options and the questions I had for each of them. Jeremiah and Art did a pristine job of installing my beautiful glass door – not a fingerprint in sight! They're really great at what they do.

We recently had shower enclosures in two baths redone / upgraded to frameless by Shower Doors of Dallas. They were fantastic to work with through the entire process from estimation, to hardware ordering, through to installation. Their install team even came back out again to ensure our glass enclosures were completely clean (wow!). We highly highly recommend them as fantastic end-to-end customer service is very rare these days.

Save yourself the time shopping. I used Shower Doors of Dallas twice. First in 2014 and again in 2018. Recently, June 2023, I called about a door handle that had become loose after more than 5 years. They were at my house 2 days later and replaced the handle with a brand new one totally free. When’s the last time you received service of any kind after 5 years, much less excellent service? You can relax and trust they’ll do a great job and be there for you years later. It’s a no brainer.

I recently stopped by the store to purchase the vinyl piece that fits under my shower door’. They were kind enough to cut to measure and didn’t charge me. I came home thinking I could replace it myself (I’m 80 years old). I couldn’t get it on and was going to call the store when I noticed their truck in front of my door. What are the chances? Andrew, their employee was putting in new shower doors across the street. He came in and put it on for me. They are a local business that has been in the Richardson area for years. I recommend them highly.

Shower Doors of Dallas has a very high level of integrity. Initially, the glass was not cut accurately, so they remade the glass. They could have installed and caulked it, and I likely would not have known, but they worked diligently to ensure my project was completed perfectly! Shout out to Shane, Connor & Xavier who were professional, timely and courteous!!! I highly recommend this company!!! Thank you!!!

Shopped 4 companies. Andrew and this team won for a couple of reasons. 1) Andrew – professional and polite. 2) They did match a lower quote I got and it showed me they were serious about winning my business. The enclosure looks amazing and I second all the reviews here regarding the crew. Very pleased.

Just had my estimate done by Jason of Shower Doors of Dallas. Very polite and professional. He measured everything in the shower, explained in detail the process and gave me a price quote. So far I am happy with everything, even gave a deposit. The only thing I am not happy about so far is that they wanted to charge me $100 for an upgrade on the shower handle. The other companies did not charge for the same handle. However, I still went with this company because of Jason and his presentation. I will update this post after the actual installation. So far, so good!

I am not usually a person that writes reviews but decided to share my experience because great customer service is rare these days. I would highly recommend Shower Doors of Dallas for the following reasons: 1) Competitive Pricing (least expensive estimate I found for my shower enclosure) 2) Reliable – they did exactly what they said they would do and in the time they said it would take 3) Professional – EVERY interaction I had with representatives from this company was positive and professional (highly unusual). The installers were fantastic (Albert & Robert). My shower enclosure looks fantastic!

Shower Doors of Dallas was superb! They were quick to come to our house for an estimate, and the man doing the estimate was extremely knowledgeable and professional. It was obvious from spending just a little time with him that this was something he had done many, many times before. He instilled confidence in us that they could do the job right. After the estimate was completed, and we decided to move ahead, they ordered the glass, then contacted us shortly after they received it to complete the installation. Two very nice guys called before they came, then showed up on time. Within about 1 1/2 hours, they were done. The shower ended up beautiful, with very solid glass and hardware. They then spent time with us to explain how to care for it, and assured us that if adjustments were needed in the future due to the NTX soil, they would be glad to come out and take care of it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend these folks. They know showers, are perfectionists, and couldn't be nicer — rare qualities these days.
