Shower Tile All The Way To Ceiling Frosted Glass Door

Homeowners who want a floor to ceiling frameless shower may need a glass transom in their design.

Shower tile all the way to ceiling frosted glass door.

But you will need to do something to evacuate the moisture. Notice the glass is blue probably bluer in the image than in real life but you get the idea. Step into something different with the vigo winslow frameless sliding glass shower door enclosure. Bathroom is relatively small so am removing the door that separates the toilet shower from the vanity.

You barely notice the top of the glass and it lets it vent out well but still holds a good bit of heat in. Was thinking i would run the glass 1 fixed piece 1 door all the way to the ceiling in all of the pictures i am seeing it is stopping at least a foot below the ceiling. I do not have a fan and took the door all the way to 1 2 from the ceiling. Stabilizing tall floor to ceiling showers.

Instead of bringing the door all the way to the ceiling most steam showers are designed with movable transoms above the door. It saves on the cost of tile trim pieces cost much more than filed it makes cement board installation easier it makes drywall mudding conversion easier and it makes the space feel taller. Aesthetically for most tile shower walls end with the last complete row of tile at around 6 feet 2 inches or so or to the top or just above the glass enclosure depending on how the math works out. In my case i just leave the door open after i shower to evacuate the moisture.

The glass transom then acts like a vent and can be tilted open to release hot steam or kept close to keep the steam in. I m doing my master bath with frameless panels that go up to about regular door height. You ll want to make sure you have a tile ceiling rather than drywall for this application. I think it looks better to not take it all the way to the ceiling personally.

It is necessary to tile the ceiling and you should be prepared to let the fan remove humidity that is leave the shower door open until dry. This setup blends the ease of a sliding glass shower door with the versatility of a shower enclosure. Yes the new style is to go all the way up to the ceiling and it will be around to stay. I have not had a problem.
