The space-saving design means you can finally move around your bathroom without bumping into an open door. And because they’re custom-fitted to your exact tub dimensions, you get a seal that actually works.

Your sliding tub doors come with tempered safety glass that meets all local building codes. The hardware is designed for smooth, quiet operation that won’t bind or stick over time.
In Nesconset, many homes built in the 1960s and 70s have unique tub configurations that require custom solutions. We have experience with these challenging installations, including tubs with unusual dimensions or awkward placement near vanities.
We also understand Long Island’s humid climate and choose materials that resist corrosion and maintain their appearance over time. The glass treatment makes cleaning easier, and the sealing system is designed to handle the moisture levels common in our area bathrooms.

We provide detailed quotes with no hidden fees, so you know exactly what you’re paying for before work begins.
Will sliding doors work with my existing bathtub?
Most standard bathtubs can accommodate sliding doors, but the specific configuration depends on your tub’s dimensions and surrounding walls. Tubs that are 56-60 inches wide work best with standard sliding door systems.
If your tub has unusual dimensions or is positioned close to a vanity or wall, custom modifications may be needed. We specialize in these challenging installations and can usually find a solution that works.
During the initial consultation, we’ll assess your specific situation and recommend the best door style for your space and usage needs.
How long does installation take for sliding tub doors?
Most sliding bathtub door installations take 2-4 hours depending on the complexity of your setup. Simple installations on standard tubs can be completed in about 2 hours.
More complex installations involving custom hardware or unusual tub configurations may take up to 4 hours. We work efficiently while ensuring everything is properly aligned and sealed.
You can use your shower the same day once installation is complete. We’ll test the doors thoroughly and show you how to operate and maintain them before we leave.
Do sliding tub doors prevent water from splashing out?
Yes, properly installed sliding bathtub doors significantly reduce water splash compared to shower curtains. The glass panels create a more effective barrier, and the sealing system is designed to contain water within the tub area.
However, some minimal water escape is normal with any shower door system, especially during vigorous showering. The key is proper installation and choosing the right door configuration for your specific tub and shower head placement.
We evaluate your shower setup during the consultation to recommend the door style that will provide the best water containment for your particular situation.
What maintenance do sliding bathtub doors require?
Sliding bathtub doors require minimal maintenance when properly installed. Regular cleaning with a squeegee after each use helps prevent water spots and soap buildup on the glass.
The tracks should be cleaned monthly to remove any soap residue or debris that could affect smooth operation. A simple wipe-down with a damp cloth is usually sufficient.
The hardware is designed to be low-maintenance, but occasionally lubricating the rollers ensures continued smooth operation. We provide specific care instructions based on your door’s hardware and finish.
Can sliding doors be installed if my tub has jets?
Yes, sliding doors can typically be installed on jetted tubs, but the door configuration may need to be customized based on the jet placement and tub design. The key is ensuring the doors don’t interfere with jet operation or maintenance access.
Some jetted tubs require specific door heights or configurations to accommodate the jet controls and provide adequate clearance. We have experience with various jetted tub brands and can recommend the best door setup.
During the consultation, we’ll examine your specific tub model and jet configuration to design doors that work with your existing setup without compromising functionality.
