Shower doors - Hinged or Sliding?

[Erin Church]

Hey BP! I should start off by saying, I am on the shower door side of the door vs. curtain debate. For me, the better water containment and appeal (aka more rent) make it worth it. My big question is on a 60” shower (was a tub), do you all prefer:

1. A pivot/hinged door

2. Two sliding doors

3. One sliding door and a fixed panel

I am about to buy doors and started wondering what everyone’s preference is. I’ve always done option 2 or 3, but this is my first bathroom that has plenty of room so that all options are feasible. :)

I prefer the swing doors. Sliders seem to hold more gunk and the wheels eventually stop working as well.
