Shower Curtain or Shower Door

[Dave Kush]

Apologies if this is redundant. I tried to find an answer posted already but didn't see one.

Do you install tub/shower doors or just go with rods/curtains?

I don't mind installing a shower door for a bathroom remodel, but wanted to get input.  All of the units had curtains, not doors, when I bought them.  This does not appear to be an issue for the tenants or the property maintenance (ie, no calls about tiles, soft floors, rot, etc).  

My personal opinion is that a shower door is nicer, but wondering if that's going to create maintenance headaches later.  What do you do for your rentals?

My properties are typical mid-grade rentals in good neighborhoods (ie, not luxury apartments).  Do you find that tenants have much of a preference either way?

Thank you for your replies!

@Dave Kush  for tub shower combo a curtain is better, less expensive, less maintenance. If they break them it is less expensive to replace a rod then a door   For showers use a door but a high quality frameless shower door.    They are always going to put the curtain outside the curb so water gets on the floor if you use a curtain in a shower only setup.
