Alternatives to Aluminum Frames:
Stainless Steel: More expensive, heavier, extremely strong and durable, also corrosion-resistant. Often used in high-end or commercial applications.
Frameless: Uses thick tempered glass (usually 1/2" or 3/8") with minimal metal hardware (clips, hinges). Offers the most open, modern look but is the most expensive option.
Plastic/Vinyl Frames: Least expensive, but can look cheap, become brittle over time, and are less durable. Common in budget enclosures.
Brass Frames: Traditional, durable, and corrosion-resistant (especially solid brass), but often more expensive and less common in modern styles.

Common Door Styles with Aluminum Frames:
Sliding Bypass Doors: Most common for tub/shower combos or smaller stalls. Doors slide past each other on tracks. Aluminum frames handle the tracks and rollers well.
Pivot (Swing) Doors: Hinged doors that swing in or out. Require adequate clearance. Aluminum frames house the pivot hinges.
Frameless Doors (with Minimal Aluminum): Often use very slim aluminum clips or U-channels at the top/bottom/sides for minimal support, maximizing the glass look while still benefiting from aluminum's corrosion resistance in those contact points.
Neo-Angle Doors: For corner showers, typically pivot doors with specific angled frames.
Important Considerations:
Quality Matters: Lower-end aluminum frames can feel flimsy, dent more easily, or have finishes that chip/peel over time. Look for reputable brands and thicker gauge aluminum.
Finish Durability: While anodized finishes are very durable, painted finishes (especially cheaper ones) can potentially chip or scratch. Higher-quality powder-coated finishes are more resilient.
Strength vs. Stainless Steel: While strong enough for most applications, aluminum isn't as strong as stainless steel. Very large or heavy doors might benefit from stainless steel for maximum rigidity (though aluminum is often still sufficient).
Glass is Key: The door's performance and safety rely heavily on the tempered glass (safety glass that crumbles, not shatters). Thickness (usually 3/8" or 1/2") affects stability and feel. Consider glass coatings (like AquaClear) for easier cleaning.
Seals & Hardware: Quality of the rubber/vinyl seals (sweeps, gaskets) and hardware (rollers, hinges, handles) is crucial for preventing leaks, ensuring smooth operation, and longevity.
Installation: Precise installation is vital for proper function and waterproofing. While DIY is possible, professional installation is often recommended.
