If you’re wondering how much a frameless shower door costs in Danvers, hardware selection is one of several factors that shape the final number, alongside glass thickness, enclosure size, and substrate prep. The 24″ back to back tubular towel bar is a popular hardware upgrade for custom shower enclosures, letting homeowners hang towels on both sides of the glass at the same time.

What Is the 24″ back to back tubular towel bar?
This double-sided tubular bar clamps directly to a single glass panel, giving you a full-size towel bar on each side without drilling through the door twice. It’s a natural fit for frameless pivot and sliding doors where one panel separates the shower from an adjacent space — the kind of layouts we install throughout our frameless pivot and sliding shower door projects in Marblehead and beyond. Part number BM24x24 spans 24 inches, enough for a full bath towel on each side.
Available Finishes
This towel bar currently ships in one finish option, chosen to match the most common hardware palette in North Shore bathrooms.
Chrome
Chrome is the brightest, most reflective finish available and pairs naturally with white or light gray tile, chrome faucets, and modern or transitional bathroom styles.
Why Hardware Finish Matters
Hardware finish is one of the smaller line items in a shower door quote, but it’s also one of the most visible — it should match or intentionally contrast with your faucet, shower head, and cabinet pulls. Getting it wrong is a common reason we see homeowners regret a cheap shower door purchase, since mismatched or low-quality hardware ages faster than the glass itself. Beyond finish, the bigger cost drivers are glass thickness, overall enclosure size, and how much prep the tile or stone substrate needs before hardware can be anchored.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can a back to back towel bar be installed on any frameless shower door?
It requires a single glass panel accessible from both sides, so it works well on pivot doors, fixed panels near a sliding door, or a glass divider between a shower and adjacent space. Our team confirms panel thickness and clearance during your free in-home measurement before finalizing the layout.
How do I keep the chrome finish looking new?
Chrome resists water spotting well as long as you squeegee it after each shower and wipe it down with a soft cloth. If you’re searching for shower hardware near me and want to compare finishes side by side, our Danvers showroom keeps chrome, brushed nickel, and matte black samples on display.
