The Albedo is a single frameless glass panel that hinges off the wall to close over a bathtub, sized 58 inches tall by 34 inches wide. Its solid brass hinges, clips and knob are the main selling point over the aluminum hardware common on cheaper tub doors, and the glass carries an EnduroShield non-stick coating that helps water sheet off. It is reversible, so it fits either end of the tub, and the pivot swing leaves the tub rim open for stepping in. Owners rate it highly for the clean look and sturdy feel; the trade-offs are a heavy panel, a careful install, and the need to wipe the sweep and hinges to keep them clear.

Owners give the Albedo high marks for its frameless look and the solid brass hardware, and several say it feels sturdier than the framed doors it replaced. Complaints center on installation effort and on keeping the sweep and hinges clean.
