Greatest care needs to be taken when measuring, designing and fitting your shower door to ensure and clean line and efficient enclosure. Don’t forget to consider the dam height (the distance off the floor before the door starts) when measuring up.
You need to think about if your shower door is to open inwards or outwards. This usually depends on the ergonomics of the space you are working with. Visualise how your shower will work when you are using it and how the door will move within the space. An inward opening door means less water will get into the bathroom but can be awkward.
An alternative to a door, where there is room, is to have in line and square enclosures with no door at all. These are more suitable in a wet room environment.
All custom shower doors should be made from toughened safety glass and with high quality fittings that will not rust or tarnish. The great advantage of glass shower doors is the wide range of finish effect that is available from clear, etched or tinted glass and sandblasted.
Glasstrends units are individually made to order and can be cut to any size or shape to fit, so they can fit slopping roof shapes. Applications include hinged doors, in line and square enclosures, bath and wet room screens to any size or shape.
