First steps to buying the best shower enclosure.
The best shower enclosure that you can buy is not necessarily the most popular but is mostly based on the type of shower enclosure door that you need. In fact, our shower doors and shower trays are essentially what come together to build your shower enclosure.
How you create your shower enclosure will depend on the amount of space you have, the way your bathroom walls are arranged and what kind of shower tray will fit. To work out the best shower enclosure to buy, there are three initial things to consider.
1) Space
Firstly, you need to consider how much space you actually have. Is there enough space for the door to open out into the room, or will this get in the way and cause problems?
The best way to start is by measuring the area where you hope to place a new shower door. Measure the existing door area if you simply want to replace the door. Remember to also use a spirit level at the top, middle and bottom of the wall to see if the walls are straight. How straight your walls are will determine the type of shower door you decide to choose.
2) Shower Type
Secondly, see if you have a recess area where you could simply add one shower door to three walls that already make up an existing enclosed area. If you have an empty corner of the room, this might suit our quadrant or rectangle shower enclosures.
3) Shower tray sizes
Thirdly, it’s important to measure the shower area so you can find the correct shower tray size. The width of the shower tray measurements on our website will match any shower door that is the same width.

Quadrant Enclosures

Rectangle Enclosures
Anyone who likes the idea of a larger shower will be drawn to our simple shower design that incorporates a door and side panel suitable for the corner of your bathroom. These are our rectangle shower enclosures. With this shower enclosure you can create a large rectangle shower area or slightly smaller square shower area.
Browse through our matte black and chrome finishes to find a unique style that suits the feel you are looking for. You can also choose between sliding doors, pivot doors, and bi-fold doors to customize your shower entrance exactly as you like.
Sliding doors
As you can imagine, a sliding door is great when you have limited space. You no longer have to deal with the door swinging out into the rest of the bathroom, but simply have to push the door to the side when stepping in and out of the shower. You can easily dry off without those annoying moments where you will typically bump into the door.
Sliding doors are particularly suitable if you have a recess area that is already surrounded by three walls. Easily convert the recess area into a shower by installing one set of doors and a new shower tray.
Pivot doors
If you have a recess area already surrounded by three walls, pivot doors are particularly suitable. You can easily convert the area into a shower by installing pivot doors and a new shower tray.
Bi-fold doors
Another great space saver is our bi-fold door shower enclosure. With inward folding doors, you will have more space when you step out of the shower. If you naturally find yourself trying to open the shower door with your left hand, you can make some helpful adjustments as this shower comes with a handle that can be screwed to either the left or right bi-fold door.
Bi-fold doors are particularly suitable if you have a recess area that is already surrounded by three walls. Place the bi-fold doors against the recess area to create a shower enclosure.
Walk in wet room
If you have trouble accessing the shower (or simply enjoy a large freeing space), a walk in wet room can provide you with the ideal solution. With this shower you won’t find any kind of door that could get in the way whilst you enjoy a good soak! This makes it easier for anyone assisting with personal care. It also creates a luxury experience for those wanting to shower whilst looking out into the room in front of them.
Walk in wet room with flipper panel
This type of wet room includes extra functionality with its additional flipper panel. It provides a large space particularly suitable for those with mobility issues or for anyone who enjoys showering in a large open space.
You might be wondering what we mean by flipper panel. Well, this additional door panel folds into the side of your walk in wet room to help conceal any splashes and soap splatters that decide to make their way out of the shower. But the best thing is, you don’t have to always use it! Simply push the flipper panel open so it aligns perfectly with the rest of the shower panel and enjoy your usual shower!
