Top 5 tips for customising your shower glass panels

At The Glass Warehouse, we offer a tailored glass manufacturing service with a variety of customisations. To make sure you choose the right glass shower doors for your bathroom, you should consider the following steps:

1. Take exact measurements of your shower

As market leaders in toughened glass manufacturing, we are able to process made-to-measure shower glass screens using cutting-edge machinery. This is ideal for anyone planning to have a new shower enclosure or wet room installed. Our custom glass is also the perfect solution for showers placed underneath sloping ceilings.

2. Choose the right shower door shape

One of the main reasons we offer a bespoke service is so that you receive perfect custom made shower doors. Instead of choosing standard glass shower doors, you can decide on the exact shape you need.

For a smaller bathroom, we would suggest choosing our left or right cut-off corner rectangle, which is ideal for corner shower enclosures. Whilst our rectangle and left or right-hand shaped glass can be used for wet rooms to prevent excess flooding.

3. Select a glass type for your shower screen

Choosing the right glass for your shower screen is essential, which is why we offer a wide selection. If you’re looking for something bright but also private, you should opt for our sandblasted or frosted satin glass. This opaque glass adds extensive privacy, as it is constructed by etching toughened laminated glass to create obscure and durable shower glass panels. The most common type of glass is clear and low-iron glass, followed by tinted.

4. Add protection to your shower

Once your design is in place, you should seriously consider adding our Polymer coating invisible shield to your glass shower doors, which is a form of protection against water residue, soap scum, stains and more.

This not only protects your shower and reduces soiling but is also very low-maintenance – making your shower doors much easier to clean, whilst also offering you an attractive-looking shower to enhance your bathroom.

5. Pick the right shower fittings

For expert shower door installation, you can choose from our variety of high-quality fittings, which are designed to hold your glass shower panels together. This includes our selection of 90 and 180-degree chrome-plated hinges, 1.100mm to 2.200mm translucent glass seals, 1.240mm to 2500mm glazing channels, and shower door handles.

If you’re unsure on the type of fittings you require for your custom-made shower screens, our skilled staff can advise you on every aspect of installation, including the right fixtures, tools and any further guidance you need to have your shower doors fitted perfectly.
