Designing your bathroom Part 5 – Shower Enclosures
There are many shower enclosure shapes, sizes and styles available. In designing your bathroom part 5, we look at shower door options, side panels, corner enclosures, free-standing enclosures and walk-in panels.
Shower Doors
[caption id="attachment_296" align="alignright" width="150"]
- Bi-Fold Shower door, folds away neatly against one wall, so if you have no room for a door to open out into your bathroom this is a great choice. The bi-fold gives you a wide space to enter and exit your enclosure.
- Hinged door, classic door opening style. This door opens straight from the hinge out into your bathroom. This opening will give you full door width to enter and exit your enclosure. Not suitable for small bathrooms.
- Pivot Door, opens out into the bathroom and back into the enclosure. The door opening isn't as wide as a hinged door but doesn't open out at far into your bathroom, so if space is limited and want a door that opens out, the pivots the one for you!
- Sliding Door, the doors slide open into the sides of the enclosure. Sliders are only available for larger square/rectangle shape enclosures, giving you a nice wide enclosure entrance and exit. A nice neat sleek, space saver
Side Panels All the shower door above- Bi-Fold, Hinged, Pivot & Sliding can be used within a recess/cubicle. You can add side panels to tuck your enclosure away in the corner of the room or make it a free-standing feature.

- Quadrant Enclosure: Designed for corner installation, a space saving curvaceous look, with sliding doors
- Pentangle Enclosure: Like the Quadrant enclosure designed for corner installation but straight sharp lines
- Corner Entry: A square design for corner installation, with sliding doors for maximum space saving
The free-standing look can be achieved using any shower door with two side panel. Therefore you can make your enclosure as wide as you like using, a sliding, bi-fold, pivot or hinged door. Using shower doors with panels to achieve the free-standing look will give you a square sharp design, if you would prefer a round curvaceous look then you can use the D-Shape enclosure, which is designed for free-standing purpose.
Walk-In Shower Enclosures
- Round walk-in Enclosure: come complete with tray and panels
- Wet Room Shower Panel: You can use any size shower panel straight onto your tiled floor
- Walk-in Enclosure: Using a low-profile tray you can use a single shower panel with or without an end panel
