Shower Doors - Shower Enclosures

Find the perfect shower enclosures with our quick guide...

Shower enclosure designs are becoming ever more sophisticated and stylish. From minimalist walk-in styles to chic frameless enclosures, showers are being improved all the time, and at prices that won’t break the bank either. If you’re thinking about revamping your bathroom, or have just moved to a new house with a horrible one that needs completely redecorating, use this guide for ideas about which shower enclosure might suit you best.

Framed Shower Enclosure - This is the most popular style of shower enclosure, which comes in many different sizes, colours and with a variety of door choices. You can choose from white frames, silver frames, and even gold frames for an extra touch of glamour. The doors can be sliding, open outwards, fold up to the side or as a space-saving device can fold inwards. The enclosures can fit into corners or alcoves in square or semi-circular designs. They can be large for a family-sized bathroom or extra small to save space in a compact bathroom. With a framed shower enclosure there really is no end of choice, so the best way to select one is find a style you like, consider which shape and size will fit best in your bathroom and get advice from the showroom salesman if needed. Benefits: Gives a more traditional feel to your bathroom, and is sturdy and hard-wearing.

Frameless Shower Enclosure - The frameless shower enclosure gives your bathroom a fresher, more modern feel. The glass doors look lighter without a frame, and are just as adaptable as the framed variety. This enclosure is mostly fixed with wall brackets, allowing greater freedom for curved contours and modern designs. This is a style more suitable for the household of young professionals and the style-conscious, rather than families or people with traditional tastes. Benefits: Modern appearance and flexibility of form.
