SHOWER ENCLOSURES VS SHOWER CUBICLES
You might have heard about shower enclosures and shower cubicles and ask yourself what’s the difference. Shower enclosures are the same as shower cubicles; they serve the same purpose which allows you to have a proper division in your bathroom suitable for showering.
Choosing the right shower enclosure/cubicle varies on the size of your bathroom and other aspects that you should take into account. To help you decide, here is our mini guide to get you started:
MINI-GUIDE TO HELP YOU CHOOSE THE RIGHT SHOWER ENCLOSURE/CUBICLE FOR YOUR BATHROOM
1. Space – Bathroom Size
It is important to take note of the size and shape of your bathroom. Be sure to know the exact measurements of your bathroom to be used as reference in the planning ahead.
For larger bathrooms, it is ideal to install a walk-in shower or even your own full wet room. If your large bathroom is dedicated as an ensuite, fitting a larger bathroom shower enclosure is doable.
For smaller bathrooms, ie. second or guest bathrooms, a smaller compact cubicle will be more ideal. Good example will be a quadrant enclosure due to its design which comes in various sizes.
2. Position – Ideal Location
Size and shape are important and so its position. Good thing our range of shower enclosures can be fitted into tight spaces, like corner and recess spaces.
If you will be positioning a shower enclosure behind the door or in corner spaces, best to choose folding or sliding door to pair with your shower cubicle.
3. Style – Framed or Frameless
Shower enclosures are now created with style in mind either framed or frameless suitable for classic and contemporary bathroom design.
The framed shower enclosures come with a metal frame in its entire structure. The frameless shower enclosures are made from glass panels; however, metal hinges are used to hold the door.
4. Glass – Thickness
As time has passed and innovations came through, most shower enclosures come in toughened safety glass options and easy-clean options good for simpler maintenance.
The glass thickness can range from 6mm to 8mm and over. Keep in mind, the thicker the glass, the more hard-wearing and long-lasting it will be.
5. Shower Tray – Optional Depends on your Available Space
Shower trays are installed so shower flow can be directed to the drainage point effortlessly avoiding a puddle of water in your shower space.
Some of our shower enclosures already come with a shower tray for a perfect fit design. We also have a wide range of shower tray options in various sizes and styles which can also be bought in the measurements you need.
