Bathroom Showers

Choice of bathroom showers should be based not only on how it will all look in bathrooms, but also on how much installation work you want to have done. Surface-mounted electric showers that have their controls on a wall-mounted box are the easiest type to install in bathrooms. Bathroom showers with concealed parts require more installation work. As the pipes and the valve are hidden, you need to build a false wall or channel into the existing one. Body jets need additional installation work, though innovations like shower towers have simplified the process.

Showers in smaller bathrooms can be solved by a shower bath and this can be a standard bath with a curtain or glass screen or a bath with a curved end and curved screen.

BATHROOM SHOWERS ENCLOSURES AND DOORS (Cubicles, enclosures and surrounds)
Bathroom shower doors and enclosures come in a variety of shapes and sizes. As with pottery the cost and quality of the units depend on the materials used in the construction and the design. Normally the thicker the glass the more expensive the shower cubicle. Less expensive enclosures generally use glass in the thickness range of 3mm to 5mm. This thickness of glass will always have a metal framework surrounding it to support the weight of the glass. The mid to upper market enclosures have glass in the thickness range of 6mm to 8mm. This type of cubicle generally has very little framework surrounding it or even none at all. The build quality of ancillary parts such as hinges and seals is also important, as these are the parts that wear the fastest with day to day use and will result in leaks. With sliding doors the rollers for the doors should be of ball bearing types. The reason for this is that with a ball bearing roller there is little or no wear on the wheels. This means that with constant use they do not become elliptical and the glide of the door is always smooth. The thickness of the frame and the wall profiles is also a contributing factor to the price. As a rule the thicker the frame and the profiles the more the cost. The profiles are the U-shaped channels that attach the cubicle to the wall.
Types of shower door
There are seven main types of shower door: Pivot, Hinged, Saloon, Bi-fold, In-fold, Double slider and Triple slider.
The Pivot and Hinged doors
These work in the same way, in that they open outwards as a single piece of glass. With the pivot door the hinges are at the top and bottom of the door. The advantage of this is that it makes the door well balanced and puts very little strain on the framework. The hinged door has the hinges on the side of the door. This does mean however that when the door is open, the opening on the hinged door is wider than that of the pivot door. These types of door tend to be less expensive than any other due to the simple design. There can be a difficulty with the water running off the door onto the floor when the door is opened after a shower.
The Saloon door
This is less common and has two hinged doors which join in the middle. They tend to open inwards but are not as a rule very popular.
Bi-fold and In-fold doors.
These two bathroom showers doors both open inwards and so overcome the difficulty of water getting onto the floor by dripping water off the door. The bi-fold door is hinged in the centre and as the name suggests folds exactly in the middle. The in-fold door swings in as a single door by means of a canter lever arrangement at the top and bottom of the door. You should be aware that if a person faints or collapses in this type of cubicle it is not possible to open the door.
Double and Triple sliding doors.
These bathroom showers doors work in the same way in that the doors slide on rollers back and forth to open or close. The difference between the two is the number of doors used to gain access. The double sliding door has less framework and as such has a more minimalist appearance, whereas the triple sliding door creates a wider opening when the doors are pulled back.
Shapes of bathroom showers
There are a myriad number of shower door shapes. The most common are the square, rectangle, pentangle (penta- or five-sided) and the quadrant (quad of quarter round). The most common type of shower tray size is 760mm x 760mm. This is not the smallest square tray size but is the smallest that is still usable by most people to shower. You are able to obtain square trays of both 700mm x 700mm and 600mm x 600mm. The 600mm tray size is normally used on caravans and boats. The best square tray size if it can be fitted is the 900mm x 900mm.
Rectangular bathroom shower trays come in a variety of sizes from 700mm x 800mm to 1700mm x750mm. The most common size is 1200mm x 760mm, whereas the optimum size is 1200mm x 900mm. Tray sizes larger than this normally incorporate the ability to dry oneself in the cubicle. A pentangle cubicle is the same as a square one but has the comer cut off. This results in the saving of floor space in the bathroom/en-suite. A quadrant cubicle has a rounded front edge designed to save space as with the pentangle.
