Choosing your Shower Enclosure

A typical kohler bathroom shower enclosure features a square tray surrounded by a glass door and side panel, which fits neatly into a corner, and although this works fine, there are many other options available that will add more of designer touch to your bathroom or en-suite.





Walk in showers for a designer look

Walk in showers have become a very popular choice for adding sleek, minimal style to the bathroom, which has been mainly driven by the desire to create a bathroom look. A walk in shower with a low profile shower tray allows you to get the bathroom look but without all the hassle and expense of tanking the walls and floor. A walk in shower features a glass panel and a slimline shower tray, with one end left open so you can simply walk in. One of the main advantages of a walk in shower is that it is low maintenance and easy to clean as there’s no tracks or hard to reach parts. Another advantage of a walk in shower, is that it’s ideal for those who are less mobile as there’s no doors to open or close. You could even make room for a walk in shower by removing a bath that hardly ever gets used.



Shower enclosures for small bathrooms

Small shower enclosures such as bi-fold doors start from 700mm wide, and these are ideal for a bathroom with limited space. Quadrant shower units are great for saving space too, and they provide an alternative to a rectangular or square corner enclosure. The rounded front maximizes floor space, and the sliding doors allow for easy access. Another excellent solution for a small bathroom is to fit a shower cubicle and tray between two walls. You could opt for a hinged, pivot, sliding or bi-fold shower door. If space is really tight, choose a sliding or bi-fold door.



Frameless shower enclosures

If you want to create a cleaner look, then opt for a frameless shower enclosure. Ideal for creating the illusion of space, a frameless shower unit is easy to clean and looks super sleek. You could fit a frameless shower door with matching side panel or a wetroom glass screen.



Shower enclosures with tray

Shopping for a shower enclosure and tray bundle means that you don’t have to worry about choosing a tray separately and it also ensures a perfect fit. Modern shower trays are lightweight yet extremely durable, and thanks to advances in technology, they are a lot more slimline too compared to what they used to be. Some measure just 30mm high for a much neater finish to your bathroom. If you do need to raise your shower tray to allow for plumbing above the floor, you can buy leg and panel kits separately. Another advantage of buying shower enclosures with tray is that you can save money on purchasing them separately.
