I have small bathroom which I had completely refitted last year to a good standard, however, the P shaped glass shower door seems too short and water is going all over the floor. We are constantly having to put a towel down whenever we use it and it's a pain. I have tried searching for some sort of extension to increase the curve just a few centimetres which would make all the difference, does anything exist? Any suggestions?
Thanks, I've put a pic on, as you can see the door isn't big enough and doesn't cover the curve of the bath, so I was just wondering if there is anyway of making it longer sort of thing???
It appears to be the usual bracket that attaches to the wall/tiles and the glass is pinched in so to speak.
Ah I see what you mean now from the pictures, as above, often a photo or two really does help understand the problem Not quite wide enough I would say, as opposed to 'too short' Anyway, where its fixed to the wall channel, looks like its been secured at its minimum width On the inside face of the wall channel there will be 2 small screw (maybe 3) Get some help to hold the glass and undo these screws Then slide the glass outwards to its maximum setting, bearing in mind that the fixing screws need to secure through wall channel and into glass channel (apologies if you're familiar with this fixing system) Pilot hole through wall channel into glass channel, I would guess around 2mm, then secure with the screws This may give you enough length / width Bathroom looks very nice by the way
Nice one! I shall defo try that. I'll probably come back to you when ive dropped the door and the screws have gone down the plug. (You might've noticed diy is not my strong point). Thanks
I have exactly thesame problem. Spending so much to refit a bathroom and then having to put a towel on the floor make it look awful. The issue is the width of the glass screen, which should have been designed to exceed the bend slightly and guarantee and slap during shower. an extra 5cm or so increase in the width would have stopped this issue if tested properly. This is a design flaw and makes you wonder if the manufactures tested this damn things before selling it to the buyers. My STRONGEST advice ever DON’T buy this P shaped bath, the shower screen is awful and will leave you frustrated and angry, unless the manufacturers comes up with a solution or a redesign of the shower screen.
Same bath, same screen, same problem. However I anticipated the problem, regrettable as it is, and I added a shower rail above the bath and use a shower curtain as well. It needn't be a full width one.....just wide enough to solve the problem and it can be transparent if an opaque one is unsettling. But...no water on the floor, ever.
