Pocster Posted April 14, 2021 Author Share Posted April 14, 2021 Confused ! The sliding door stops are in the rail - their position can’t be adjusted . Closing the door causes this gap due to the top door stop ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Previously I've plaster boarded the framework up. But you could easily cut through it to fix it. Just how inaccessible will yours be? I would guess that the worst case would be tiles on cement board in front of it. I always try to make things accessible, but in reality its not always possible. Second best option would be to be able to see it via a endoscope/camera. I've yet to have a leak from a hep2o, I would be more worried about having a brass connector in there. This is my shower setup. consisting of several compression fittings on to hep2o pipe and 4no. 3/4" to 1/2" bsp reducers. This is 100% inaccessible or visible. I do wonder a lot of the time as to whether its dripping away behind there or something. All I can do it try to take comfort in the fact that I left it pressurised for 24h without a sign of leaking. But at the end of the day, if it does leak, I have the ability to fix it and finally get rid of the bloody P-Bath. Sweet looking bathroom pocster. Hopefully it remains leek free. Funny story relating to my post about my shower build....it eventually leaked. Not from a fitting, but from the diverter valve. Getting the faceplate off was a pain in the ass due to vast quantity of silicone use. Tried dental floss, rubbish. Got it off using two wall paper scrapers in the end. Had to replace the diverter in the end, and resealed it using minimal silicone this time. Best of luck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it’s been around 15 months - no leaks ( from the shower or bathroom ) . Regarding the face plate I didn’t put any silicone under the bottom part . Logic being I should be able to slip a razor blade under there and cut the silicone around the other 3 sides . How practical that is remains to be seen 🙄 Edited February 23, 2023 by pocster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy_wafer Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 Thread revival @Pocster, I'm looking to fit a recessed mirror/cabinet into my small downstairs shower. Not too many results on the old google. What did you fit? Have you been happy with it, has it stood the test of time? On 14/01/2021 at 12:00, Pocster said: Recessed bathroom mirror up - was a pita .

It’s a big mirror but shallow ( which I needed ) . *just* squeezed it in a single stud wall . Has a shaver socket in it so plugged an Alexa flex in it . So I can shout and swear at it rather than SWMBO . Looks identical to when I installed it 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure where they came from as the better half bought them. I’ll try and find out and let you know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought I was climbing the ladder and making progress, about to tick off one room, only to discover this wonderous idea of a recessed cabinet. Down the snake back to square number 3!!

Have you been happy with it, has it stood the test of time? this is what we got for the kids bathrooms. https://www.qssupplies.co.uk/bathroom-furniture-shower-taps/168379.htm wanted recessed so as to give more a sense of space as they're not huge en-suites. not cheap though. here's a photo of the bathroom with the hole ready for the cabinet to be fitted once the room was tiled and painted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy_wafer Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 Spot on that! That's just the size I'm looking for too! In the same ballpark as the abacus ones from rubberduck. I think that would fit snuggly in a 500mm wide hole! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
