Quick Fix Hinged Shower Door

Featured Replies

i was in a similar position and just bought the cheapest one i could find. which looked identical to yours and i was surprised on how decent it actually was. i think mine was closer to 1m and was a bit bendy being only 6mm so yours will probably be better being narrower. just make sure you fit the hinges the right way around so the water drains inwards.

How much did you pay?

it was just a cheap ebay no name supplier, less than £100 all in, but it was probably 2018/ 2019 so precovid prices.

ebay/amazon/manomano/ Victoria plumb are probably the places to look 😬 ( cant believe i recommended Victoria plumbing)

Mental...

 

SWMBO's idea is on the lines of.....get rid of the existing old blue, 1980s, 800mm tray. Then get a new 1200mm tray, this "as they're only about £40".

Keep the existing white tiles. Move the stud wall to the right about 400mm. Add tiles to the extended shower area and below the existing to meet the new, lower tray.

 

This means we can utilise the 1200mm sliding shower door we bought years back for the downstairs bathroom and never used. 

 

All this whilst there's still a rain leak coming in through the ceiling.

 

My plan, do the roof, gut the bathroom and redo in wall panels.

 

Told her I'm not interested doing it half arsed. As mad as her ****ING mother was! 

 

Get the UFH connected in your other bathroom then you can use that, while you go for a record post count gutting and re modelling this one.
