Why Choose A Shower Cubicle?
When it comes to designing a modern and practical bathroom, a shower cubicle offers the perfect balance of style and functionality. Whether you're renovating an existing space or installing a brand-new bathroom, choosing the right cubicle can transform the room, providing convenience and a touch of luxury.
Shower cubicles have become an increasingly popular choice in homes across the UK for several reasons:
Space Efficiency – Unlike traditional bathtubs, they take up less space, making them ideal for small bathrooms or en-suites.
Modern Aesthetics – They’re available in a variety of sleek and stylish designs and can enhance the overall look of your bathroom.
Easy Maintenance – With fewer crevices and corners compared to open shower areas, a shower cubicle is easier to clean and maintain.
Water Containment – The enclosed design helps prevent water from splashing onto the floor, reducing the risk of slips and water damage.
Versatility – Shower cubicles come in a range of sizes and styles to suit different layouts and personal preferences.
Choosing the Right Shower Cubicle for Your Bathroom
Selecting the perfect shower cubicle involves considering a few key factors:
Available Space – Measure your bathroom carefully to determine the ideal size and shape of your shower cubicle.
Door Mechanism – Depending on the layout of your bathroom, choose a door type (sliding, pivot, saloon) that offers easy access.
Glass Thickness – Look for toughened safety glass (typically between 4mm to 10mm thick) to ensure durability and security.
Style and Finish – Consider the overall aesthetic of your bathroom and choose a shower cubicle with a finish that complements your décor, whether it’s chrome, matte black, or brushed nickel.
Types of Shower Cubicles
Shower cubicles are available in a variety of shapes and configurations to fit different bathroom layouts. Here are some of the most common types:
Quadrant
Quadrant shower cubicles are a great space-saving option, featuring a curved front and designed to fit neatly into a corner. They are ideal for small or awkwardly shaped bathrooms and often come with sliding or hinged doors for easy access.
Square and Rectangular
Square and rectangular shower cubicles provide a spacious showering area and can be installed in either a corner or along a wall. These are versatile options that work well in both compact and large bathrooms.
Saloon and Sliding Doors
If space is a concern, saloon door or sliding door shower cubicles offer a practical solution. These cubicles are designed to maximise accessibility without requiring additional space for door clearance.

To get the most out of your cubicle, follow these simple maintenance tips:
Regular Cleaning – Wipe down the glass panels and door tracks regularly to prevent limescale and soap scum build-up.
