Framed shower screens are considered the best at keeping water in place because all the components overlap when closed. This minimises the risk of any water leakage.
On the other hand, semi-frameless, frameless, shower panels, and bath screens have sections where there are openings between the glass or panels. This unfortunately can increase the chance of water escaping.
Framed shower screens and panels utilize 6.38mm laminated safety glass, which is enclosed at all edges. This eliminates the need for holes in the glass, making laminated (A Grade safety glass) a highly suitable choice. Its structural integrity, combined with its aesthetic appeal, makes it an exceptional option for shower installations.
Semi-frameless and frameless shower screens utilise toughened glass for its superior strength and to showcase the exposed edges.
Semi-frameless glass is usually 6mm thick, while frameless shower screen glass boasts a thickness of 10mm.
Laminated safety glass is constructed by bonding two pieces of 3mm float glass with a PVB plastic inner layer. In the event of an impact that causes the glass to break, the laminated glass will stay intact within the frame, despite being shattered into pieces.
Laminated glass cannot be utilised in semi-frameless and frameless shower screens due to the vulnerability of the exposed edges, which weaken its integrity.
Toughened glass refers to glass that undergoes heat treatment after being precisely cut to size, including any necessary cut outs for shower screens such as holes or hinges. This Grade A safety glass is essential for semi-frameless and frameless shower screens due to its exposed edges, requiring added strength for optimal performance.
The toughening process takes place after accurately cutting the glass to size. Subsequently, the glass undergoes heat treatment, altering its internal molecular structure. This enhances the glass's durability and strength, while retaining its original dimensions.
As a result, the glass achieves a strength that is 4-5 times greater than that of regular glass. If this reinforced glass experiences a significant impact, it will break into small, cube-like pieces. This design feature prioritises safety, as these tiny cubes are less likely to cause severe injuries compared to larger glass shards of standard glass

Great question! Getting the measurements right is the first step to DIY glory. Grab your tape measure and note the length of your bath.

Easy peasy!
Keeping your screen looking brand new is easier than you think! The number one tool in your arsenal is a simple squeegee. Give the glass a quick wipe-down after each shower to stop mineral buildup from Melbourne's water. For a deeper clean, just use a soft cloth and a mix of water and white vinegar. Avoid harsh, scratchy cleaners, and your stunning new shower screen will stay crystal clear for years to come.
Yes they are! U or wall channels are easy to install to the wall, and are great for overcoming potential out of square wall issues
Absolutely! Bath shower screens are designed to be versatile and can be installed over the majority of built-in bathtubs. They come in various shapes and sizes, making it easy to find a screen that fits your specific bathtub dimensions.
