Glass bath screens cut to size

We make glass bath screens to your measurements in four layouts: a fixed screen, a fixed panel with a hinged panel, a single hinged panel, and a folding two-panel screen. Every bath screen is toughened 8 mm or 10 mm glass with polished edges. You choose the layout in our configurator, enter your sizes and see a live price.

Which bath screen layouts can I order?

A bath screen stands on the rim of the bath. The configurator offers four layouts, all priced online:

The configurator does not offer curved bath screens. If you want one, ask us.

What glass is a bath screen made from?

• Clear: 8 mm or 10 mm.
• Grey tint or bronze tint: 8 mm or 10 mm.
• Satin (etched) or fluted (reeded): 10 mm only.

Every bath screen is toughened and every edge is polished. These are fixed, not options, because we do not supply bath or shower glass any other way. Read toughened, laminated and annealed glass for what toughening means and edge finishes for the edges.

How are corner cuts on a bath screen decided?

A corner cut is a notch taken off a corner of the glass. On a fixed bath screen, and on the fixed panel of a fixed and hinged screen, the hand of the screen decides which edge can take them:

• Left hand: top left, bottom left, or both.
• Right hand: top right, bottom right, or both.

A cut on the other edge is refused and the configurator tells you why. If the hand is not set, the first corner cut sets the edge. Our guide to left and right hand doors explains how to work out the hand, viewed from outside.

Does a bath screen need wall brackets?

This depends on the layout and the width. Our 700 mm rule applies to the fixed bath screen and to the fixed panel of the fixed and hinged screen:

• Up to 700 mm wide: no holes. The panel is held by U-channel only, with no option to add a hole.
• 701 mm and over: two holes are added automatically, 200 mm from the top and 200 mm from the bottom, 20 mm across with their centres 33 mm in from the wall edge, for two SWGC83300 wall brackets, plus the U-channel.

The rule does not apply to the single hinged panel or the folding screen. Those stay as they are. On 8 mm glass the channel is SWCH15X15X15, and on 10 mm glass it is SWCH20X15X20. See hinges, channels and seals for the hardware and its finishes.

How do I measure for a bath screen?

1. 1

   Step 1: Measure from the bath rim

   The screen stands on the rim of the bath, so take every height from the rim, not the floor.

2. 2

   Step 2: Measure the width at three heights

   Measure across the space the screen covers at the rim, at waist height and at the top. Keep all readings and confirm the finished pane size for the selected fittings.

3. 3

   Step 3: Measure the height at both ends

   Measure from the rim to the top of the screen at the wall end and the open end. Keep both readings and confirm the final pane size and any allowances.

4. 4

   Step 4: Check the wall for plumb

   Hold a spirit level against the wall and note how far it leans over the screen height.

5. 5

   Step 5: Say what your figures are

   Tell us whether you are giving the opening or the exact glass size, so the fitting deduction is not taken off twice.

Our shower screen measuring guide has the full method. We cut to your bath, not to a standard size. If the ceiling over the bath slopes, read raked panels under sloping ceilings.

Do corner cuts move the bracket holes?

A corner cut must clear the actual obstruction and remain compatible with the support arrangement. A corner cut on the wall edge does not move a bracket hole unless the cut takes away the glass where the hole would be. Read fixed-panel bracket holes for how that works, and keep the final hole positions on the approved drawing.
