Bath Screens

Learn more about bath screens

A bath screen is a fixed or moving glass panel that helps define the shower area over a bath. The right choice depends on the bath, the wall space and how the panel needs to move.

Single panel bath screens are a straightforward option for a shower over bath set up. Fixed bath screens stay in place and suit layouts where you want a static panel. Frameless bath screens have minimal surrounding frame for a cleaner look, while folding bath screens and pivot or hinged bath screens let you move the panel out of the way when access matters.

Typical uses

• They suit bathroom refits where a shower is being fitted over an existing or new bath.

• They also work in small bathrooms where a screen takes up less room than a curtain, and in landlord or rental refreshes where a wipe clean panel is easier to live with over time.

• They are also used on commercial washroom upgrades that need a robust, low maintenance finish.

• For straightforward shower over bath layouts, a single panel bath screen does the job cleanly.

• Where access is restricted, a folding, pivot or hinged option lets the panel move out of the way for bathing or cleaning.

How to choose the right bath screen

Work through these checks to match the screen to the installation:

• Bath size and rim profile: measure the bath width and check the rim shape so the screen seats and seals correctly.

• Available wall space: confirm there's room to fix the panel and, where it moves, room for it to swing or fold without fouling fittings.

• Opening direction: decide which way a pivot, hinged or folding screen needs to open for the user and the layout.

• Fixed or moving panel: choose a fixed bath screen for maximum splash control, or a folding, pivot or hinged option where access matters.

• Framed vs frameless: framed screens give extra rigidity and a defined edge. Frameless bath screens have fewer edges and a simpler profile, though they still rely on the fixing and seal being right.

• Compatibility and fixing method: check the screen suits the wall substrate and that you've got the correct fixings, hinges or pivot fittings for the job.

Before you order

• Confirm dimensions against the bath and wall, including height and width.

• Check that the hinge or pivot suits the opening direction you need.

• Make sure the screen suits the bath arrangement and substrate on site before you buy.

• Confirm you've got the right fixings and seals ready for installation.

• Check branch stock first, then use Click & Collect to pick up your order when you need it.

• Create an account to manage ordering across jobs.
