Quadrant Enclosures

Learn more about quadrant shower enclosures

A quadrant shower enclosure sits in the corner of a bathroom or wet room with a curved front profile, combining two walls with a rounded glass screen and door. The shape is what makes it useful: the curve pulls the enclosure footprint back towards the corner, leaving a more usable floor space.

Typical uses

• Quadrant enclosures are for corner shower spaces where you need to save floor area.

• Fitting snugly into corner spaces where a rectangular enclosure won't work.

• Creating a defined shower zone in open-plan bathrooms without eating into floor space.

• Upgrading dated shower installations in residential and commercial properties.

• Specifying for new build projects where corner positioning is the natural fit.

• Replacing damaged or leaking enclosures with a like-for-like solution.

How to choose a quadrant shower enclosure

• Quadrant shower enclosures come in a range of sizes, so the right choice depends on your actual corner dimensions. 

• Measure the width, depth and available ceiling height before ordering, then check those measurements against the product specifications.

• Smaller enclosures suit tighter corners, while larger ones give more showering room where space allows.

• Common configurations include pivot doors, sliding doors and fixed panels, so you can match access and space requirements. A pivot door hinges outward and gives a more traditional feel, but needs clearance in front to open. A sliding door runs along the curve and opens without any outward swing, which makes it easier to use in tight spaces. 

• Choose based on the access and clearance you have around the enclosure.

Before you order

• Check the measurements, the fit and the extras before you place the order.

• Verify that the corner is genuinely square and plumb, as out of true walls affect fit and sealing.

• Check water pressure and drainage are adequate, as some trays work better with certain waste configurations.

• Confirm the substrate condition, as tiles, acrylic or other surfaces affect the fixing method.

• Establish whether you're removing and disposing of the old enclosure as part of the project.

• Check the product specifications for the frame finish and glass details before you order.
