Black Bifold Shower Door - London

This black bifold shower door was built for a compact loft bathroom in London. It includes spring-loaded hinges, a custom reinforcement arm on a sloped ceiling, and ultra clear glass fixed using slim U-channels.

Corner Entry Bifold Shower Door

We designed this shower with two bifold doors that fold inward, creating space around the central tray when not in use.

This layout allowed access to nearby furniture and improved flow in the bathroom. These doors showcase our bifold door expertise for complex spaces.

Loft-Adapted Bifold Door System

The ceiling above the fixed screen angled sharply, so we designed a custom reinforcement arm. It was shaped to match the slope and mounted with solid brackets.

This configuration secured the panel and removed the need for side bars. It's one example of how our bespoke shower doors adapt to unusual room shapes.

Sleek Black Bifold Door Fixings

We used a slim 20mm black U-channel to mount the glass directly on the tiled tray and walls. All fixings are sealed flush to avoid interrupting the layout.

Minimalist black knobs and compact hardware matched the finish throughout. You'll find similar black shower doors in our shower enclosures collection.

Space-Saving Bifold Design

Once opened, the bifold door panels fold flat against the back wall and fixed screen. This gives extra walking space when the shower isn't in use.

This layout helps make a compact bathroom more accessible without losing stability or finish. The black bifold door hinges are spring-loaded so they auto-align when shut.

Custom Support for Sloped Ceiling

Standard support arms wouldn't work on this ceiling, so we made one with a custom bracket to fit the slope and hold the bifold door system steady.

The mount is hidden behind the sloped wall and angled inwards to stay visually light while reinforcing the corner panel of the black shower door.

Precision Bifold Door for Tight Spaces

This bifold system includes clear easy-clean glass and a transparent 10mm threshold added after install to manage water flow.

The black bifold door setup was chosen after several companies failed to find a workable layout for this space. Our solution allowed function without compromising the design.

When Will Your Frameless Bifold Shower Enclosure Be Ready?

Three-sided frameless designs require UV-bonded glass joints and structural calculations. Manufacturing time for your Frameless Bifold Shower Enclosure varies based on tiling completion.

📋 Multiple Items: Each additional shower enclosure may extend Design and Installation by approximately 1 working day. However, orders of 5+ units benefit from streamlined production processes that reduce per-unit time. We'll provide an optimized timeline for your specific project.

Tiling Ready

Simplest Process

All walls are tiled, the floor is ready for frameless glass installation. We'll capture precise dimensions for UV-bonded corner joints and proceed with glass cutting.

Site Survey 1 day
Precise measurements and photos
Design & 3D 3 days
Create and approve your frameless design
Glass Production 8 days
Cutting, tempering, and processing
Installation 2 days
Professional fitting with minimal hardware

✓ Streamlined Process: Frameless options require less time than framed equivalents - just 14 working days total with precise measurements taken in one visit.

Timeline Considerations for This Project

  • This enclosure has 7 panels that make up the complete installation plus UV-glue bonding. It's not a straightforward process, so the installation time will require two full days on site to ensure everything fits perfectly and operates smoothly.

Tiling Not Ready

Extended Timeline

Your three walls need tiling before frameless glass installation. We'll measure basic dimensions for design, then return for exact measurements for UV-bonded joints.

💡 Flexible Timeline: The waiting period begins after design confirmation (day 4) and varies based on your tiling schedule. If your tiling is completed during this early period, we can arrange the final measurements earlier and advance the entire schedule - moving final measurements, design adjustments, glass production, and installation to start as early as day 5. The total timeline shows the minimum 16 working days if tiling is ready when design is confirmed.
