Black Over Bath Shower Enclosure - London

We installed this black over bath shower enclosure in a London bathroom. The corner design goes from the off-white bath edge to the ceiling, creating a tall shower space. Our team used UV-bonded glass panels to reduce the number of wall brackets needed. This frameless setup keeps an open feel while water stays inside the walk-in floor area.

Bath-Integrated Shower Design

This corner shower blends perfectly with the existing bath setup. We placed the glass panels partly over the bath surface to create one wet area. The extended bath edge works as a bench for sitting or a shelf for storing shower products inside the shower space.

The walk-in floor matches the bathroom surface, removing any trip risks. Our custom shower solutions work with bath-mounted designs while keeping water sealed. The light cream stone surrounds the off-white bath, creating a unified look with the shower installation.

Over Bath Glass Configuration

The shower enclosure over bath needed exact glass cuts to match the tub shape. We UV-bonded two big panels at the corner for this shower above bath design. This bonding removes the need for metal brackets at the corner, so we used fewer brackets on the bath-side panel.

We added a small 90mm panel above the door to miss the ceiling speaker. The main door goes nearly to the ceiling, while this panel stops problems when the door moves. Using fewer brackets makes this over-tub shower look more frameless and cleaner.

Dual Access Shower Over Tub

The shower door opens both ways, giving easy access to this over bath setup. Opening inward, it swings about 60 degrees before it might reach the shower head. Opening outward gives full 90-degree swing thanks to the slim 100mm panel we installed on the wall with glass-to-glass hinges.

We placed this narrow panel between the door and the supporting wall. The glass-to-glass hinges connect the door to this panel, keeping the door clear of the heater when open. This setup provides full access to the walk-in shower area with plenty of room to enter.

Extended Bath Shower Integration

The glass panels have exact cuts that match this bath and shower merge perfectly. The client made the off-white bath longer just for this combined design. The extended surface gives bench seating in the walk-in shower for comfort during showering.

This setup shows how the bath becomes part of the shower, making showering more comfortable. The sealed glass-to-bath join stops water reaching the bathroom floor. The light cream stone and off-white bath create a cohesive look throughout this large shower enclosure.

How Long for Over Bath Shower Enclosure Installation?

Frameless corner installations rely on precise glass-to-glass connections and minimal hardware. Your Over Bath Shower Enclosure timeline depends on measurement accuracy and wall preparation.

📋 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

Your corner is tiled and both walls are ready for frameless installation. We'll measure the exact angles for glass-to-glass connections, then proceed directly with glass production.

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

  • The shower's large size and multiple surface attachments require accurate installation. Two large glass panels must be UV-bonded and extensive mastic work completed, making single-day installation very challenging.

Tiling Not Ready

Extended Timeline

Your corner walls need tiling before frameless installation. We'll take rough measurements for design visualization, then return for precise measurements once both walls are tiled.

Initial Visit 1 day

💡 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.
