Fluted Glass Shower Enclosure - London

This beautiful fluted glass shower enclosure shows why reeded glass is so popular in British bathroom design. The vertical lines give you privacy while letting light through, creating a smart solution that works well with both old and new bathroom styles.

Why Choose Fluted Glass

This inline fluted glass shower enclosure shows why reeded glass is such a popular choice in UK homes. The vertical lines create privacy by making the view unclear while still letting plenty of light pass through, making the bathroom feel open and bright.

The textured surface hides water spots, fingerprints and soap marks that would show clearly on smooth glass. This practical benefit means our bespoke service creates solutions that stay looking clean with much less cleaning work.

Traditional British Style

Fluted glass has been loved in British bathroom design for over 100 years, mainly because it gives you both openness and privacy at the same time. The straight line pattern adds visual interest without being too busy, and the vertical lines make ceilings look taller.

The satin black frame works perfectly with the reeded texture, creating clean lines that work well with both traditional and modern bathroom styles. This combination shows how classic materials can be used in today's homes.

Privacy Without Darkness

The beauty of reeded glass is that it blocks clear views while still being see-through. The parallel lines spread light evenly, creating a soft glow that keeps the bathroom bright while giving you complete privacy when using the shower.

This 9.2mm laminated design is much stronger than single glass panels. The textured surface on the bathroom side hides water marks and soap spots, while the smooth inside surface makes it easy to clean with a squeegee.

Smart Space Planning

The door opens completely flat against the side wall, showing the careful space planning needed in London's smaller bathrooms. We installed a slim panel to allow the door to open fully without hitting anything on the opposite wall.

This careful planning makes sure you can access the shower easily while working within the existing bathroom layout. The fluted glass pattern also helps hide any small alignment differences that might show up with perfectly clear glass.

Shower Screen with Towel Rail

We installed a custom shower screen with towel rail that does three jobs - works as a grab handle for safety, stores towels for convenience, and looks good as a design feature. The reeded glass texture provides the perfect background for this useful element.

The vertical lines in the fluted glass work well with the straight design of the towel rail, creating a matching look. This shows how reeded glass improves rather than clashes with bathroom fittings and accessories.

Strong Laminated Safety

The laminated design joins two 4mm toughened glass panels with a protective layer in between, creating very strong glass while keeping the beautiful reeded texture. If the glass breaks, the middle layer holds all the pieces safely within the frame.

This technology makes fluted glass perfect for family shower enclosures, giving you peace of mind without losing the elegant look. The laminated design also cuts down noise, creating a quieter bathroom experience.

How Long Does Fluted Glass Shower Enclosure Take to Manufacture?

Fluted glass requires specialized processing and handling during production. Your Fluted Glass Shower Enclosure timeline includes additional time for textured glass manufacturing.

📋 Multiple Items: Each additional shower enclosure may extend Design, Assembly, 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.

Timeline Considerations for This Project

  • • We need to make a bespoke towel rail which requires custom manufacturing time.
  • • The product has satin black finish which we keep in stock, but because of the towel rail which is made from solid piece we have to anodise both the frames and the rail in the same tank to get matching finish. If not for the towel rail the frame production time could be three weeks less.
  • • It's 4mm reeded + 4mm ultra clear laminated and toughened glass which takes longer to make but creates much safer glass.
  • • The installation takes 2 days due to the complexity of this type of shower.

Tiling Not Ready

Extended Timeline

Your walls need tiling before fluted glass installation. We'll take rough measurements for design visualization, prepare for specialized glass production, then finalize measurements after tiling.

💡 Flexible Timeline: The waiting period begins after frame production (day 24) and varies based on your tiling schedule. If your tiling is completed during our frame production period, we can arrange the final measurements earlier and advance the entire schedule - moving final measurements, design adjustments, glass production, assembly, and installation to start as early as day 5 (right after design confirmation). The total timeline shows the minimum 40 working days if tiling is ready when frames are done.
