But before ordering there are key questions: which type fits your bathroom? What thickness is right? Should you choose clear or frosted glass?<\/p>\n<h2>1. Walk-in (fixed) shower<\/h2>\n<p>A single fixed glass panel with no door, suited to medium and large bathrooms. It looks very clean and is easy to wash, but it needs a well-designed floor slope so water stays in.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Hinged shower<\/h2>\n<p>A door that opens on hinges like a normal door. It gives a luxurious look and wide access, but needs space in front to swing open, so it suits bathrooms with enough room.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Sliding shower<\/h2>\n<p>A door that slides on a top track, so it needs no opening space. It is the best solution for small bathrooms and tight spaces, and can have a slim frame or a semi-frameless system.<\/p>\n<h2>What glass thickness is right?<\/h2>\n<p>Most shower enclosures are made from 8 mm tempered glass, while frameless enclosures and large panels are better in 10 mm for extra stability. What matters is that the glass is always tempered, because it is safety glass.<\/p>\n<h2>Clear, frosted or fluted?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Clear: makes the bathroom look bigger and shows off the tiles<\/li>\n<li>Frosted: full privacy with soft light<\/li>\n<li>Fluted: partial privacy and a modern look<\/li>\n<li>A frosted band or print: a middle ground between privacy and transparency<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Measuring and installation tips<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Do not order measurements before the tiles and marble are finished<\/li>\n<li>Walls are rarely straight, so we measure on site<\/li>\n<li>Decide the door opening direction and the position of the mixer and shelf<\/li>\n<li>Choose moisture-resistant fittings<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to look after shower glass<\/h2>\n<p>Wipe the glass with a squeegee after every shower to reduce water spots, use a gentle non-abrasive cleaner once a week, and avoid rough metal tools on the glass and fittings.<\/p>\n<ul
