Pivot Shower Doors

The importance of choosing the correct shower door for your shower cannot be underestimated! The shower door is essential to keep the shower enclosure water-tight and to minimise the risk of water or steam damage in your bathroom. There are many different types and styles of shower door to choose from and knowing which one is most suitable for your shower before you buy will ensure satisfaction. Pivot shower doors are one option and these have the advantage of utilizing less space in the bathroom when the door is opened as it pivots part way along the framework. Pivot shower doors also tend to open outwards which leaves more room in the shower enclosure. The pivot shower door is normally finished in aluminium surround and matching handles and it is important to make sure that 6mm glass is used for the pivot door, as this is toughened to withstand wear and tear and is tested for durability.

The widths of pivot shower doors can range between 700 mm and 1200 mm, therefore making them adaptable to any size of shower. Some pivot shower doors are available with extra side panels to make a complete shower enclosure if required. There are ways of customising your pivot shower door, such as the style of hinge you fit which can add a subtle touch to your enclosure. Choosing a pivot shower door from a reputable manufacturer will ensure a lifetime guarantee on the majority of doors, therefore giving customer satisfaction and peace of mind.
