What to Consider When Choosing a New Bath Screen

When it comes to choosing a bath screen, there are several factors to consider. Here we break down the process step-by-step to help you make an informed decision.
1. Type of Bath Screen:
  • Fixed Panel: A simple, elegant option, perfect for smaller bathrooms.
  • Hinged Panel: Offers flexibility and easy access to the bath.
  • Sliding Panel: Ideal for larger bathrooms, providing full coverage and smooth operation.
  • Folding Panel: A space-saving solution, perfect for compact bathrooms.
2. Glass Thickness:
  • 6mm: A standard choice, offering a good balance of strength and affordability.
  • 8mm: A more robust option, providing enhanced durability and a premium look.
  • 10mm: The thickest and most durable option, ideal for high-traffic bathrooms.
3. Glass Finish:
  • Clear Glass: A classic choice that offers a minimalist look.
  • Patterned Glass: Adds privacy and visual interest to your bathroom.
  • Tinted Glass: Reduces glare and creates a more calming atmosphere.
4. Frame Finish:
  • Chrome: A timeless and versatile option.
  • Brushed Brass: A modern and sophisticated choice.
  • Matt Black: A bold and contemporary look.
5. Additional Features:
  • Water Repellent Coating: Helps to keep the glass clean and free of water spots.
  • Easy-Clean Glass: Reduces the need for harsh chemicals and makes cleaning a breeze.
  • Safety Glass: Ensures peace of mind and complies with safety standards.

Tips for Choosing the Right Bath Screen

  • Consider Your Bathroom Layout: Assess your bathroom layout and think about how the screen will fit into your space and how it will impact accessibility. Consider the size and shape of your bathtub, as well as the available space around it. This will help you determine the most suitable type of bath screen for your needs.
  • Determine Your Preferred Style: Think about the overall design aesthetic of your bathroom and choose a bath screen that complements it. Bath screens come in a variety of styles, from sleek and modern to classic and elegant. Whether you prefer a frameless glass screen or a folding panel design, there’s something for every taste. 
  • Select the Right Material: When choosing a bath screen, the material is an important consideration. Glass screens are popular for their durability and ease of cleaning, while acrylic screens are lightweight and budget-friendly. Consider the pros and cons of each material before making your decision.
  • Think About Installation: Ease of installation is another key factor to consider when choosing a bath screen. If you plan to install the screen yourself, opt for a model that comes with clear instructions and all necessary hardware. Alternatively, hire a professional to install the screen and ensure a seamless and secure fit.
  • Think About Your Budget: Lastly, don't forget to set a budget for your new bath screen and choose one that fits within your price range. Prices can vary widely depending on the brand, material, and style of the screen. Determine how much you’re willing to spend beforehand and look for the best deal that meets your requirements.
