Shower Side Panels
What is a shower side panel used for?
A side panel for shower can be utilised in various ways depending on your bathroom wall layout and needs.
Corner Installations: Combine one front shower door with one shower door side panel to enclose an open corner space.
Alcove Installations: Alcove spaces surrounded by three solid walls only require a door from our Shower Doors collection, while open corner spaces require a dedicated shower glass side panel.
Walk in Shower Enclosures: Simply choose the shower panel you prefer and turn the space into an open-plan walk-in shower.
Replacing Damaged Panels: Replace a worn or damaged shower door side panel to refresh your shower without replacing the entire door frame.

What things to consider before ordering a shower side panel?
Before placing your order, review these key points to ensure your new panel fits seamlessly:
Layout Check: Verify whether you have a three wall alcove or an open corner layout. Alcove spaces only need a door, while corners require a dedicated shower door side panel.
Matching Door Height: Check that the panel height of 1850mm matches your front shower door so top edges align evenly across the top.
Matching Glass Specs: Ensure the shower glass side panel matches your front door glass thickness of 6mm for uniform strength and profile fitting.
Tray Width Alignment: Measure your tray accurately. Our fixed glass shower side panels come in 700mm to 900mm widths to sit securely on standard Shower Trays.
Door Style Compatibility: If you are fitting panels with shower door then confirm your front door mechanism. Fixed side panels pair seamlessly with sliding, hinged, or pivot shower door frames.
