Bath Screens

A bath screen adds a touch of class as a replacement to a shower curtain along with a much more efficient way of containing water in your bath or shower area. A quality screen will present an image of style to your bathroom. Our screens come in a variety or shapes and styles including bifold screens which neatly fold away when not in use giving full access to the bath. Single hinged bath screens are also an alternative if you are short on space.

We offer bath screens to suit everyone's budget - so there's no excuse to keep with your tired old shower curtain a day longer!!! Our folding bath screens are highly robust, innovative and have water tight hinges for style, practicality and durability.

Cheap Bath Screens

Prices can vary considerably between the ranges and as with most things it is probably advisable to get the best you can afford within your budget. Most manufacturers of shower screens have a budget or value range and also offer a premium range of screen.

Styles of bath screens

Bath screens come in two main types - Fixed panel bath screens and folding bath screens - and there are several shapes and sizes of screens within these categories. Fixed panel screens are attached to the wall via a channel and then can pivot outwards (and sometimes inwards) to allow for entry and cleaning of the bath and screen. The channels are usually chrome or white although in some countries where gold is still quite popular in bathroom design the channel can have a gold finish. A seal runs horizontally along the bottom of the screen and it is the which prevents water running down the screen and out along the out side of the bath.


Below is an example of a folding bath screen (in this instance a 4 fold bath screen) and a fixed panel bath screen (on the right).

  

Materials Used in Bath Screens

Bath screens are comprised of toughened safety glass (to BS 6262) and are either clear or frosted glass (or a mixture of the two to create a pattern or semi-shielded effect).
The bottom seal is usually comprised of a plasticised rubber material and the chrome channel strip is usually aluminium and then coated in the desired finish.

Cleaning a Bath Screen

Cleaning your bath screen need not be a chore, just a simple wipe over on a daily basis should be enough to ensure your screen and it's fitting and fixings remain as good as the day you purchased them. Be careful not to use any cleaning agents which may scratch the glass (for example never use scouring powder). Cream cleansers are excellent for glass surfaces as these are gentler on the surface while still being able to remove tough stains and greasy films. Vinegar is also an option for glass but some people don't like the lingering after smell. Finally bring your screen to a stunning polish by buffing it with a polishing mitten (you can buy these from car accessory shops).
