Fitting a shower screen over a bath with uneven edges

[Kim123]

Hi, any advice will be appreciated as I am not a great DIYer and may have to just get a bathroom fitter/plumber in instead.

I will be replacing the taps in my very small bathroom and also looking to fit a folding (possibly 4 fold as it will fold in smaller), 1000mm width frameless screen over the bath - changing from the use of the curtain.

I was thinking frameless as the room is already small and I heard that its easier when cleaning.

However the end of the bath has a small tiled border which is not level or flush with the bath and protrudes around 5-8mm above.
To the left of the bath, the tiles protrude about 8-10mm and the basin is 5.5 inches away from the bath on this same side.

What do you think will be the the most effective and neatest way to go about ensuring the screen is flush/operable?.

I am also not too sure what I need to be avoiding or looking out for with the type of screen, to ensure the best fit in such a small area.
What depth glass would you recommend out of 4-6mm?

I have attached some pictures to give you an idea of what I'm working with.
Many thanks

You need to look at shower screens that have a fixed panel for that raised bit.

Hi Mottie and thanks for the reply. So the option of a folding screen is still possible though?

Possibly - just look for one with a fixed first (wall edge) section or just don’t fold the first section. Have you looked at two piece screens - first section about 300mm fixed and the second section @700mm or the width of your bath so it folds back to the wall. That’s what we have.

Food for thought. I will look into it.
Many thanks
