Hi all,

I’ve had two en-suites formed and tiled as part of a full house renovation / extension. Could anyone please advise whether this current set up is suitable for a shower door installation.

My main concern in both rooms is that on one side, the tile only overhangs the tray by the thickness of the trim (10mm). On the other side, there is plenty of overhang.

The tray used is a Merlyn level 25. I have attached photos of one set up and would be grateful for any advice. In this room, the tray size is 1200x800. The opening is 680mm.

Thank you

Most are 700m wide but you could try to go with a frameless design which are smaller. Not what you want to hear, but it would have been better to fit the frame and then tile, given you are 20mm too small now.

Thanks for your reply. In terms of the opening width of 680mm, this isn't a concern as I have found doors that work. My concern is that given there is only 10mm of trim over the tray on one side (3rd picture), how can an enclosure be secured over the tray and onto this trim?

I hope this make sense

You will need a threshold strip, but really the problem is the tray is not lined up with the opening, so you will need a wide one and hope that you can correct some of it in the positioning.
