Quadrant Shower Enclosures: Why choose one for my Bathroom?

Quadrant Shower Doors : The guide Quadrant shower enclosures come in a range of sizes, most commonly including 800mm, 900mm and 1000mm (with various shower door configurations. Another reason for their popularity is the quadrant enclosure's curvaceous, minimalistic design. Quadrant shower doors are a modern, unique, striking addition to the bathroom. The aluminium shower door frames are generally available in white, silver and chrome, and seamlessly complement most bathroom colour schemes. The glass doors also have different options available: clear, patterned or frosted, depending on your design or practical requirements. Three major UK suppliers of Quadrant Shower enclosures in the UK are Manhattan Showers, April Shower Doors, and the London Water Closet Company (LWCC) which offer various types and sizes of shower doors. These distributors' products can be found in local bathroom stores across the UK or bathroom shops online. Popular Quadrant Shower Enclosures on the Market: The 'Uno' by Manhattan is a single door quadrant shower enclosure, measuring 800 x 800 or 900 x 900, and requires its own bespoke tray. The quadrant shower door has a right or left hand option which can be tailored to the configuration of the bathroom. The Uno comes with a 'click n clean' system, which consists of front-operated bottom guides, which allows easier fitting, maintaining and cleaning.
