Offset Quadrant Shower Enclosures:Why They're Popular

Would an Offset Quadrant Shower Enclosure suit my bathroom? An offset quadrant shower enclosure differs from the standard quadrant shower enclosure and the clue is of course, in the name. Offset Quadrant shower enclosures come in different sizes, with one or two door options. A clear distinction of the Offset Quadrant shower enclosure is its generously proportioned showering space. Measuring 900, 1000 or 1200mm in length, and 760, 800 & 900 in width, the amount of space the offset quadrant shower enclosure occupies can be easily customised to your available bathroom space. An Offset Quadrant shower enclosure is configured with a right or left hand option, and in some cases, requires a bespoke shower tray. A convenient and safety-conscious feature of the Offset Quadrant shower enclosure is the smooth running sliding doors, allowing an easy entry and exit to the shower, preventing water drips that may occur with "open-out" type shower doors. Offset Quadrant shower enclosure frame colours are generally white, silver or chrome with a choice of clear, frosted or patterned glass. The variety of frame and glass options, along with the Offset Quadrant's sleek and minimalistic design, allows the enclosure to tailor effortlessly into most bathroom design schemes. Some popular suppliers of Offset Quadrant shower enclosures and Offset Quadrant shower enclosure trays in the UK are Manhattan Showers, April Shower Doors and The London Water Closet Company (LWCC). These manufacturers' products can be found in local bathroom stores across the UK or bathroom shops online.
