11.10.2023 / VISMARAVETRO NEWS

Choosing a shower enclosure is a pleasant and important moment, as it allows you to dream of the place in which you will be able to relax and take care of yourself.

To help you make the most of this moment, Vismaravetro has drawn up 5 rules to find the perfect shower enclosure.

1: take the measurements of the shower tray

With a meter, you need to take the measures in order to define the dimensions needed for the future enclosure and shower tray.
There are several options: if you have a niche, the glass plate will be installed between two walls; with an corner, the shower's sides will be inserted in the wall sides. When there is only one wall of support, we are talking about a walk-in, when the shower enclosure is assembled on a bathtub or a small wall, we’re talking about a low wall-mounted shower enclosure.

2: define the dimensions of the available access space

To choose the type of door opening, you need to define the dimensions of the available access space.
If the door slides behind a fixed side, it will be a sliding door: this solution is particularly suitable when there are external obstructions, such as furniture or toilets, which can hinder access to the shower, but it's also very practical because, once open, it doesn't drip onto the floor.
In cluttered or small bathrooms, we generally opt for a folding door which, once open, folds away without dripping to the outside.
If space is not an issue, then you can opt for a swing door, which is wide and has a great aesthetic impact on the ambience of the room.

The modern Walk-In wall, with no functional or visual obstacles, is the most charming solution for large spaces where the watchword is design.

3: Minimalism is imperative

To be contemporary, a glass shower enclosure needs linear structures without profiles or bulky handles. Vismaravetro is absolutely unbeatable in this sector, thanks to its minimalist collections such as Supersintesi, Flare, Serie F or Walk-In SK-In, and its design lines with frame and sliding door such as Serie 7000, Serie 8000 and Gliss, or with folding door, such as Replay.

4: choose profiles colors of the shower enclosure

When you choose a visible frame, it is better to select colored profiles of the shower enclosure in combination with furniture elements, such as accessories, finishes or bathroom fittings.

5: choose the glass of the shower enclosure

The last rule is one of the most important and it concerns the choice of glass.
Transparent for a lighting effect, polished or colorful if you prefer stylish atmosphere or, why not a printed one!
Through its digital print technology, Vismaravetro can personalize your panels with custom pictures, so it can be more original and emotional than ever.
