Shower Screen With Black Frame

The primary condition for this room was to have a black shower door with a frame just on the screen’s perimeter. Frankly, we discussed all the simpler alternatives before choosing bi-fold. We’ve at Creative Glass Studio never manufactured frames in a bi-fold style for our black shower doors before. Of course, in theory, everything is simple and what could go wrong? Unfortunately, this was the case where I miscalculated a bit.

We made the drawings, calculated door weight and negotiated the small details of the project. Finally, the doors with black frames were made to the size we measured and installed for quality check in our workshop. However, instead of the planned half a day on the site, we had to come two more times to make alterations. Our frames have magnets recessed into them to hold the door in a closed position, but this was not enough to keep the middle on the site. The issue was that doors in the centre continued to move back by 1-2cm because of the shower door seals, and they didn’t align flat with the threshold. Therefore, we had to carve out a small metal flat bracket with a magnet that presses the middle and fixes both doors when closed. In fact, this did not affect the product’s final look, and the client was satisfied. However, it is worth admitting our mistakes; we failed the first attempt. Fortunately for us, the client was very patient.
