Walk in Shower enclosure in NI?

Hi Folks,
We're doing up a house and I have a dream of a walk in shower enclosure. They seem to be quite reasonable on the internet but a lot of firms still charge loads to deliver here which is a pain. I'd also much rather use somewhere local if I could. I'm looking for a walk in shower enclosure which doesn't have a sliding door, just panes of glass.
Thanks!

when you mentioned you don't want to 'have a sliding door, just planes of glass' I hope you're aware that this will mean you'll be making the shower area into a mini wetroom. You'll have to sink the shower tray into the floor and tile over it. So you'll need people experianced in building wetrooms.
just something to consider.0 -

Not necessarily Pretani. See here. Basically having 2 screens, either angled or curved means a door isn't necessary. It does take up more room though.0 -
I am sure I saw one of these (or something very like it) in either B&Q or Homebase last year,.
Here's some at B&Q

Point taken GA, I mistakenly thought Bat Cat wanted the shower tray hidden, like this:0

Thanks folks!
Yes, it is a walk in shower I'm looking for, not a wet room. Those all look great!
Cheers,
