What to do with our new bath?

gabyjane

Ok hopefully this will make sence!! our new bathroom to be has a shower in it, when we viewed the house there was no shower rail in it (new build) is there likely to be when we move in? Anyway if there is great if there isn't isn't we have 3 options, i will also add that there is storage space at the end of the bath and am concerned that everything there is going to get wet?

Option 1: have a rail across, the length it needs to go is longer than the bath though so we need a longer than normal one, does anyone know where sells them?

Option2: get a rail that i have seen from La redoute, it curves round so effectively the water doesn't splash the end of the bath and wet everything that will be stored there, there are 2 though and i can't see the difference between the angled and straight?

option3: get a screen, can't decide what's best the glass sheet or the concertina type ones? anyone got these? any good/bad points please.

Thanks.

Good evening: The Bathroom Manufacturer's Association has produced a useful guide on shower enclosures. Take a gander...you might find an answer.

The two pictures your looking at in LaRedoute of the shower rails are just generic pictures so the picture is only relevant to the angled rail.

You get loads of different shapes of shower rails these days. Even bendy ones to make your own shape.

Have a look at the pictures on this site to give you an idea of what shape rail to go for :

Hi guys thanks for the replys! well we have ordered the angled one from La redoute, i'm now thinking that the water may repel off the curtain and hit the wall where the shower head is and run off there..oh you can't win with me lol but we will put it up and see how it goes!!
Thanks again for the replys.
