The Less Glass in your shower area the better - if you can avoid it. Eventually shower screens, no matter how effectively and often you clean them will deteriorate over time and shower signs of glass cancer. If the space allows it, effective planning can allow shower walls and other alternatives work effectively without the worry and hassle of cleaning glass. Thanks Paul

I do not need to access the door from either side, however when we sell the house it would be great to have to doors accessible to the new ownersite. The curtains look a bit too country cottage, our house is modenot retro funk if that makes sense?

Yes, I would go to the website for "Steel Shower Screens Australia" and complete a quote request http://www.steelshowerscreens.com.au/ They do some beautiful shower screens with a fine steel frame, however they are not cheap. Best of luck Dr Retro of Dr Retro House Calls

I just hope your opening is wide enough for what you want. If you need to make it wider then you will also need to consult a structural engineer for a lintel design to span the wider opening before the builder starts. You may want to do your research on stacker and sliding doors first to find a manufacturer that you like and tell your builder the colour and the manufacturer before he quotes. Don't leave it to your builder to decide as he will just get the cheapest. Get a builder to quote if you are using aluminium doors. They have to be measured precisely and ordered by the builder (who takes a risk if he makes a mistake when measuring). Do your research so you know what you want, and how it works, rather than get your builder decide based on what is easiest and cheapest to install.
