Shower tray trim?

Post image

If I was going to add a trim to the corner of this shower tray, to stop water spilling out, can I get an “L” shaped one which will connect to both of the glass screens?

If you have that much water in your shower it isn't draining correctly.

I know what you mean. But I’ve checked the levels and they look right, and the drain itself seems to be coping (I’ve checked with the drain cover off and it’s not topping out).

The flow is very high from the shower, which is nice, but possibly too high so I could throttle it back. When I do that, I can still make it spill over, if I direct the shower head towards the back of the cubical. Normally one wouldn’t do that, but I’d like to guard against it.

You need a trim for the bottom of the door. It wraps around the door and has a slanted flexi lip. Acting as a slope for water running down the door to run away and then acts as a wiper when opening the door. Pretty sure you need roughly 6-9mm off clearance to apply them.

Edit: a fixed trim would interrupt with the door and inevitably trip someone over.

It’s not actually a door, it’s a splash screen.

You can get a shower threshold. Come in around 2 meter lengths. You can mitre that corner to create an L. That’s a lot of water spilling out tho I’m not sure it’s going to help you

Yeah, not my best feature.
