10mm Clear Toughened Glass
Hole drilled for fittings
Wall to glass 90 degree hinge blackIs this the right service for your job?
Choose this when a corner shower needs two framed sides and a hinged door.
- If you want a clear corner without a frame, see the Corner Shower Enclosure with Door. The panels meet without a metal post.
- If the opening is wall to wall, compare the Framed Shower Partition with Door. It needs no corner return.

When a corner enclosure is the right shape
A corner enclosure suits a shower that sits in a corner with two sides open to the room, instead of running along a single full wall. It also suits a shower marked off with a tray or a stepped floor.
A corner is where an out-of-square wall shows most. If the two walls do not meet at a true right angle, the frame takes up the difference inside its channel.
The frame also gives a clean edge against tiling that is not perfectly even. So it is a sensible choice when the bathroom is being refreshed rather than fully re-tiled.
What the enclosure is built from
The frame is slim aluminium, powder coated in matte black. It runs at the walls, along the floor and up the corner.
The two glass sides are toughened, which is safety glass. The frame holds their edges, so they can usually be thinner than a frameless enclosure needs.
The corner post is what makes this different from the frameless L-shape. It joins the two panels and makes the enclosure stiff. You can see the post, so it is worth knowing that before you order. If you want a corner with no post at all, look at the frameless L-shape instead.
The door is hinged in the front panel and opens outward, with black hinges and handle. A water seal runs along the door edge, and silicone seals both walls and the floor line.
How the enclosure is fitted
Send photos of both open sides and rough sizes. We usually come back the same day with a range.
We measure once your tiling is finished. We check both wall angles, the corner, the slope of the floor towards the drain, and how the glass will reach the bathroom.
You get a written price with the glass, the frame, the fittings and the labour on their own lines. An advance covers the materials. Most jobs are done in 3 to 4 days from measuring to fitting.
Fitting is a single day. The frame goes up and is levelled first, because everything else depends on it being straight. Then the glass, then the door, then the sealing. Wait about 24 hours before using the shower.
Why two enclosures at the same rate cost different amounts
Because the rate is per square foot of glass, and two enclosures of the same shape can carry very different amounts of glass and frame.
A taller enclosure has more glass. Two unequal sides have more frame per square foot than two equal ones. And a bathroom with an out-of-square corner needs more careful setting out, which takes longer on site.
The finish matters too. Matte black is our stock colour and adds nothing. A special colour adds cost and a few days for the coating.
The written price shows each of these on its own line. So you can see exactly which part of your enclosure is driving the number.
