Product Information

Full details

This Balterley end panel is designed for homeowners looking to achieve a clean, modern aesthetic in their bathroom by concealing bath plumbing and undersides. Its key benefit is providing a seamless finish with its sleek square design and integrated plinth, available in multiple colours for coordination. A potential caveat is that it's specifically designed for straight shower baths, limiting its compatibility with curved tubs. Key features include durable MFC construction, easy installation and removal, and a matching range of furniture.
