Full details

This Kudos Ultimate Fold Away Deflector Panel is designed for homeowners seeking to enhance their shower enclosures by preventing over-spray and splashing. Its key benefit is creating a drier bathroom environment with a neat, space-saving design. A potential caveat is its specific handedness, requiring careful selection based on your enclosure's hinge configuration.

It conveniently folds away behind the front panel when not in use, stopping at a 45-degree angle for optimum protection.

FAQs

What is the primary function of this deflector panel?

Its primary function is to contain over-spray and splashing within the shower area, keeping your bathroom floor dry and reducing slip hazards.

Can this panel be used with any shower enclosure?

No, this panel is specifically designed for flat panel shower enclosures and is compatible with Kudos Ultimate Fixings Kits. It is also a right-handed panel.

How do I know if I need a right-handed panel?

A right-handed panel is indicated when the hinges of your shower enclosure are attached to the right side of the panel when viewed from the outside, and the panel is not folded away.

What are the glass thickness options?

The deflector panel is available in either 8mm or 10mm glass thickness.

How much space does the panel take up when not in use?

When not in use, the panel folds away neatly behind the front panel, stopping at a 45-degree angle to provide protection without significant space intrusion.

What is the warranty period?

The Kudos Ultimate Fold Away Deflector Panel comes with a 1-year guarantee.

How should I clean the deflector panel?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. A mild glass cleaner can be used, followed by drying with a soft cloth.

Troubleshooting

Panel does not fold smoothly

Ensure the panel is correctly aligned with the enclosure and check for any obstructions. Clean the hinge mechanism if necessary.

Water still splashing out

Verify the panel is in its protective 45-degree angle position. Check that the vertical seals are intact and making proper contact. Ensure the panel is not loose.

Difficulty during installation

Refer to the product's installation manual for detailed step-by-step instructions. Ensure you are using the correct fixings kit and that the enclosure is plumb and level.
