Featuring 6mm toughened safety glass and a sleek chrome frame, it offers a sophisticated aesthetic suitable for both recess installations and corner setups with an additional side panel.

FAQs
Does this product come with a shower tray?
No, the 1850X1100mm dimension refers to the shower door unit only.
Can I install this in a corner?
Yes, but you will need to purchase a compatible side panel separately for corner installation.
What is the glass thickness?
The door is manufactured using 6mm toughened safety glass.
Is the chrome finish prone to rusting?
The chrome finish is designed to be moisture-resistant, but it should be kept clean and dry to prevent long-term corrosion.
How many people are required for installation?
We recommend at least two people due to the weight and fragile nature of the toughened glass.
Troubleshooting
Door does not glide smoothly
Check the rollers for debris or obstruction and adjust the tension screws on the roller assemblies.
Water leaking from the bottom
Inspect the bottom seal strip for damage and ensure the silicone sealant along the base profile is intact.
Door is not closing flush
Re-adjust the wall profiles to ensure the door frame is perfectly level and vertical.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Balterley Ruwa shower door should be performed by someone with experience in plumbing and glass handling. Before starting, ensure your walls are plumb, as minor deviations can affect the smooth operation of the sliding mechanism. Use high-quality silicone sealant around the base and vertical profiles to prevent leaks.
- Compatibility: Ensure your shower tray is level and measures exactly 1100mm wide where the door is to be installed.
- Maintenance: Wipe the glass down after every use with a squeegee to prevent limescale buildup.
- Cleaning: Use a non-abrasive, mild bathroom cleaner for the chrome frame. Avoid harsh chemicals or scourers that could scratch the finish or the glass surface.
