Product Information
Full details
The Balterley Almington Bi-Fold Shower Door is an excellent solution for homeowners and renovators looking to optimize space in smaller bathrooms or en suites. Its primary benefit is the innovative inward-folding mechanism that provides a wide entry point without needing the clearance required by hinged doors. While it offers a sleek and modern aesthetic, users should note that the shower tray is not included and must be purchased separately to complete the installation.

FAQs
Does this door include a shower tray?
No, the Balterley Almington bi-fold shower door is sold as a standalone unit, and a compatible shower tray must be purchased separately.
Can this door be installed in an alcove?
Yes, this door is specifically designed to be installed within an alcove or between two walls.
What is the height of the door?
The total height of the door is 1900mm.
Is the glass safe for family use?
Yes, it is constructed from toughened safety glass, which is designed to be highly durable and safe for residential use.
Do I need extra clearance for the door to open?
No, because the door folds inwards, it requires zero external swing clearance.
Troubleshooting
The door feels stiff when opening or closing
Check the hinges for any debris and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the moving parts.
Water is leaking from the bottom of the door
Ensure the bottom seal is correctly positioned and not damaged; replace the seal if it shows signs of cracking.
The door is not sitting flush when closed
The wall profiles may need adjustment; loosen the fixing screws slightly to realign the door frame until the magnets meet perfectly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a successful installation, confirm that your shower alcove matches the 1900mm height and 1100mm width requirements. Always verify that your selected shower tray is compatible with the frame dimensions before beginning work. Use a spirit level throughout the installation to ensure the frame is perfectly vertical, as even slight misalignments can cause the bi-fold hinges to bind. For long-term care, wipe the glass down after every shower to prevent soap scum and limescale buildup, and occasionally lubricate the hinges with a silicone-based spray to maintain a smooth folding action.
