Do I need a shower tray with this screen?
Yes, the shower tray is sold separately. This wetroom screen is designed to be installed with a suitable wetroom shower tray or a properly waterproofed and tiled floor.
What tools are needed for installation?
While specific tools may vary depending on your wall type, common tools include a drill, spirit level, measuring tape, screwdriver, and sealant gun. A detailed instruction manual is provided with the screen.
Is the support bar essential for stability?
