Product Information
Full details
The Balterley 1600mm Front Bath Panel is designed for homeowners and professional installers looking to achieve a seamless, polished look for their bathroom renovation. It provides a clean, smooth finish that hides plumbing while framing the bathtub for a modern aesthetic; however, users should ensure the panel dimensions perfectly match their specific bath model before purchase, as it is non-adjustable in length.

FAQs
Is this panel compatible with all 1600mm baths?
While designed for standard 1600mm baths, it is essential to check your specific bathtub's fixing method and depth to ensure full compatibility.
Can the panel be cut to fit a smaller bath?
It is not recommended to cut the panel significantly, as this may compromise the structural integrity and the finish of the edge.
Does it come with a guarantee?
Balterley products typically come with a standard manufacturer's warranty; please refer to your retailer's specific documentation.
How do I clean the panel without scratching it?
Use a soft microfibre cloth and warm soapy water. Avoid scouring pads or abrasive chemical cleaners.
Is this panel water-resistant?
Yes, it is designed for bathroom environments and is resistant to splashes and humidity.
Troubleshooting
Panel appears slightly uneven
Check that the floor and bath frame are level; you may need to adjust the leveling legs of the bath before re-attaching the panel.
Visible gaps between panel and floor
Use a flexible bathroom-grade silicone sealant along the base to create a clean, watertight finish that fills small gaps.
Difficulty aligning with fixings
Pre-drill guide holes in the panel frame using a low-speed drill to ensure screws go in straight without cracking the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting installation, ensure that your bath frame is level and securely anchored. Align the panel with the bath's edge and mark the positions for fixing clips. The panel can be trimmed slightly if necessary, though it is designed for a standard 1600mm reach. Use a non-corrosive adhesive or screw system recommended by your bathroom fitter to secure it to the frame. For care, simply wipe down with a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive household cleaners. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents that might dull the smooth finish or damage the panel material over time.
