The right mounting solution for your shower enclosure
Which installation method is right for your bathroom? Profile, hinges or adhesive – each option has its own advantages. Find out what matters here.
Most people aren’t aware of this – but the method of installation is the fundamental difference between various shower enclosures. And it’s always a question of design – as well as price. Elegant fitting shower enclosures require precise overmeasurements and are custom-made. Profile shower enclosures offer flexibility in assembly and can be mass-produced.
Exclusively at Kermi Duschdesign, ranges such as YANEA, LIGA and WALK-IN XB can now also be glued.
Fitting shower enclosures: frameless solutions
With frameless shower enclosures, the glass is fitted directly to the wall. Each design is tailored to your bathroom layout with millimetre precision.
Advantages:
- precise adaptation of the shower to the room
- sleek design, plenty of glass
- the higher-quality solution
- very easy to clean
Choose the minimalist option: a completely frameless design, tailored to your bathroom layout with millimetre precision. This really shows off the high-quality metal hinges and door handles to their best advantage.
As well as their elegant design, they offer significant advantages when it comes to daily cleaning.
Profile shower enclosures: framed or partly framed solutions
Shower enclosures, in the traditional sense, have a frame – also known as a profile – which helps to stabilise the structure. The wall profile is concealed by a screw connection and allows for easy adjustment to account for differences in width and slope compensation.
Advantages:
- Dimensional tolerance to compensate for unevenness in the wall
- cheaper to manufacture
- easier to assemble
The profile range from Kermi Duschdesign offers you complete freedom. Choose from high-quality single panel safety glass or Kerolan plastic glass. Smooth or textured. Crystal-clear or with a discreet privacy screen. Plus a sturdy construction that stands up to everyday use. And a high-quality profile made from anodised aluminium.
What do you want your personal sanctuary to look like? Together, we’ll find the right solution.
