Install Wall Panels With Shower CubiclesThere are several ways of installing wall panels (or bathroom cladding as it is sometimes called) in a shower cubicle. Your exact requirements will depend on several factors including:
Another factor will be the amount of trims you wish to use. The fewer trims used the neater the finished job will look. The following example shows the components required to clad a typical 750mm cubicle. The number of panels you require will depend on the cubicle size and the size of the panels you require. Some of our panels are available in 375mm widths so 4 panels would be required in this instance. In this example the panels are being run to the top of the cubicle (not to the ceiling) so 2 pieces of capping trim would be required for the cut edges at the top of the panels as the panels are hollow and the edges would be exposed if the panels do not continue up to the bathroom ceiling.
The join between the panels at the internal corner and the join between the panels and the enclosure frame are sealed with silicone sealant. This requires reasonably accurate cutting (if cutting is required) so if you are not that confident in your cutting ability and would like a little more leeway you could opt to use trims to cover up the corners - see cubicle-Fig.3 for more information. This is a typical installation if the cubicle is already in place and the panels are being fitted over existing tiles. |
