wow, I'm overwhelmed by the many inputs THANK YOU
Which installer? Have you researched whether you can find someone who can deliver the glass wall according to your specifications?
I would have to do that specifically and only this installer is an option, no other is allowed by the developer.
The only option would be to make the shower later, but that would be difficult to implement.
I also believe that glass panels should not be cut out and should only rest on one part, because otherwise I'll probably have problems somewhere, but unfortunately I don't really know.
Note one thing for sure: You only have rough dimensions in your plan. After plastering, several centimeters will be lost! For me, 2.88 m eventually became 2.83 m.
A really bad intermediate measurement for a 180 cm tub and 100 cm shower tray. And the walls still weren't straight. Bad for the shower tray. That's sometimes the case in old buildings.
...
Glass partition wall is still missing, it has to come (expensively) from the glazier. Sanitary installers only offer ugly prefabricated systems that you cannot just put against the wall.
Would it be an option for you to take a 1.70 m bathtub?
No, the wall looks great. I find it better than a glass wall directly on the tub. Or what is often offered is a floor-to-ceiling glass wall that practically stands in front of the tub or as a partition wall.
I'm aware of that, if I now take the 275.5 cm I have to (subtract plaster and tiles, will probably be ~270 cm)
180 cm tub -> results in 90 cm shower, a half high Ytong wall with 7.5 cm + tiles would then be about 80 cm shower.
Currently, no shower tray is planned.
Should one be planned? There are pros and cons.
Ok, with the pane mounted on the outside you wouldn’t need a cut in the door, but a strip of glass around the corner, where the door would then be hinged.
Can't you extend the shower? That would be the easiest.
Otherwise, I would rather raise the side wall and only install a door from the front to avoid this special solution.
If light is missing, make the side wall out of glass blocks or even the whole shower -
With Ytong I could extend the shower to any depth, up to the door, which is roughly 105 cm
That would give me an 80 x 100 cm shower.
No, sticking glass to the wall from the front or outside, I find terrible. That’s out. The glass must stand on the wall. And I also don’t find a high partition wall nice.
Don’t the ideas get better?
Attached is a picture how it will look. Whether the hinged door or the folding door inward is better will be seen.
Thanks for the picture, that’s pretty much how I imagined it.
I'm also not a fan of gluing glass to the wall because something will surely get in there at some point and then it won’t look nice anymore.
@TE. I like the arrangement in #3, even if the window is not so easily accessible because of the bathtub. Couldn’t you make the partition (glass or stone) of the shower to the left towards the entrance door and leave it open towards the bathtub? Then splashing water wouldn’t be a problem there.
That would also be an option, I think pagoni also described that in post 3 or 4.
Unfortunately, I haven't gotten around to looking at it more closely in the planner yet.
Which planners do you use?
Are there any recommendations?
