I have attached a floor plan of the bathroom and shower.
I want to build an open shower (without a door). To the right of the shower, a glass panel (130cm wide (51 inches)) will be installed, while the entrance area (109cm (43 inches)) will remain open.
The shower has a 2% slope, and the plumbing connections are currently on the left wall. Does it make sense to move these connections to the wall where the shower drain is located?
Do you think this setup is sufficient to prevent the whole bathroom from getting wet while showering? Or would it be better to have a door?
Best regards

hemali200330 Dec 2018 12:53What is supposed to go at the bottom side in front of the shower?
We have 160 cm (63 inches) and a wall at the end, and water splashes a little onto the wall (maybe up to 30/40 cm (12/16 inches) high), and I always have to quickly dry the floor right outside the exit. So, I’m afraid you can only avoid splashing almost entirely with a length of at least 180 cm (71 inches). Otherwise, you have to accept that you’ll need to squeegee or dry the floor regularly. But you should also consider that guests or children may shower less carefully and end up flooding half the bathroom.

Look at the plan. It works well without a door. But a glass wall is inconvenient because it always needs cleaning; better to build a wall and tile it.
Regarding the shower fixtures, the showerhead comes with a hose and a rail. Mount the rail above the drain channel, use a long hose, and place the faucet on the side. That should work. Okay.
