ᐅ What Type of Shower Enclosure Is Most Practical?

Hello everyone,

I would like to ask for your experiences or advice regarding a shower enclosure.

Attached is the floor plan of a small bathroom with a shower. To the right of the shower, there is a side opening of 1.27 m (50 inches) leading into the bathroom. What kind of shower enclosure would be suitable here?

1) A fixed glass panel, for example 67 cm (26 inches) wide.
This would leave a passage width of 60 cm (24 inches). Is that enough?
This would cover 97 cm (38 inches) of the shower area on the right. Is that sufficient?
Or would water then splash into the bathroom in the remaining 60 cm (24 inches) where the open entrance is?

2) Or is a glass sliding door with a fixed glass section needed, allowing for a passage of about 60 cm (24 inches)?

3) Any other ideas?

Thank you in advance for your input.

On the wall of the shower area, opposite the shower, there is something drawn that looks like a chimney. If that is a projection, the 60cm (24 inches) passage will be tight.

Go to the glazier and have a custom-made unit with a fixed panel and a hinged door made to measure. That costs hardly more than a DIY store solution.

The projection is a floor and ceiling penetration. In the finished shower, only the smooth facing wall is present.

EDIT:
I have revised the image and removed the supposed projection.

Hello

Main bathroom or guest shower?
What are the diamond-patterned surfaces in the shower?

We have something like option 1, and it works well. After showering, you just need to wipe away about 30 spots, and everything is fine. It’s better than doors with seals, joints, etc. We don’t have any glass or a door at all, which makes it wonderfully low-maintenance.

Only one wall next to the sink. Frosted glass or covered with satin film. Any car wrap specialist can do this inexpensively. No door, nothing else. That’s enough. Bet on it?
