Custom shower screens solve design problems that standard screens can’t, like uneven walls, tight layouts, or poor drainage. They’re made to fit your bathroom exactly, reducing leaks, improving usability, and avoiding costly tile or plumbing adjustments during installation.
Standard shower screens don’t work for every bathroom, and too often, homeowners find that out the hard way. Whether your tiles aren’t level, your walls aren’t square, or space is too tight for a swinging door, a generic screen can create more problems than it solves.
That’s where custom shower screens come in. Built to fit your bathroom’s exact shape, layout, and finish, they eliminate common issues like water leaks, poor door clearance, and mismatched trims.
We design custom screens for real homes, whether you’re in Campbelltown, Mount Annan, or Camden, ensuring each installation addresses space, drainage, and style in one clean solution.
In this guide, we’ll explore the common bathroom challenges these screens solve and why precision matters more than ever in modern renovations.
The Problem with Standard Shower Screens
When homeowners choose off-the-shelf shower screens, they often assume they’re getting a convenient solution. In reality, these screens can create more issues than they solve. Many standard models don’t align with the existing wall angles, plumbing fixtures, or floor fall direction.
The result?
Gaps where water escapes, doors that don’t open properly, and screens that require costly modifications during installation.
We’ve seen cases where a homeowner purchases a standard screen, only to find it impossible to install without tearing out tiles or rerouting existing plumbing. These frustrations are common and preventable. That’s why we focus on build-to-order shower screen solutions that account for all these real-world design variables.
Water Leakage Is a Silent, Recurring Issue
A major issue homeowners deal with is water collecting at the base of the screen or seeping out onto the floor. It often appears minor at first, a few drops here and there, but over time, it leads to grout damage, swelling skirting boards, and slippery surfaces.
Our semi-frameless and frameless options are designed with configurations that seal more effectively, especially when paired with the correct threshold and fall direction.
Many of our custom installations include water stops or discreet seals that help reduce spillage without compromising appearance.
If you’re also dealing with poor drainage or need a watertight solution in areas like Campbelltown or Oran Park. We design screens for these exact cases.

Odd Wall Angles? We Work With That, Not Around It
Not all walls are perfectly square. Many bathrooms, particularly in older homes or renovated spaces, feature angled, uneven, or recessed walls. Trying to install a straight-edged glass screen into a non-square space results in gaps, instability, or worse, cracking during installation.
We build screens to exact measurements, including adjustments for sloped walls or out-of-square corners. If you’re located in areas like Narellan or Mount Annan and have a bathroom tucked into a corner or under stairs, you’ll likely need this level of precision. That’s where our in-house manufacturing plays a key role in delivering a safe, snug fit.
Small Bathrooms Require Smart Solutions
In compact bathrooms, every millimetre counts. A screen with a swinging door might block access to the vanity, while sliders can often feel bulky if not correctly positioned. We build with the room flow in mind, often recommending frameless sliders or fixed panels that maintain visual openness without sacrificing usability.
One particular customer in Glen Alpine came to us after struggling with a narrow ensuite that had no room for a pivot door. A frameless sliding panel, custom-cut to fit around a window ledge, solved the problem entirely, no tiles lost, no layout compromises.
To see how we offer these combinations, take a closer look at our custom shower screen configurator, where layout types like front-only or diamond entry are available.
Design That Matches More Than Dimensions
Style mismatches are another hidden problem with pre-made screens. When the metal trim clashes with your tapware or the glass shade doesn’t match the rest of the bathroom, the entire space can feel disjointed.
We provide a wide range of powder-coated frame options and fittings that allow you to match your screen with what’s already in your space, not just the walls, but also the fixtures, cabinetry, or splashbacks.
Whether you’re based in Leumeah, Camden, or Spring Farm, we understand that colour flexibility isn’t just about appearance, it’s about making your space cohesive.
Quality Control Starts in Our Workshop
When you buy a screen built by a third party, you’re relying on layers of contractors and fabricators. We handle it all in-house. From glass cutting to aluminium frame assembly, everything is completed by our team. This gives us complete control over the outcome, and it means you can trust the finished product will meet both your measurements and expectations.
Our semi-frameless models use 6mm toughened safety glass, while frameless panels are made with 10mm, in compliance with Australian Standards. We’re committed to safety, not just looks.
If you’re in areas like Eschol Park or The Oaks, where onsite conditions vary drastically, in-house builds ensure your screen will be built specifically for your site, not forced to fit.
Frustrated by Failing Seals? You’re Not Alone
One of the most common frustrations we hear from clients in places like Harrington Park and Bradbury is seal deterioration. With store-bought screens, cheap seals often become brittle, crack, or peel, especially when exposed to daily heat and steam.
We use quality seals that are designed to handle regular use and humid environments without peeling. Plus, because we fit them ourselves, we make sure they’re properly aligned, no gaps, no loose edges.
Supply-Only or Fully Installed, Your Choice
Some of our clients prefer to handle installation themselves, particularly trade professionals or experienced DIYers in areas like Macquarie Fields or Gledswood Hills. We offer supply-only models with full instructions and all the hardware included.
For others, our team handles the full process, from the first measurement to the final glass polish. Either way, the quality of the screen stays the same.
If you’re interested in pricing without surprises, we also offer fixed-price custom builds so you know exactly what you’ll pay, whether you’re after a pivot door, sliding panel, or fixed return configuration.
