Curved Glass
Shower Screens
Curved and radius corner glass can soften the bathroom layout where a standard square glass panel would feel too sharp, bulky or visually heavy.
Glass shaped to suit the room
Curved glass shower screens use a softer radius corner instead of a standard square glass edge, giving the bathroom a smoother, more custom finish.
The difference is subtle, but visible. A radius corner can soften the outside edge of the shower and help the screen feel like part of the bathroom design, not just a glass panel added at the end.
Each screen is custom made to the finished bathroom. Glass height, radius, wall alignment, tile layout, fixing points and hardware position are all checked on site after tiling is complete.
Curved and radius corner shower screens are commonly used in walk in showers, designer ensuites and bathrooms where a standard square panel may feel too sharp, bulky or visually heavy.
When a radius corner shower screen makes sense
Curved glass works best when the shower screen is part of the overall bathroom design, not simply a practical divider. It can soften the layout, keep the shower feeling open and give the room a more custom finished look.
Softer bathroom lines
A radius corner softens the outside edge of the shower and gives the bathroom a smoother, more refined appearance.
A more custom finish
A radius corner is one of the details that makes a bathroom feel like it was considered properly, rather than assembled from standard parts.
Open walk-in feel
Curved shower panels can define the wet area without making the room feel boxed in, bulky or visually heavy.
Radius selected to suit
The radius can be chosen to suit the glass size, shower layout and finished bathroom, so the curve feels balanced rather than forced.
Curved and radius corner shower screen layouts
Curved glass can be used across different shower screen layouts, from simple walk-in panels through to enclosed radius corner screens, arched reeded glass features and over bath shower panels.
Walk-in radius panels
A curved edge fixed panel can soften a walk-in shower layout while keeping the bathroom open, minimal and easy to move around.
Radius corner enclosures
A more enclosed shower screen layout with radius glass corners, useful where the shower needs to feel softer and more custom.
Arched reeded glass
Reeded or fluted glass can create a softer feature screen with added privacy, texture and a more detailed custom finish.
Over bath curved panels
A curved or arched glass panel can give a bath and shower combination a more finished look without making the space feel boxed in.
Curved shower screen glass options
Clear Glass
Reliable, practical and the most cost effective option for many curved and radius corner shower screens.
Low Iron Glass
A clearer glass option that reduces green tint and helps lighter tiles, stone and fittings look cleaner and brighter.
Fluted Glass
Textured glass that adds privacy and detail while still allowing light through the shower area.
Made to suit the radius, not forced into a standard panel
Curved glass shower screens need more planning than a standard straight glass panel. The radius, height, fixing location, glass type and bathroom layout all need to be checked before manufacture.
Final measurements are usually taken after waterproofing, wall tiling and floor tiling are complete. This allows the curved panel to be made to suit the actual finished bathroom, rather than relying on rough frame dimensions.
During the measure, we check the shower opening, wall alignment, floor fall, tile lines, panel position, hardware locations and available access around the shower area.
This helps the curved glass sit where it should, with better alignment, cleaner fixing positions and a finished result that feels planned for the room.

Curved glass shower screen installation
Curved glass is installed in a similar way to other frameless shower screens, but the radius, fixing points and finished alignment need to be checked carefully before the glass is ordered and again during installation.
We usually install curved panels with either wall brackets or a slim wall channel, depending on the layout, glass size and finish you want. This can apply to walk in shower screens, corner entry shower screens and custom radius corner layouts.
Once the glass is in place, we check the screen from inside and outside the shower, align the panel properly, then seal the required edges neatly. The aim is a clean installation that looks planned for the finished bathroom, not forced into the space.
We install curved glass shower screens across Melbourne, including radius corner screens, arched glass panels, reeded glass shower screens and over bath shower screens where a softer glass shape suits the bathroom better than a square panel.

FAQs
Common questions about curved glass shower screens, radius corners, glass options, custom sizing and installation.
What is a curved glass shower screen?
A curved glass shower screen uses a rounded, arched or radius glass profile instead of a standard square edged panel. It can soften a walk in shower, create a radius corner enclosure or add a more custom feature to the bathroom.
What is a radius corner shower screen?
A radius corner shower screen is a type of curved glass shower screen. Instead of sharp square glass corners, one or more corners are rounded to create a softer look. This can work well in bathrooms where the glass is a major design feature or where a square corner would feel too sharp.
Are curved shower screens custom made?
Yes. The curved and radius corner shower screens we install are custom made to suit the finished bathroom layout, including the glass height, radius size, fixing points and shower screen configuration.
Final measurements are usually taken after tiling is complete so the glass can be made to suit the actual finished opening. If the floor or walls are not perfectly straight, the glass can also be cut on a rake where required.
Are curved glass shower screens more expensive than straight glass?
Yes, curved and radius corner glass usually costs more than standard straight glass because the manufacturing process is more detailed. The glass may need additional CNC work, extra planning and a more specific glass template.
The final price depends on the glass size, radius size, glass type, hardware finish and overall shower screen layout.
Can curved glass be made in low iron glass?
Yes. Low iron glass can be used for curved shower screens where a clearer, brighter finish is preferred. It is often chosen for lighter tiles, stone finishes and bathrooms where the glass needs to look as clear as possible.
Can curved glass be fluted or reeded?
Yes. Reeded and fluted glass can be used for some curved, arched and radius corner shower screen designs. It is a good option when you want extra privacy, texture and a softer feature finish.
Availability depends on the required glass size, radius and layout, so this needs to be checked before the screen is confirmed.
Can I choose the radius size?
Yes. The radius size can be selected to suit the glass size, bathroom layout and the look you want. A larger radius usually feels softer and more architectural, while a smaller radius can keep the screen closer to a standard rectangular shape.
We can help you choose the right radius size by providing to scale drawings of the shower screen before the glass is ordered. This makes it easier to see how the curve will look in proportion to the finished bathroom.
When should a curved shower screen be measured?
Final measurements should usually be taken after waterproofing, wall tiling and floor tiling are complete. This allows the curved glass to be made to suit the finished bathroom, not the rough frame opening.
Measuring after tiling also helps us check wall alignment, floor fall, tile lines, fixing locations and whether the glass needs to be shaped to suit any rakes.
Are curved glass shower screens suitable for small bathrooms?
They can be, depending on the bathroom layout. A radius corner can sometimes make the shower feel less bulky than a sharp square corner, especially in walk in layouts or tighter visual spaces.
For very compact bathrooms, a sliding shower screen or hinged shower screen may still be more practical depending on access, door swing and water control.
Do curved glass shower screens take longer to manufacture?
Curved glass can take longer than standard straight glass because the manufacturing process is more specialised. Lead time can also depend on the glass type, radius size, hardware finish and supplier availability.
If your bathroom renovation has a tight timeline, it is best to discuss the curved glass option early so the measure, drawings and manufacture can be planned properly.
Can hardware finishes be matched to my bathroom fittings?
We have over 20 hardware finishes available, so in most cases we can achieve a close match to your bathroom fittings, whether the glass is fixed with brackets or a wall channel.
Common finishes include chrome, matt black, brushed brass and brushed nickel, along with gunmetal and other specialty finishes.
