Bathrooms around Footscray can vary from older homes and compact apartments through to newly renovated townhouses, so each shower screen is designed around the finished tile layout, wall angles, door clearance, bathroom layout and overall style.
Every screen is measured after tiling and manufactured using 10mm toughened safety glass with quality hardware finishes designed for long-term durability, clean lines and everyday use.
A frameless shower screen result that felt solid, practical and beautifully finished
“Famous Frameless did an impeccable job on our frameless shower door, splashback and arch mirror. Dmitri and Josh were professional, knowledgeable and easy to communicate with from start to finish.
They talked us through all the important considerations for our double shower frameless hinged door and gave excellent advice on the specifications, including future-proofing for accessibility. As first-time renovators, we really appreciated that they took the time to explain the options clearly and answer all our questions without making us feel rushed.
We were also quite anxious about the possibility of leakage given the large shower area, but Dmitri talked us through the options, took very detailed measurements, and the result is excellent. We now have virtually no water escaping, which reflects the care and technical precision of their work.
The quality of the finish is fantastic. The shower door, splashback and arch mirror all look beautiful, feel solid, and have really elevated the bathroom. They were punctual, had our bathroom items ready ahead of schedule, worked efficiently, were polite and respectful in our home, and cleaned up afterwards.
Overall, we found Famous Frameless reliable, detail-oriented and very skilled at what they do. We are really happy with the result and would definitely hire them again.”

Measured after tiling for a cleaner and more accurate fit
Every frameless shower screen we install in Footscray and West Footscray is custom measured and manufactured to suit the finished bathroom layout rather than using standard off the shelf sizing.
Whether the bathroom requires a sliding shower screen, hinged shower screen, walk in shower panel, an over bath shower screen or a full height frameless shower screen, measuring after tiling helps achieve cleaner wall alignment, more consistent glass gaps, smoother door operation and neater silicone finishes.
Bathrooms around Footscray can vary from older homes and compact apartment bathrooms through to new townhouse renovations and larger double showers. Accurate final measurements are especially important when the glass needs to work around ledges, niches, shelves, hob details, floor fall or uneven walls.
We also offer different glass and hardware options including standard clear glass, low iron glass, narrow reeded glass, as well as finishes including chrome, matte black, brushed brass and brushed nickel.
Frameless shower screen installation in Footscray
From final site measure through to installation, each Footscray shower screen is made to suit the finished bathroom layout, tile layout and selected hardware finish.
Bathroom tiling is completed
Final site measurements are usually completed once waterproofing, wall tiling and floor tiling have been finished.
Site measure is carried out
We inspect wall alignment, floor fall, ledges, niches and door clearance before the glass is ordered.
Glass layout and hardware are selected
The shower screen configuration, hardware finish and glass type are confirmed to suit the bathroom layout and overall design style.

Replacing an old pivot door with a frameless sliding shower screen
In this Footscray apartment bathroom, the existing pivot door shower screen was awkward to use because the door opened out toward the toilet on the left hand side. The overall distance wall to wall was around 1140mm wide, and the open door clearance was just over 500mm, which was enough for shower entry, but the swinging door made the space feel tight.
The old screen was replaced with a custom frameless sliding shower screen finished with chrome hardware. The new layout provides a similar practical entry into the shower, but without a door swinging out and hitting the toilet. Visually, the new frameless shower screen absolutely transforms the space, making the bathroom feel cleaner, lighter and far more open.

Clean finished result

Nano glass coating for easier everyday cleaning
For clients who want to make ongoing maintenance easier, we can apply a protective Nano coating to the shower screen glass after installation.
The coating helps water, soap residue and mineral deposits bond less aggressively to the glass surface, making routine cleaning quicker and more manageable over time.
- Helps reduce water marks, soap build up and staining
- Makes the glass easier to wipe down after use
- A practical upgrade for bathrooms used every day
- Best applied when the shower screen glass is new

FAQs
These are some of the most common questions customers ask before choosing a custom shower screen for their Footscray or West Footscray bathroom renovation.
How long does it take to manufacture a frameless shower screen?
After final measurements are completed, manufacturing and installation is typically finished within 6 to 10 working days. If you are working to a tight renovation timeline, let us know early so we can plan the final measure as soon as the Footscray bathroom is ready.
What is the standard height for a frameless shower screen?
Many frameless shower screens are made around 2000mm to 2100mm high, but the final height depends on the bathroom layout, ceiling height, shower head position, tile lines and the style of screen being installed.
Because our screens are custom made, the height can often be adjusted to better suit the finished bathroom rather than being limited to a standard pre-made size.
Do frameless shower screens require maintenance?
Frameless shower screens require very little maintenance. Regular cleaning of the glass, along with occasional wiping of the seals and hardware, is usually enough to keep the screen looking clear and operating properly.
If anything needs adjusting during the warranty period, we can come back out and sort it. Seals and silicone are considered consumable items, so they are not covered under warranty as they wear with normal use over time.
What thickness glass is used in frameless shower screens?
We use 10mm toughened safety glass for our frameless shower screens. This gives the screen a solid, stable feel while keeping the clean frameless appearance and meeting Australian safety requirements.
Compared with thinner glass used in many framed screens, 10mm glass feels more solid and helps reduce flex or rattling.
Can a frameless shower screen be added to an existing bathroom?
Yes. In many cases, a frameless shower screen can be added to an existing bathroom without a full renovation, provided the tiles, waterproofing and fixing points are suitable.
This can be a good option if you want to replace an older framed screen, update the bathroom visually or improve access without changing the whole room.
At what stage of the bathroom renovation should a frameless shower screen be measured and installed?
Final measurements should be taken after the wall tiles and floor tiles are completed. This ensures the glass is manufactured to the finished opening and fits properly with the correct clearances.
You can still contact us earlier with plans, photos or rough measurements so we can help guide the layout before the bathroom is ready for final measure. Measuring after tiling is important because even small changes to tile thickness, wall alignment or floor fall can affect how the glass fits.
What type of shower screen is best for small bathrooms?
For smaller Footscray bathrooms, sliding shower screens, corner entry shower screens and over bath shower screens are often practical options because they can help save space.
A sliding shower screen usually needs a minimum opening width of around 1200mm. If the space is smaller, a 3 panel semi frameless slider may be used as an alternative.
Walk in panels can also work well in some compact bathrooms, but the layout needs enough depth and correct fall to manage water properly.
Do frameless shower screens add value to a home?
A frameless shower screen can help make a bathroom feel cleaner, newer and more finished, which is useful for both living in the home and preparing it for sale or rent.
It is a visible upgrade that often reads as higher quality than an older framed screen or shower curtain, especially when the glass and hardware are matched to the rest of the bathroom.
Can you match my tapware and bathroom fittings?
Generally, yes. We offer a wide range of hardware finishes to help match popular bathroom tapware and accessories.
Our finishes are selected to closely align with brands such as Meir, Nero and ABI Interiors, making it easier to achieve a consistent look across your bathroom.
Common finishes include chrome, matt black, brushed brass and brushed nickel, along with gunmetal and other specialty finishes. In most cases, we can get very close to your selected fittings.
Do you install frameless shower screens in Footscray?
Yes. We install custom frameless shower screens in Footscray and nearby inner west suburbs including West Footscray, Maidstone, Braybrook, Maribyrnong and Yarraville.
Still not sure what will work in your Footscray bathroom?
Send through a few photos, rough measurements or plans and we can help recommend a practical shower screen layout before the glass is ordered.
