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.
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 much the same way as 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 fix curved panels with either wall brackets or a slim wall channel, depending on the layout and the finish you want. Once the glass is in place, we seal the required edges neatly and check the finished screen from inside and outside the shower.
We install curved glass shower screens across Melbourne, including walk-in panels, radius corner screens, arched glass panels and reeded glass shower screens. Wall bracket or wall channel installation, clean silicone work and final alignment are all handled as part of the installation.

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 be used to 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 variation of curved glass. It has one or more rounded glass corners instead of sharp square corners, which can make the shower area feel softer, smoother and more custom, especially in bathrooms where the glass is a major design feature.
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 radius, glass height and fixing points.
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, but not always by a huge amount. Curved and radius corner glass usually costs more than standard straight glass because of the additional CNC work and more detailed manufacturing process required.
The final price depends on the glass size, radius, glass type, hardware finish and overall shower screen configuration.
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.
Can curved glass be fluted or reeded?
Yes. Reeded or fluted glass is available for curved, arched and radius corner shower screen designs. It is a good option when you want extra privacy, texture and a softer designer finish.
Can I choose the radius size?
Yes. The radius can be customised, allowing the glass to be made to suit the look, layout and proportions of the 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 and cut on a rake if required to suit uneven walls or floor levels.
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 tight visual spaces.
For very compact bathrooms, a sliding shower screen or standard hinged layout 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, 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 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.
