Frameless Shower Screens Inner Melbourne

Frameless shower screens for Inner Melbourne bathrooms and apartments

Frameless shower screens are a popular choice for Inner Melbourne bathrooms because they help smaller bathrooms, ensuites and apartment renovations feel cleaner, lighter and more open.

At Famous Frameless, we custom measure and install shower screens across Inner Melbourne, including South Melbourne, North Melbourne, West Melbourne, East Melbourne, Melbourne CBD, Docklands, Southbank, Parkville, Carlton and nearby suburbs.

Inner city bathrooms often need more careful planning because of tight spaces, apartment access, compact ensuites, uneven walls, nib walls, raked ceilings and existing bathroom layouts that need a custom glass solution rather than a standard screen.

Every screen is measured after tiling and manufactured using 10mm toughened safety glass, with hardware finishes selected to suit the tapware, tiles and overall bathroom style.

Every frameless shower screen we install across Inner Melbourne 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, a diamond shape 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 across South Melbourne, North Melbourne, West Melbourne, Melbourne CBD, Parkville and Carlton can include compact ensuites, apartment bathrooms, older walls, nib walls, ledges, raked ceilings and tight access areas. Accurate final measurements are especially important when the glass needs to work around these details without making the bathroom feel closed in.

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.

Why Famous Frameless

A cleaner fit for Inner Melbourne bathrooms and apartment renovations

Every bathroom is different once the tiles are finished. We measure the final opening, check the walls and floor, then make the shower screen to suit the actual space.

Measured after tiling

We measure after the bathroom is tiled so the glass can be cut to suit the finished wall angles, floor fall and opening size.

Custom glass layouts

We can help with frameless screens, walk in panels, hinged doors, sliding systems, wall to wall screens and diamond shape layouts.

03

Hardware finish advice

Chrome, matt black, brushed nickel, brushed brass, gunmetal and gold style hardware can be matched to your tapware and bathroom style.

Access And Timing

Apartment access and renovation timing

Inner Melbourne jobs often involve apartment access, lift bookings, parking limits, builder handovers and tight renovation schedules. We can usually quote from photos, plans or rough measurements first, then complete the final site measure once the bathroom is tiled.

Before final measure

Send through photos, plans, rough sizes and your preferred hardware finish. This helps us recommend the most practical screen layout early.

After tiling

We measure the finished opening, check wall alignment, floor fall, clearances and fixing points before the glass is ordered.

Installation day

For apartments, it helps to organise parking, lift access and building access ahead of time so the installation can run smoothly.

Questions Customers Ask

FAQs

A few practical questions Inner Melbourne customers ask before choosing a custom shower screen for a bathroom renovation, ensuite upgrade or apartment bathroom.

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 your Inner Melbourne bathroom is part of a larger renovation, apartment handover or builder schedule, let us know early so the final measure can be booked as soon as the tiling is ready.

Are frameless shower screens suitable for renovations and new bathrooms?

Yes. Frameless shower screens work well in both new bathrooms and existing bathroom upgrades. In new bathrooms, the screen can be planned around the tile lines, niches, shower head position and selected tapware before the bathroom is finished.

For renovations, we can usually work from photos, plans or rough measurements first, then confirm the final size once the tiles and finished opening are ready.

When should my Inner Melbourne shower screen be measured?

Final measurements should be taken after the wall tiles and floor tiles are completed. This allows the glass to be made to suit the finished opening, wall angles, floor fall and exact clearances.

Measuring too early can cause issues if the tiles, grout lines, wall alignment or finished opening changes before the glass is ordered.

What height should a frameless shower screen be?

Many frameless shower screens are made around 2000mm to 2100mm high, but the final height depends on the ceiling height, shower head position, bathroom proportions and the style of screen being installed.

Because each screen is custom made, the height can often be adjusted to suit the bathroom. In larger bathrooms or more architectural spaces, a full height shower screen may also be worth considering for a more built in look.

What glass thickness do you use?

We use 10mm toughened safety glass for our frameless shower screens. It 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 substantial and helps reduce flex or rattling.

Which shower screen layout works best for Inner Melbourne bathrooms?

It depends on the finished opening, vanity position, toilet location and how much entry space you need. Some Inner Melbourne bathrooms suit walk in shower panels or hinged frameless screens, while tighter spaces may be better suited to a sliding shower screen, corner entry shower screen or diamond shape shower screen.

The best layout is usually decided before the glass is ordered, once the finished bathroom size and door clearances can be checked properly.

Can you install frameless shower screens in apartments?

Yes. We regularly install custom frameless shower screens in apartment bathrooms and compact ensuites. Apartment jobs often need extra attention around access, lift bookings, parking, bathroom size, existing walls and the finished tile layout.

Photos and plans are helpful at the quoting stage, especially if the bathroom is in Melbourne CBD, Southbank, Docklands, North Melbourne, West Melbourne or another inner city apartment location.

Can you replace an old framed shower screen with frameless glass?

In many cases, yes. An old framed or semi frameless shower screen can often be replaced with a custom frameless shower screen, as long as the tiles, waterproofing, walls and floor are suitable.

We need to check the existing fixing points, tile condition, finished opening and whether any old holes or silicone marks will be visible once the original screen is removed.

Can you match my tapware and bathroom fittings?

Generally, yes. We offer a wide range of hardware finishes designed to work with popular bathroom tapware and accessory ranges.

Common finishes include chrome, matt black, brushed nickel, brushed brass and gunmetal. In most cases, we can get very close to your selected fittings.

Do frameless shower screens need much maintenance?

Frameless shower screens require very little maintenance. Regular cleaning of the glass and 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.

Not sure what will work in your Inner Melbourne 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.
