Description
Description
This range combines robust accessibility engineering with a clean, contemporary aesthetic.
Designed for use with shower trays, it features a single door and bi-fold doors — both operable from either direction thanks to AKW's unique rising butt two-way hinges.
The Silverdale Option B range is only available with a height of 900mm, width of 1420mm X 700mm and frosted PET glazing. However, you can choose whether it is left or right handed and an L-shaped curtain rail and standard shower curtain are both included.
Frames are engineered from high-grade aluminium with nylon 6 hinges and caps throughout, keeping weight low while ensuring long-term durability. Compensators provide 14.5mm of in/out wall adjustment on either side, accommodating minor wall irregularities without fuss.
A magnetic closure strip and profiled floor seals deliver reliable water retention, while ergonomic D handles and smooth latches make operation straightforward for users with limited grip or dexterity.
Note: This is a Made to Order product, which will be manufactured once your order is received and you will be advised of an estimated delivery date (usually 7 days)

How to Choose the Correct Screen
Left-handed vs Right-handed applies to rectangular trays (e.g. 1200×700mm), where one panel is longer than the other. You determine whether you need a left-handed or right-handed screen based on which side the longer door panel is located, when standing at the opening door entry corner:
- Left-handed - the longer door panel is on your left as you face the shower
- Right-handed - the longer door panel is on your right as you face the shower
