Anyone aware of such a thing, - - right now the customer has a tub with an L-shaped shower curtain rod, - - because there's no end-wall at the foot of the tub, - - and no room to build one because the toilet is located there and only has the 30" minimum width now, - - they want shower doors installed to get rid of that ugly curtain set-up, - - but like I say, - - there's no wall to recieve one end of the doors.
The customer says they're OK if I build a wall right on top of the end of the tub, - - but I'm not about to do that.
It's already (obviously) a small bathroom, - - and from a design-standpoint a standard 'wall' would close it in even more.
But I was thinkin', - - if there's no such thing as a 'wrap-around' shower door set (which I know I've never heard of), - - I might be able to 'finagle' buying two sets of doors, - - and make somethin' work out of the two sets of framework, - - and 3 of the 4 doors. Only thing is, - - I'm sure I would have to get the 'end-panel' glass door re-cut, - - because I would think it would be about 3" or 4" too wide, - - because they're made to overlap each other (and the existing tilework is a mud job), - - meaning I've got about a 28" space to work a glass door (and the metal frame) in.
I could actually just get a glass shop to make a glass door, no problem, - - but I'm figurin' their going to want fancy designer doors, - - and it would obviously be nicer if the 'fixed-end-panel' matched the set.
Then again, - - I guess I could just 'contrast' the glass.
Anyone got any ideas on this small 'design challenge'? Or maybe someone's familiar with a company that makes such an animal?
Hmmm, - - glass block wall as a second choice, maybe?, - - but what about the weight of it?
Oh, - - sorry, - - it's your turn!!
