Framed Shower Screens
Framed shower screens use aluminium framing around all glass panels, providing excellent structural support and durability. They are a practical, cost-effective option that suits a wide range of bathroom styles — from traditional homes to more contemporary designs. The aluminium framing is available in a range of finishes, including silver, gold, and brushed chrome, allowing you to coordinate with your existing bathroom hardware and fixtures.
Framed screens are particularly well-suited to high-traffic bathrooms — including family bathrooms and rental properties — where robustness and ease of maintenance are priorities. The sealed frame design also provides good water containment, reducing the amount of water that escapes onto the bathroom floor.
Semi-Frameless Shower Screens
Semi-frameless shower screens strike a balance between the structural support of framed screens and the clean, open aesthetic of fully frameless designs. In a semi-frameless screen, the main structural panels are supported by aluminium channels at the top, bottom, and sides, but the glass panels themselves are not surrounded by heavy framing. This creates a more open, contemporary look than a fully framed screen while still providing excellent stability and water management.
Semi-frameless screens are one of our most popular options in Bathurst, offering a genuinely high-end appearance at a price point that is accessible for most renovation budgets. They work well with both modern and transitional bathroom designs and are available in a range of glass types and hardware finishes.
Frameless Shower Screens
Frameless shower screens represent the premium end of the shower screen market — and for good reason. With no aluminium framing around the glass panels, a frameless screen creates a seamlessly open, luxurious aesthetic that makes any bathroom feel larger and more sophisticated. The glass itself is the feature — thick toughened glass panels supported by minimal hardware fittings, creating a shower enclosure that is as beautiful as it is functional.
Frameless screens require thicker glass (typically 10mm toughened) to provide the necessary structural rigidity without frame support and higher-quality hardware fittings to ensure smooth, reliable operation over time. Jackson Glass & Aluminium selects quality glass and fittings for all frameless installations, ensuring your investment delivers lasting performance. Frameless screens are ideal for master bathrooms, high-end renovations, and any space where you want the shower to be a design highlight.
The Custom Measurement & Installation Process
Every shower screen installation begins with an on-site measure. We come to your bathroom, take precise measurements of your shower recess or enclosure, assess the wall surfaces and floor for levelness and any irregularities that may affect the installation, and discuss your preferences for glass type, hardware finish, and style. From there, we fabricate your custom screen to the exact specifications of your space and return to install it with minimal disruption to your household.
Custom Shower Screen Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to have a custom shower screen made and installed?
Lead times for custom shower screens vary depending on the style, the glass specification, and current workload. In most cases, the process from measure to installation takes approximately one to two weeks. We will give you a realistic timeline when you book your measure, and we will keep you informed throughout the process. Contact us at 02 6331 1680 to discuss your timeline, and we will do our best to accommodate your schedule.
What type of glass is used in shower screens?
All shower screens supplied by Jackson Glass & Aluminium use toughened (tempered) safety glass, which is required by Australian Standards for shower enclosures. Toughened glass is significantly stronger than standard float glass and, in the unlikely event that it does break, it shatters into small, relatively harmless pieces rather than dangerous shards. Standard framed and semi-frameless screens typically use 6mm toughened glass; frameless screens use 10mm toughened glass for the additional rigidity required without frame support.
Can you install a shower screen in an awkward or non-standard space?
Yes — this is exactly where custom-made shower screens have a significant advantage over off-the-shelf products. We measure and fabricate every screen to the specific dimensions and configuration of your shower recess, which means we can work with spaces that are not perfectly square, have angled ceilings, or have other non-standard features. During your measure appointment, we assess the space thoroughly and design a screen solution that works within its actual dimensions and conditions.
Is a frameless shower screen harder to keep clean than a framed one?
Frameless shower screens are generally considered easier to keep clean than framed alternatives, because there are no aluminium channels or frame profiles to collect soap scum, mould, and mineral deposits. With fewer hard-to-reach crevices, wiping down a frameless screen is straightforward. The main maintenance consideration is regular treatment with a squeegee after use and periodic application of a quality glass treatment product to reduce water spotting. We can advise on appropriate glass cleaning and protective products during your installation.
