Material & Finish Review
Materials
- 304 stainless steel: review water exposure and cleaning products.
- 316L stainless steel: assess chloride exposure and maintenance requirements.
Finishes
- Brushed or polished surfaces, subject to sample review.
- PVD colour options, reviewed with the substrate and wet-area care plan.
Selection Considerations
- Match profile geometry to the specified glass thickness and hardware clearances.
- Review drainage exposure, standing water and cleaning chemicals before selecting 304 or 316L.
- Agree brushed grain, polished appearance or PVD colour through a finish reference.
Drawing & Fabrication Workflow
Review the enclosure
Submit opening drawings, glass thickness and the hardware schedule.
Coordinate profiles
Review corners, seals, drainage interfaces and finish references.
Confirm the quotation scope
Agree metalwork supply, inspection points, packaging and the project schedule.
For Contractors & Installers
- Confirm finished opening dimensions after wall and floor build-up.
- Identify who supplies glass, seals and hardware.
- Coordinate waterproofing and drainage with the installation team.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which stainless steel grade should I specify?
Review water chemistry, cleaning products and exposure with the project team before choosing between 304 and 316L.
What drawings are needed for a quotation?
Provide elevations, profile sections, glass thickness and hinge or seal details so the metalwork interfaces can be reviewed.
Can a coloured finish be considered?
Review a PVD colour reference, substrate preparation and cleaning plan before confirming a finish for the shower environment.
