Case Study: Gold Aluminium Sliding Door Shower Screen Installation in Midge Point, Queensland
When a homeowner in Midge Point, Queensland set out to upgrade their bathroom, they wanted a solution that would combine durability, functionality, and a touch of luxury. Their existing shower setup was outdated and lacked both visual appeal and practicality. To bring their vision to life, they engaged Russcos Glazing to supply and install a custom sliding door shower screen tailored to their space.

The shower screen was manufactured to precise dimensions of 2030mm x 1735mm, ensuring a perfect fit within the existing shower recess.

Russcos Glazing followed a detailed and professional process to ensure a flawless result.
1. Site Measure and Planning
Accurate measurements were taken to confirm the required size of 2030mm x 1735mm. This step ensured the shower screen would fit seamlessly within the space, avoiding gaps or misalignment.
The team also assessed wall surfaces and floor levels to prepare for installation.

The glass panels were cut and prepared to meet safety standards, ensuring strength and reliability.

Russcos Glazing ensured the door operated effortlessly, with no sticking or misalignment.
