We get asked about this a lot in our showroom - customers often focus on size and door style but overlook glass thickness, and it really does change the whole feel of the enclosure.

From what we stock, the Merlyn 8 Series single door offset quadrant uses 8mm toughened glass and works brilliantly in tighter bathrooms where a swing door still fits. For anyone needing wider access without the door clearance, the Eastbrook Corniche twin sliding door option also runs 8mm glass and comes in seven size options which is handy for awkward spaces.

The 1200 x 800 offset quadrant is easily our most requested size across both brands - seems to hit that balance between showering space and not dominating the room.

One thing we've noticed more customers leaning towards lately is frameless designs. The Merlyn 8 Series frameless offset quadrant gives you that clean borderless look - just glass and hardware, nothing else. Looks stunning once fitted.

For anyone who's recently installed an offset quadrant, did glass thickness factor into your decision? And are people generally going single door or sliding these days?
