STEIGNERShower Screen Seals: seal every gap on your glass screen
A frameless glass shower screen only seals as well as its profiles. Screens leak in three places: at the door, along the base where the glass meets the tray, and at the wall. Each spot has its own seal, matched to the glass thickness.
For frameless shower screens, walk-ins, glass panels and bath screens from 4 to 10 mm glass.
Not sure which seal you need?
The configurator takes you to the right shower seal in under 90 seconds — by shower type, glass thickness and door type.

The three sealing points of a glass shower screen
Door: a magnetic seal (pivot) or lip seal (sliding) closes the vertical gap. Base: a bottom seal with a wiper lip stops water running out under the glass onto the floor. Wall and side panel: a U-channel or wall profile closes the glass edge to the wall, and on a walk-in a water deflector returns run-off to the tray.
Leaking screen? Watch with the water running to see which edge it escapes from — that tells you which profile to renew.
Glass thickness sets the profile
On frameless screens the glass thickness is decisive: 8 mm is today’s standard, 6 mm is common on older units, and 10 mm appears on large walk-ins and panels. Measure with a caliper and pick a profile with the right tolerance. Curved and folding screens use profiles shaped to match — check the shape as well as the size.

Frequently asked questions
The 3 most common questions, answered.
How do I stop a shower screen leaking?+
First find the leak point (door, base or wall), then renew the matching profile: a magnetic or lip seal at the door, a bottom seal at the base, a U-channel or wall profile at the wall. Push-on strips are simply swapped: pull the old one off, clean the channel, cut the new strip to length and push it on. The configurator helps you pick by glass thickness and shape.
Which seal for a glass shower screen door?+
A magnetic seal for a pivot door, a lip seal for a sliding door — each matched to the glass thickness (4/6/8/10 mm). Combined with a bottom seal at the base, the door is watertight all round. Our configurator suggests the right profile in under 90 seconds.
Why does water run out under my frameless shower screen?+
Usually the base seal is missing or its wiper lip has worn. Frameless screens often have only a slim profile with a lip to the tray at the base — once it goes hard or slips off, water runs onto the floor. A new bottom seal in the correct glass thickness fixes it reliably.
