Shower Curtain Rails

If you're looking for an ideal finishing touch for your bathroom; one that's both stylish and practical, then a shower curtain rail is exactly what you need. These items come in various shapes and sizes and will suit pretty much any style of room so you don't have to worry about your selection looking a little out of place.

What are my options?

There are many different shower curtain rails available, including wall and ceiling mounted versions. Our curtain rails are split into the following categories:

Curved rails: These shower curtain rails come in various shapes such as circular and oval. These options are perfect accompaniments to freestanding baths, and happen to look particularly good in traditional settings. While most are available in chrome, there are gold plated versions too which will further add to the period feel. They are usually either wall or ceiling mounted to accommodate for the placement of your bath (though some rails actually feature wall and ceiling mounting points).

U shaped shower rails: As the name suggests, these are shaped like the letter 'u'. Like other curved rails, U shaped shower curtain rails suit more traditional bathrooms and are ideal for creating a enclosure over your bath.

Straight rails: These rails simply run across the opening of the bath and are a fantastic alternative to bath screens. If you want a stylish yet affordable upgrade then a straight shower curtain rail is a great solution.

L shaped shower rails: L shaped shower curtain rails are specifically designed for corner bath installations. They usually consist of a fixed rod and an extendable rod which can be adjusted to become the ideal length for your needs.

Telescopic shower rails: Telescopic, or extendable shower curtain rails, are the same as straight rails but designed to be fully adjustable. Many utilise a twist and lock function, making them very easy to install and operate.

Curtain rings: With a curtain rail fitted, you'll need some rings in order to attach the shower curtain you've chosen. Curtain rings might not sound too exciting but they don't have to be boring at all; in fact they come in lots of funky designs which will add an extra touch of personalisation to your bathroom. Options available include colourful hooks, sleek chrome hooks, and also quirky designs such as the chrome ball curtain rings.

We strongly recommend that you take some accurate measurements of the room before buying a shower curtain rail. You need to measure the amount of clearance you have from the ceiling and also the projection from the wall.
