Shower cabin seals are essential components for maintaining cleanliness, safety, and functionality in your bathroom. Made from high-quality PVC, these seals consist of a hard part that slips over the glass and a soft fin that prevents leaks.
They ensure that water stays inside the shower enclosure, preventing damage to floors and ceilings, and minimizing the risk of slipping on wet surfaces. By replacing worn-out seals, you can maintain a clean, safe, and watertight shower enclosure.

How to Choose the Right Gasket
When selecting a gasket for your shower enclosure, consider the following factors:
- Glass thickness
- Installation location (horizontal or vertical edge)
- Length of the fin
- Type of gasket (ordinary, magnetic, or self-adhesive)
- Shape of the enclosure (square or semi-circular)
Replacing a Shower Gasket: Step-by-Step
- Check the Size
- Ensure the gasket matches your glass thickness and length. If it’s too long, it can be trimmed to size.
- Remove the Old Gasket
- Pull the old gasket carefully to keep it intact, making it easier to measure and cut the new one.
- Cut the New Gasket
- Use the old gasket as a reference to mark and cut the new one with a knife or gasket-cutting tool.
- Prepare the Glass
- Clean the glass thoroughly with water, rinse well, and dry completely.
- Install the New Gasket
- For ordinary or magnetic gaskets, slide the gasket onto the glass edge and check the fit.
- For self-adhesive gaskets, peel off the adhesive backing and press firmly into place.
- Test and Adjust
- If the gasket doesn’t fit, do not cut it—you can exchange or return it.
Additional Tips
- Allow gaskets brought from cold environments to warm up before installation for better flexibility.
- Regularly clean the gasket with bathroom cleaning fluids to prolong its lifespan.
Shower Thresholds
For additional protection, consider replacing the bottom seal with an acrylic threshold. These transparent, nearly invisible thresholds prevent overflow and water seepage behind the shower area, offering an extra layer of protection.
