Tips and tricks for selecting and fitting sealing profiles
Choose the right seal profile based on the measurements you have for your shower. You should always know the glass thickness as well, as this is crucial for a precise fit. This ensures the seal profile fits perfectly and no water can splash out of the shower. If you have a quarter-circle shower, you can find a curved profile for your enclosure by measuring its radius. To help you determine this, we have a section called “Expert Tips”, where you can find the relevant advice. We supply these spare parts in both vertical and horizontal versions.

Frequently asked questions about shower seal profiles
What types of seal profiles are available for showers?
For glass showers and shower enclosures, there are various sealing profiles available for vertical and horizontal applications. These include, for example, sealing lips, sliding lip seals, magnetic seals, hollow-chamber seals and curved sealing profiles for quarter-circle showers. The appropriate design depends on the specific shower and installation situation.
What glass thickness do I need for my sealing profile?
The thickness of the glass is an important factor to consider when choosing a seal, to ensure that the seal profile sits securely on the edge of the glass. Depending on the profile, shower seals are available, for example, for glass thicknesses of 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm or 8 mm. You should therefore measure the thickness of the glass as accurately as possible before placing your order.
When should a shower seal be replaced?
It is advisable to replace the seal if it is porous, damaged, heavily discoloured or no longer provides a sufficient seal. Hard water, soap residue, cleaning products and regular use can cause shower seals to wear out over time.
Are there any sealing profiles available for curved showers and quarter-circle showers?
Yes, specially curved sealing profiles are available for quarter-circle showers and other curved shower enclosures. The radius of the shower enclosure is one of the factors to consider when selecting the right profile. You can find guidance on how to calculate this correctly in the ‘Expert Knowledge’ section.
Can I fit a new shower seal myself?
Many seal profiles can be fitted by the user themselves and simply slipped onto the edge of the glass. It is important to use the correct profile, the right glass thickness and ensure a clean cut. Duschdichtungsprofile.de also provides instructions and a video guide for DIY installation.
