The shaped bath in our Aberdeen bathroom has a curved sliding screen at its wider showering end, with fitted storage beside the basin. The curve and the sliding movement belong to the same decision. They influence where you can stand to use the shower, and where you can stand beside the bath when reaching in, rinsing it or helping someone bathe.
When comparing screens, ask to see the bath with the screen fully open. Look at how much of the rim remains reachable, and whether a cupboard, toilet or radiator takes up the place where you would naturally stand. Try the reach from the floor beside the bath, as well as from inside it. These checks help choose a screen that fits the bath and still leaves practical access for the moments when nobody is standing under the shower.
