Too big for Silicon!

Aluminium Trim Angle?

if you're fine with the (lack of) that, if its simply a gap under the glass, how thick is the glass?
if its 10mm glass in theory at least, it is probably possible to 'squeegie' silicon under that, but i don't think its going to look particularly nice...

The sink is solved, with silicon.
But the screen however needs the gap beneath the door frame stopped up with something. It's just to stop the water washing under the door, not really structural. I think it's too big for silicon entirely and could look ugly. So maybe grout? Can that be used for a 15mm gap? or even cement which would work but seems overkill!

Hi
What is the profile of the trim, is it 'L' shape? Do they make the stuff for bathrooms (ie white coated) in particular or is it a generic Aluminium Trim?
You may be on to something here.

Cheers

Shower screens are done like this on occasion when things are a little too radical.

You can buy ally trim to many dimensions. Up to an above 100mm

Yes powder or anodised in many colours.

You can buy spray paint in many colours too. Its basically motor paint in a can I think.

You can silicon on backed with a pop rivet.
