Chrome Edging Strip?

[Pooky67]

Can anyone find me some flat, thin, chrome strip?

I'm just finishing redoing the bathroom and have installed a recess shower door so I've now got tile edges visible from the front. I've tried painting the edges and it has improved it but I think it would look better to just cover the edge with some chrome of some description. I just don't know where to find what I'm looking for. I don't mind if it's real metal, polished aluminium, or painted uPVC type stuff but where to look? something around 1.5mm deep x 25mm wide x 2.4metres long would be spot on

Any ingenious ideas?

I guess you've tried looking at what you can get in the local tile suppliers to see what they have, you can various different edge trims to cover tile edges but usually these are fitted during tiling, Look something like this :



Failing that you could get a local steel fabricators to cut you some stainless to the size you require.

Any chance of a picture of the edge/gap your trying to cover, it might be easier to suggest an alternative for covering it

Yep, any tile shop or DIT shed B&Q will sell those.

Two tile trims edge to edge should get you to 25mm or thereabouts.

We've used the above to edge our dark grey tiles in our bathroom and it looks really nice.

Got ours from Wickes for not many £££'s

A company called tileasy used to do the very thing in a stainless effect- alas, I can't remember if it was plastic or metal, but from memory, it was 27mm wide, and could be fitted after tiling- use no more nails or similar to fix.
