Hi Les

Is it imperative that the door be centred on the rim of the tray.?

There may be others better qualified than I am to reply but provided that the door frame can be sealed to the wall tiles and the rim of the tray, whether it is exactly centred or not shouldn't matter. I have just had a look at mine and the bottom is forward of centre of the tray rim because the verticals are not symmetrical inside and out. I guess the answer has to depend on the particular door you have to some extent.

Have a look at the picture I posted and see if it helps you make up your mind.

most shower screens are set back between 10mm & 25mm from the outside edge........ But as long as your happy that wherever you set it it is watertight you will be fine.

Most shower trays have a slight raise on the outside edge so if your setting your your screen more towards the inside edge just make sure it opens and closes smoothly

Oh yeah and when it comes to runing your silicone around the shower screen just do the inside edges only (Obviously leaving the door opening so you can get in and out lol) INSIDE ONLY!
