Fixing Glass Shower Screen to wet room floor method?

Tilers Forums Official Sponsors

Hi,
I'm researching the best method of fixing a 8mm glass shower screen to a wet room floor.
Is there an adhesive that will do the job to avoid any floor penetration?
Any advice gratefully received.
 
If you use a kudos wet room screen. They have a 2mm thick strip of plastic, bonded to the bottom.
I mark the floor, masking tape round where the screen touches the floor.
Then lay a bead of Silicon on the floor and fit the glass on to it.
Clean off the excess and when dry go round with clear Silicon.
 
I do same as Chalker with any screen make! do the fix to wall mark where glass going to sit on floor place couple of small wedges between floor and glass, bed in with clear Silicon and seal all round with wedges in place, once dry wedges out and fill gap left with the Silicon.
 
I found a Silicon strip, like clear, soft rubber, in a homebase diy store. Sold as a spare part near the baths. Perfect for sitting the glass onto. Invisible when in place, and cushions nicely.
 
I've used these for years. Absolute godsend!..... Transparent Plastic setting and Distance Blocks - https://www.wholesaleglasscompany.co.uk/acatalog/Transparent-Plastic-setting-and-Distance-Blocks.html
