VIGO Meridian 34 x 62 in. Matte Black Framed Fixed Tub Screen with Clear/Fluted Tempered Glass
VIGO Meridian 34 x 62 in. Matte Black Framed Fixed Tub Screen with Clear/Fluted Tempered Glass
VIGO Meridian Framed Fixed Tub Screen — Matte Black, 34 x 62 in., Fluted Tempered Glass
The VIGO Meridian is a fixed bathtub screen measuring 34 in. wide × 62 in. high, featuring fluted tempered glass in a matte black framed finish. It diffuses natural light while maintaining privacy, making it well-suited for open-plan or naturally lit bathrooms where both aesthetics and function matter.
Key Specifications
- Width: 34 in.
- Height: 62 in.
- Glass Type: Fluted tempered safety glass
- Finish: Matte black
- Frame Style: Framed fixed panel
- Seal Type: Full-length transparent watertight seals
- Hardware: 7-layer tarnish-resistant coating
- Installation: Wall-mount, extends outward; compatible with standard tub surrounds
Glass Type Comparison
| Feature | Fluted Tempered Glass (Meridian) | Standard Clear Glass |
|---|---|---|
| Privacy | High — texture obscures direct view | Low — fully transparent |
| Light diffusion | Yes — scatters natural light softly | No — passes light directly |
| Scratch resistance | Yes — tempered surface | Varies by product |
| Safety on breakage | Shatters into blunt fragments (tempered) | Depends on glass grade |
| Visual style | Textured, modern, spa-like | Minimal, open feel |
Design Details
Painted-on horizontal and vertical black lines mimic a metal grid frame, delivering a bold, architectural look without added structural weight. The fluted texture adds visual depth and a contemporary spa aesthetic that complements matte black fixtures, brushed hardware, and tile-heavy bathroom designs.
Installation & Compatibility
The fixed panel mounts directly to any standard wall surface and extends outward to create a contained shower zone around your bathtub. Full-length transparent edge seals form a watertight barrier. Note: This is a fixed (non-swinging, non-sliding) panel — no door hardware or swing clearance is required, making it ideal for bathrooms with limited floor space.
Durability & Finish
The 7-layer hardware finish resists tarnishing under daily moisture exposure. Tempered glass meets standard safety glazing requirements, breaking into small, low-injury fragments rather than sharp shards. The matte black finish is less prone to visible water spotting than polished chrome under typical bathroom lighting conditions.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Is fluted tempered glass a good choice for a bathtub screen?
- Yes. Fluted tempered glass provides privacy through its textured surface while still allowing diffused light into the shower area. Compared to clear glass, it reduces direct visibility without the opacity of frosted glass, making it a practical middle-ground option for shared bathrooms.
- How does a fixed tub screen differ from a sliding shower door?
- A fixed tub screen is a stationary panel — it does not open or slide. Entry is gained from the open side of the panel. This eliminates track maintenance and hardware wear associated with sliding doors, but requires adequate open space alongside the tub for comfortable entry and exit.
- What are the advantages of matte black finish over chrome for a tub screen?
- Matte black finishes show fewer water spots and fingerprints under most bathroom lighting conditions compared to polished chrome. They also align with current design trends in modern and transitional bathrooms. The tradeoff is that scratches may be more visible on dark matte surfaces than on reflective chrome.
- What is the best fixed tub screen for a small bathroom?
- A fixed panel screen like the Meridian is often better suited to small bathrooms than sliding doors because it requires no track hardware on the tub deck and no swing clearance. The 34 in. width covers standard bathtub openings without protruding into the room.
- Is the glass in the Meridian safe if it breaks?
- Yes. The Meridian uses tempered safety glass, which is engineered to break into small, blunt-edged fragments rather than large sharp shards, reducing the risk of serious injury in the event of accidental impact.
