The Araxis handle is the central part of the vertical stainless steel profile: When the enclosure closes (silently, thanks to a damping system that absorbs any sliding noise), the handle “disappears” into the upright, which becomes integral again. Made without PVC gaskets, it is available for niche and corner installations with a fixed side. The Araxis shower cabins are made of Stainless Steel, a metal that guarantees elegance and durability. Besides being strong and non-deformable over time, Stainless Steel offers natural protection making it particularly suitable for humid environments and in contact with water.
Integrated handle in the corner profile
The Araxis sliding door has a handle that integrates and aligns perfectly with the corner profile of the shower enclosure, completing a stainless steel frame that enhances the surprising transparency of the extra-clear tempered glass.

Tailored precision
The perfect alignment between handle and profile is obtained by fixing the handle onto the glass after pre-assembling the cabin. This operation is repeated for each individual shower we enclosure produce, combining technical expertise and a tailored approach.
A perfect joints system
Thanks to the custom design of each model, the upper crosspiece fits with millimetre precision into the vertical profile of the cabin. The crosspiece has two long, perfectly engraved laser-cut designs. The fixed front glass panel is inserted onto the outermost part and the sliding door moves behind it on the innermost slot.
Fluid movement and silent closing
The door slides smoothly along the track in the upper crosspiece, assisted by a guide in the lower part that keeps the 8 mm tempered glass in the correct position. The soft close system cushions the impact between the handle and the profile: contact is gentle and without sudden noises.
The soft close system
The vertical profile houses the glass of the sliding door and a silicone bumper softens the end of the stroke and the contact between the 8 mm glass and the stainless steel profile.
A system of guides for perfect stability
Inserted in the upper track, the glass is free at the bottom and is held in place by a guide in the centre of the floor profile.
Dam profile for optimal water tightness
The sliding door glass closure is completed by an end position guide located at the corner of the frame where the vertical and horizontal profiles meet on the floor. This profile acts as a dam to prevent water from escaping. The profile adapts to any type of shower tray.
More hygiene and zero stress, without PVC gaskets
The horizontal dam profile is higher than the lowest part of the sliding door.The precise fit of the door in the vertical profile that houses it, the overlapping of the two glass panels and their insertion in the upper crosspiece rails are the further technical features that ensure perfect water tightness without the use of PVC gaskets. This choice ensures greater hygiene and eliminates the need for periodic replacement of the gaskets.
8 mm extra-clear glass
As standard for this collection of shower enclosures, the extra-clear 8 mm glass combines the thickness-based solidity with a brightness and clarity that make them almost invisible even when the two panels overlap. An ideal solution for a shower enclosure with an essential line and particularly suitable for combining with partial matt of the glass, available as an option.
