HOW CAN WE KEEP THE SHOWER TIDY? The large shower in our bathroom has attracted a quantity of shampoos, conditioners and body washes. What’s the smart way to contain these? JS, Leeds.

A recessed shelf inside the shower space itself is the best way to contain these products, but it needs to be factored in at the planning stage. For those of us who inherit a shower without this feature, a neat solution is a corner basket. Two models with substantial capacity are the two-tier Flow double corner wire basket, H26xW20xD20cm, in chrome-plated brass, £59, Bathstore, 0330 053 5661, bathstore.com, and the two-tier stainless-steel corner shower basket, H34xW18.5xD18.5cm, £50, John Lewis, 0345 604 9049, johnlewis.com.

WHERE CAN I FIND GLAZED DOORS WITH METAL FRAMES? A house recently featured in Homes & Gardens had an internal metal-framed glass door in the entrance hall (above). We would like a similar design for doors fitted into a brick arch between two rooms. Which company should we approach? SH, Amersham, Buckinghamshire.
