Celebrating its 40th anniversary, Lakes has launched Lakes 8+® — an innovative new collection of shower doors developed to redefine the appearance, movement and everyday experience of the modern shower space.
The Lakes 8+® collection is now live on TruBlue alongside the brand’s established shower doors, bath screens and shower trays, including Wave, Roku® and Modular Walk-In.
This gives bathroom designers and sales teams convenient, reliable and around-the-clock access to Lakes product information within the software they use to develop designs, prepare quotations and present bathroom options to customers.
Redefining Shower Spaces
Lakes 8+® comprises two distinctive door types, each built around state-of-the-art operating mechanisms designed in the UK specifically for the UK bathroom market.
The collection was developed following consultation with bathroom showrooms, installers and designers, helping Lakes understand how shower enclosures are specified, installed and used in real homes.
Every detail and aspect of day-to-day use has been carefully considered, combining timeless elegance with innovative technology to deliver what Lakes describes as an ‘Elevated Showering Experience’.
Controlled Movement, Elevated Design
At the heart of Lakes 8+® are the brand’s patented door-operating mechanisms. Designed to deliver flawlessly controlled movement and dependable performance, they allow every glide to feel quiet, smooth and composed.
This transforms an essential piece of bathroom functionality into a more refined experience while retaining the practicality, durability and ease of use expected by customers, designers and installers.
A broad palette of colours is available from stock, providing options that coordinate with many leading brassware brands also available through the TruBlue platform.
“Every detail has been meticulously considered, blending timeless elegance with innovative technology to deliver an Elevated Showering Experience.”
A Coordinated Palette Of Finishes
The Lakes 8+® collection is available in a carefully selected palette of colours designed to coordinate with many of the leading brassware brands used across contemporary bathroom projects.
With Lakes and numerous complementary bathroom brands available through TruBlue, designers can more easily develop cohesive specifications in which shower enclosures, brassware and surrounding finishes work naturally together.
This gives retailers greater flexibility when responding to different design preferences and helps customers visualise a more complete, considered bathroom scheme.
Lakes 8+® Soft-Close Sliding Shower Door
The Lakes 8+® Soft-Close Sliding Shower Door features a patented mechanism that controls both opening and closing, creating a consistently smooth, quiet and controlled glide.
Its slimline styling incorporates a super-low bottom profile, creating an accessible step-in and step-out doorway that supports ease of use without compromising the enclosure’s clean appearance.
A distinctive handle and quick-release door make cleaning more straightforward, while fully concealed fixings contribute to a minimal and carefully resolved aesthetic.
The door is suitable for both alcove and corner installations, giving retailers and designers flexibility across a wide variety of bathroom layouts.
Confidence Backed By A Lifetime Guarantee
Lakes’ confidence in the quality of the new collection is reflected in its genuine Lifetime Guarantee, which protects every door and component part.
For retailers and their customers, this provides valuable reassurance that the collection has been designed and manufactured with long-term reliability in mind.
It also supports the premium positioning of Lakes 8+®, giving sales teams a compelling combination of design, innovation, practicality and dependable aftersales assurance.
40 Years Of Showering Experience
For four decades, Lakes has built its brand and reputation through consistently high manufacturing standards, skilled employees and a commitment to continuous innovation and improvement.
These principles remain central to the business today and have helped Lakes establish a strong position within the bricks-and-mortar bathroom retail market.
Alongside its established retail presence, the company also serves the residential housebuilding and hospitality sectors, bringing its product quality and showering expertise to a diverse range of projects.
Lakes 8+® brings this experience together in a forward-looking collection shaped by the practical knowledge of the showrooms, designers and installers who work with showering products every day.
Lakes And TruBlue
Lakes has long recognised the importance of giving designers and sales teams reliable, around-the-clock access to product information when preparing and presenting bathroom options to customers.
Making Lakes 8+® and the brand’s established collections available through TruBlue places that information within a familiar KBB design and sales workflow.
Retailers can access the product details they need while developing bathroom designs, exploring specifications, preparing quotations and presenting suitable options to their customers.
This reduces the need to search across disconnected sources or manually maintain product information, helping sales teams work more efficiently and present Lakes products with greater confidence.
Accurate Information At The Point Of Design
Having dependable Lakes catalogue information available within TruBlue helps retailers specify suitable products as part of their everyday workflow.
Designers and sales teams can consider Lakes products alongside other bathroom brands available on the platform, making it easier to develop coordinated schemes and prepare accurate customer quotations.
This creates a more efficient route from the initial design conversation through to a completed bathroom specification, while giving Lakes a direct digital connection with the retailers actively presenting and selling its products.
In the coming months, Lakes will continue strengthening and improving its product content to create an even richer and more useful experience for retailers working with the brand through TruBlue.
Strengthening The TruBlue Bathroom Portfolio
The arrival of Lakes 8+® further strengthens the selection of bathroom products available through TruBlue and gives retailers access to an innovative new collection from an established British showering brand.
As the TruBlue supplier network continues to develop, retailers benefit from a more connected ecosystem built around dependable catalogue information, efficient specification and easier access to the brands they sell.
For Lakes, the collaboration provides an established digital route into the KBB retail market, making its collections easier for designers and sales teams to discover, specify, present and sell as part of live customer projects.
We are delighted to support Lakes during its 40th anniversary year and look forward to helping more bathroom retailers discover and work with Lakes 8+® through TruBlue.
