Default Shower Screen

When I get around to it I fancy a walk in shower with a screen that
has a sort of flipper narrow hinged door at one end (a sort of spray
deflector) - in other words - not a cubicle.

However, they seem to need a stay from the top across to the wall.
That bothers me as if my wife as to stumble it would probablty pull
out of the plasterboard wall and cause the tiles to be wrecked.

A ceiling support would be better but I have only seen ones that
would go vertically up to the ceiling which seems to be a bit weak. I
would prefer something like 2 struts at 45 degrees going in to 2
locations on the ceiling to give maximum support.

Or a "T" piece with two ceiling fixings - make one up that anchors
into two joists (or one joist/two places if they run the other way,
with offset as required). Weld/screw on an adjustable (i.e. hinged)
glass clamp.

Is any such thing available?
