Nope
So.... Caveat emptor!

That explains why some of the reviews say the shower tray is wrong size or not of a standard dimension
Exploding shower screen time... Worth the £150 saving over something with a British Standard??
I would agree with you all, seems iffy. Worth noting that they specifically say that glass isn't covered by the 'lifetime' warranty.
As it happens, I was in Wickes getting some pipe and I noticed a shower door ( still in it's box and wrapped) that had been returned as it was "not required due to change of plan" by the buyer. £255 down to £100, so I grabbed it. Whether it fits or not is another matter, it is going to be right on the line at 1165mm which is the same as the recess width.
As these doors are a 'slot fit' regarding the frame to the wall profile, is there any additional wiggle room to be gained by shaving some of the frame profile down, even by a mm or so?

Hope that recess size is tiled finish size!
I've just fitted a bi-fold door to a nominal 860mm aperture, its spec read 850 - 890 mm fitment. Of course the tiles weren't straight! Neither was the stud wall to one side, so minimum measurement was 848mm. As you (the OP) suggested, taking a file to the inner frame made it possible to fit it.
It is.
That's good to know, as it should be just a shave......
