You need shower block.

Generally if the shower door is of a reputable manufacturer they would stamp their name on it , and hence you may be able to source their parts .
On that one , unless you are very lucky of course, its a new one you need .

Edit , door

Did you manage to get one Kirkybingo? We have just had exactly the same problem

Regrettably not as I can't identify the manufacturer

Hi All,
Had the same problem so I made a replacement and printed on my 3D printer.

Here's a .zip with the STL (3d file) and GCODE (3d Print file) for the hinge. I printed and fitted - works fine.

Hope this helps
Chris.

I'll add this one I re-created in 3D is the top hinge. Bottom one of course is flipped sides - the STL should be able to be tweaked to make the bottom hinge if you need that one. OR if you get stuck, give us a nudge I can help I'm sure.

Hi Chris,

Just wanted to check that this was the top hinge? The image from the file is showing part number 1255A, not 1256A.

Hi, yea top hinge. It printed fine, still holding today.

Hi mate, fitted fine.

What material did you get it printed in?

Think mines was done in ABS and the pin just snapped this morning. About a month it lasted.

Cheers.
