Make sure you have a good strong fall in the floor to the drain and you should be fine. I suspect there is a nifty waterproof paint that would serve well on the door though...
Would you have the width in the room to turn the toilet the other way and then budge the shower in from the door a wee bit further?

You can put a seal on the bottom of the door and have a small threshold lip on the entrance. I'd guess a sliding door would have less wear and could save space.
As has been said, make sure there is a good fall. You could also have a channel/threshold(?) drain (not this particular one, but you get what I mean)
That way you get a greater volume of water in a safe place before it drains away.99% of the time it will only be used as a toilet
That makes things easier as you don't need to get into water softeners, UFH, and strong extractors - which in our climate and size/age of buildings you probably want to make a wet room work as a main bathroom.

Does anyone know anything about wet rooms?
We need to get a little shower room and toilet on the first floor so we can rip out the downstairs bathroom and turn it into a dining room. Now that we've finished the loft I've finally started to think about it and realised my initial design was rubbish and would have left us with 2 pretty compromised spaces.
I think I've found the best solution for the amount of room we have (not much) but as it's such a small area I'm wondering how you keep the door watertight? I had a quick look online and some people say you need more space and others say it's fine (without explaining how).
99% of the time it will only be used as a toilet, it'll only be used by guest, I just need ot not to flood the house. I could push it back and have the shower on the cupboard but then there'd be a load of dead space. The way I've done it keeps my office/studio as a prper functioning space so I'm hoping it can be done?
