  Benefits of a Low Profile Shower:
   
  • Easy Access
  • Contemporary Design

The curb height ranges from 1 1/4" tall to 2 1/8" tall depending on base size. The slope of base is 1/4" per foot and can be made in any custom size.

This style is often used when either: 1.) stepping into a high tub or over a tall shower curb is getting too difficult, or 2.) a more contemporary look is needed. Below are sketches of different methods of installation in order to get a low profile curb or a level access shower.

Low Profile Shower Installation

  • Shower base installed directly on top of the flooring
  • Shower base installed on the subfloor
  • Flooring and underlayment can be run up to the curb
  • This will make the curb height "lower"

Level Access Shower Installation

  • Subfloor is taken out
  • 2x4s are scabbed onto the side of the floor joists, 3/4" down
  • Subfloor is placed on the 2x4s, flush with the top of the floor joists
  • Subfloor is taken out
  • Floor joists are notched
  • Subfloor is replaced
