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.
