Before installing a shower door our team of installers will talk about what you re looking for in a shower.
How do you install a shower door over a bench.
A curb design which is the one you must step over as you enter the shower or a curb less design where the shower and the surrounding bathroom floor are at the same level.
Once the rough top has been added install the pan liner and moisture proofing along the bottom of the shower pan.
For example while a simple shower curtain is sufficient for keeping water off the bathroom floor a custom shower door provides added functionality and elegance.
Put the finishing touch on your shower door installation.
It may seem like a second rate detail but once you have it installed you ll wonder how you ever went without.
If you re in shower planning mode i m sure you ve considered hardware type of finish shape size and the like but there s one thing that may have skipped your mind.
Curbed designs are easier and cheaper to install than curb less and they work better than its counterpart at keeping the water inside the shower.
Place end caps on the tops of the wall channels.
Place the glass clamp sweep into place on the door s bottom edge and secure it at the door clamp.
Once the bench has been properly framed install the plywood rough top.
The shower pan liner should be installed along the top of the bench.
Your floor substrate is flat your shower floor should be sloped.
