Handicap Showers Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I access your handicap showers in a wheelchair?
• Yes, we have wheel in shower thresholds as low as ¾” high and once a tile floor is installed on the bathroom floor the curb will be ½” or less.
How will the water stay in my walk in shower?
• Our low curb handicap showers are available with a rubber water retainer that when correctly installed with our weighted shower curtain prevents the water from escaping out of the shower. This collapsible threshold allows the unit to be accessible to a wheelchair, yet springs back into shape preventing water from leaking out of the shower & eliminating the need for a floor drain outside our handicap showers.
How will I get my handicap shower into my bathroom?
• Our handicap showers are shipped in separate panels consisting of 4 or 5 separate pieces. Not only does this make transportation easier and less costly but also allows for any of our walk in showers to be easily transported into the bathroom area regardless of how small the door openings might be.
