Expert Installation Hardware for Shower Trays
Why is the correct installation kit critical?
A shower tray is only as reliable as the foundation it sits on. Whether you are installing a low-profile tray on a solid floor or a standard tray on a timber joist floor, using the correct installation hardware is the most effective way to prevent future leaks, tray movement, and subfloor damage. Our collection provides the professional-grade components required to ensure your enclosure is perfectly supported and sealed.
Core Installation Categories
-
Riser Kits (Easy-Plumb): These kits allow you to raise your shower tray off the floor, creating the necessary void to route your waste pipework without cutting into the floor joists.
-
Support Frames & Legs: Essential for providing the structural rigidity needed to prevent "flex" in the tray, which is the leading cause of cracked sealant and subsequent leaks.
-
Watertight Sealing Strips: Replace traditional, prone-to-cracking silicone beads with our advanced sealing membranes that provide a flexible, waterproof barrier between the tray and the wall.
-
Waste & Trap Kits: High-flow waste solutions designed to match the drain aperture of your tray, ensuring efficient water evacuation even with high-pressure shower systems.
Technical Considerations for a Watertight Finish
-
Adjustability: If your floor is slightly uneven, always select a riser kit with adjustable legs. This allows you to achieve a perfectly level surface, which is essential for correct drainage.
-
Access Requirements: If you are using a riser kit, ensure the decorative plinth panels provided are easily removable to allow for future maintenance of the waste trap.
-
Compatibility: Always match your riser kit to the specific shape (square, rectangular, quadrant) and brand of your shower tray, as leg configurations vary significantly between manufacturers.
-
Weight Distribution: For heavy stone-resin trays, ensure your chosen support system is rated to handle the total weight of the tray plus the user, preventing long-term sagging or bowing.
