Fiber-Fab® offers three choices of
entry curb heights for accessible product. The following is a
guide in selecting the proper shower curb for the required
application. |
|
|
Standard
Handicap Shower Bottom
When installing a Fiber-Fab® shower in places where the lip
height is not critical, our standard bottom is the strongest
and most economical choice. A ribbed, pre-leveled bottom plate
supports the base of the shower every two inches, eliminating
the need to mud set, grout, or glue the bottom of the shower
to the sub-floor. This bottom is often used in areas where the
curb height is not crucial or on concrete floors where
recessing is not an issue.
Curb Heights:
• 38" Transfer Shower: 1-3/8" lip.
• 40" Knock Down Transfer Shower: 1-3/8" lip.
• 48" handicap 1-1/2" lip.
• 60" roll in shower: 2" lip.
• ADA Compliant 63" roll in shower 1-5/8" lip.

Low
Profile Option
Fiber-Fab's Low Profile unit offers a lower curb as is
designated by the "LP" after the model number. i.e.;
38H1LP
A Low Profile unit requires the drain location to be blocked
out, and fire stop issues resolved to accommodate the bottom
of the drain area protruding beneath the level of the
sub-floor. It is also suggested that the shower bottom be
glued to the sub-floor with construction adhesive. This
application is best used where recessing can not be
accomplished, and a one inch overlay of the sub-floor is
planned with materials such as "Chip Crete" or light weight
concrete.
Low Profile Curb Heights:
• 38" Transfer Shower: 5/8" lip.
• 40" Knock Down Transfer Shower: 5/8" lip.
• 48" handicap 5/8" lip.
• 60" roll in shower: 1-1/4" lip.

No
Recess Option
Available only on Fiber-Fab's 63" Roll in Shower, designated
as "NR" after the model number. i.e.; 63H1NR
In applications where recessing or Chip Crete overlay is
impractical, Fiber-Fab's "No Recess"
option is the logical
choice. The diagram below illustrates the 1/4" lip that sits
on the floor transitioning to a molded in ramp that rises up
at a rate of 2 to 1. This rise is allowed under ADA and
ANSI.
This unit is glued directly to the sub-floor and the 1/4" lip
is either feathered back into the sub-floor, or an overlay of
tile or 1/4" material is applied. The best applications are on
existing concrete floors, post tension concrete, or other
places where curb height is crucial but recessing is
impossible or impractical.
