Low Profile

Low-level showers are ideal for those who can manage a small step of around 30-40mm, offering a safer and more comfortable shower experience. In contrast, level-access showers provide complete level access, making them suitable for wheelchair users or anyone who needs barrier-free entry. Step-in showers, with a tray height above 60mm, are suited to individuals with enough mobility to step over a higher edge and are a practical solution for flats or multi-storey buildings where floor modification is not feasible.

The main difference between a low-level and a level access shower tray is the height of the shower tray. A low-level shower tray can be between 30-40mm in height, whereas a level shower tray is completely level with the floor. Both options improve accessibility; however, level showers typically take more time to install as floor modifications are often needed to ensure proper drainage and waterproofing.

A low-level access shower allows users to enter the shower area with a minimal step-over height. On average, they are between 30-40mm high, but they can also be recessed and fitted flush to the floor to make them even more accessible.
