Why have a drain in the middle of your shower floor when you
can have in against the wall? This newest drain style is my favorite!! A linear
drain is just what is says. A 2” wide x 20” to 72” in length drain that can be
placed adjacent to walls or at intermediate locations. The floor can be sloped
on a single plane to the drain, which enables the use of large format tiles and
creates interesting design opportunities.
A linear drain consists of a formed stainless steel channel
body and grate assembly. There are 3 grate options: closed design stainless
steel, stainless grate with perforations and a stainless steel plate that can
be tiled to match your floor. When the grate it tiled, it is almost
undetectable in the floor.
One of the pros of having the drain against the wall is that
you are not standing on the drain or in the way of water draining from the
shower. The ability to slope the floor away from the furthest point of the door
allows you to have a zero threshold shower that makes accessibility for people
of all ages easier.
Every client we have installed a linear drain for has loved
it. Have you seen one of these in person? Do you have one or wish you could
have one? I’d love to hear about your experience. Email me at
