Shower Drains

A shower drain is not just a finish detail, it drives the layout, the slope, and how you tie your waterproofing into the assembly. This collection is built to help tile installers choose the right drain style and grab the matching parts in one place, so the shower looks sharp and drains the way it should.

What’s in this collection

• Drain bodies and assemblies
  
  Core drain components for common shower builds, including complete kits and body options meant to pair with specific shower base and waterproofing approaches.
  
• Grates and finish trims
  
  Visible grate options that control the final look, with styles that work across different tile designs and shower aesthetics.
  
• Components and add ons
  
  The supporting pieces that solve real jobsite problems, such as risers, install helpers, and replacement parts that keep the system fitting and draining correctly.
  

How to choose the right shower drain

• Pick the drain style that matches your slope and tile plan
  
  Linear drains commonly allow a single plane slope, which can simplify layout and work well with larger tile. Point drains typically rely on a four way pitch that often pairs naturally with mosaics.
  
• Match the drain to your waterproofing method
  
  Bonded waterproofing systems often pair with bonding flange style drains, while traditional liner builds typically use clamping ring style drains. Always confirm compatibility before you commit to a system.
  
• Confirm rough in and fitment before ordering
  
  Verify outlet size, placement, drain location, and what your pan or tray expects. This is where wrong parts happen most.
  
• Choose the look and the cleanability you want
  
  Grate style and finish change the visual impact, and access for cleaning matters long after the install is done.
