Shower Curbs and Ramps for Accessible Wet Areas
Compare shower curbs and ramps for defining wet areas, managing transitions, and supporting accessible shower entry designs.

Shower curbs and ramps shape the transition between the bathroom floor and the waterproof shower area. The right choice depends on accessibility goals, floor elevations, drainage, tile layout, and the complete waterproofing strategy.
Shower curbs
A curb creates a raised boundary that helps define the wet area and coordinate door or screen installation. It should be stable, tile-ready, and fully connected to the shower pan and wall waterproofing.
Shower ramps
A ramp can support a smoother transition into the shower where a lower-threshold or accessible design is required. Dimensions and slope should be coordinated with the surrounding floor, shower pan, drain, and applicable project requirements.
Important installation details
- Seal all corners, seams, and penetrations
- Coordinate finished tile thickness
- Plan door, screen, and drain positions
- Verify substrate support and transition heights
