Shower Layouts — Corner / Knee Wall
Corner 90° Door & Panel — Knee Wall / Tub Deck
A frameless 90° corner shower designed for knee wall or tub deck installations. Custom glass fabrication allows for single, double, or triple notches to fit around built-in benches or shower seats while maintaining a clean frameless appearance.
A modern 90° corner frameless shower design built for installations with a knee wall or tub deck. The hinged glass door mounts to the wall while the fixed panel provides stability and splash protection, creating a clean and open shower layout.
This configuration can also be fabricated with custom glass notches to accommodate built-in benches or shower seats. Depending on the layout, the glass may include single, double, or triple notches to properly fit around the bench while maintaining the frameless design and structural alignment.
Each enclosure is custom measured and fabricated to match the exact dimensions of the shower opening and bench configuration.
System Features
-
Knee Wall or Tub Deck
Fixed panel anchors to a tile knee wall or directly to a tub deck rather than relying on a curb run.
-
Custom Bench Notches
Single, double, or triple notches cut and polished in-shop to wrap built-in benches, seats, and shelf reveals.
-
Wall-Mount Hinged Door
Door mounts to the adjacent wall stud or properly-blocked tile; the corner panel provides splash protection.
-
3/8" Tempered Glass
Standard frameless thickness. Notch cutouts performed before tempering for full edge integrity.
-
Field-Measured Fit
Every enclosure is template-measured on site so the notch geometry lands exactly on the bench or seat.
-
Hardware Finishes
Brushed nickel, polished chrome, matte black, brushed brass — matched to your fixtures.
