Just wondering what height everyone has their shower niches and how deep they are.
Our builder has just put ours in but they seem high to me and not very deep.
Thanks

Thanks Re: Height and depth of shower niches 4Jan 31, 2012 11:56 am Hi gogo, Ours too will be 1200mm from the floor level. Our ensuite niche will run the entire length of our shower (approx. 1400mm) and is 300mm high and 75mm deep. The kids bathroom are the same measurements except shower length is only 900mm. My brother in law has a single box about 300mm by 300mm and wishes everyday that he had gone the complete length of the shower as once you put shampoo and conditioner in there is not much room for anything else. Em Re: Height and depth of shower niches 5Jan 31, 2012 12:04 pm Hi Gogo, Ours was a little restricted because of the framing and required bracing so was the maximum size we could fit. Ended up as 1300mm from the floor (couldn't go any lower but I think it looks fine), 600mm long and 350mm high. Re: Height and depth of shower niches 6Jan 31, 2012 12:08 pm Mine will be similar to rocketship's only 300mmHx600mmLx75D, need to check from floor height. Height and depth of shower niches 7Jan 31, 2012 1:32 pm We only had one done in the main ensuite. It is around 1200mm off the floor, 300mm high, 100mm deep and runs around 1800mm in length from memory. Pretty sure our shower is around 2000-2500 in length and the niche is pretty much the length of it bar a tile width on each end. Some things are worth waiting for. Re: Height and depth of shower niches 8Jan 31, 2012 1:46 pm We cant do our niche the length of the shower as it the wall that will have the shower rail on it,, so it has to be between the two showers head/rails which still gives us about 900, but then again my shower is 4m long Rocketship I think we will be like you and restricted in width due to the frame, I will definitely see if I can change the height to 1200mm though as that seems to be the consensus. Thanks The distance between my DEBs varies from 4.1m at the narrowest to 8.1m at the widest. 5 27331 I'll look into different shower heads and ask the plumber about some engineering and see what he says. Thanks 2 9569 Hi, only for walking. It is a narrow 1.5m paved area next to house. 2 5440 |
