Proper wood blocking in the wall for the hinges and mechanical fasteners is one of the most important things that should go into the design.
-
Seats and Curbs - must be pitched for proper drainage. The correct shower curb pitch will result in proper drainage. Be sure to pitch the curb towards the inside of the shower enclosure. A pitch between 3/16" and 1/4" is ideal.
-
Shower soffits must plumb down precisely to lower curbs. This is necessary in order to line up glass panels.
-
Position body sprays and faucet heads towards tile walls, not towards enclosure doors.
-
Tempered glass panels cannot be made in dimensions less than 3 1/2 inches, plan accordingly when designing your enclosure.
