Solid Plastic Shower Stall Configurations

What shower dividers are most commonly used?

The most common are solid plastic shower stall configurations.  Solid plastic offers a number of advantages over other types of materials.  It does not require painting or repainting because its color is contiguous throughout its substance.  It is noncorrosive, and it will last for years in a wet environment.  It is 100% water resistant, just like stainless steel, so it resists microbial buildup.  Bradmar™ is easy to clean with a variety of agents provided one does not use abrasive pads that could scratch the plastic.  It comes in a variety of colors too, which make it an excellent choice for any traditional or contemporary interior design.

We are placing a couple of showers in our warehouse.  Which would be the best type?

We recommend a solid plastic shower stall configuration for several reasons.  One of these is color preservation.  There may be airborne agents in your warehouse that could damage paint over time.  Bradmar™ plastic is colored prior to molding and does not have paint that could peel off.  Also, the plastic is one contiguous piece which makes it more durable in harsh atmospheric conditions.  Plastic is tougher than most people think, so it will last for years even in the heaviest of traffic.  Plastic is also the easiest and most cost effective to repair if it is damaged.  Its contiguous coloration, hard surface, and ease of repair also make it the most vandal resistant choice for a shower divider.

Can you design a solid plastic shower stall configuration specific to my needs?

Yes.  We do this often because we sell not only shower dividers, but all other restroom fixtures and Division 10 restroom accessories.  As many of our clients opt to build showers into their restrooms, they often face design challenges associated with installing partitions for both shower and toilet stalls.  In order to help them make the most of their existing space, we will determine the best locations and mounts for shower stalls that share the same floor plan with toilet stalls.

Which shower partition is more durable: ceiling hung, floor mounted or floor to ceiling?

We have found that the most rugged configuration floor mounted, overhead braced.  In some environments this might not be possible, however, due to structural limitations on the facility.  This is why it helps to work with the professionals at XPB Locker Supply.  In the event that you encounter a challenging situation in your next renovation or new construction, we will be happy to help you develop a workaround.
