Shop complete shower kits from DreamLine, Swan Veritek, RBX, and other leading brands — bundled packages that include the door, wall panels, base, or drain in one purchase.
Base and backwall kits include the shower floor and wall panels but let you choose your own door separately. Door and base kits pair a matched sliding, bypass, or frameless door with the base. Alcove shower kits (like Swan Veritek's 6-piece and 3-piece sets) bundle walls, base, and sometimes a built-in seat for standard three-wall installations. Barrier-free kits have a low or flush threshold for step-free entry.
Common footprints run 32" to 36" square or 30"x60"–36"x60" rectangular, with center or left/right drain placement. Buying a kit typically costs less than sourcing the door, walls, and base separately, and guarantees the pieces fit together.
Before you buy: installation-readiness checklist
Review these points with your installer before ordering your selected shower kit.
Framing and substrate: Confirm the required stud spacing, blocking, wall backing, and base support. Plan any substrate repairs or preparation specified for the selected model.
Square, level, and plumb: Have your installer check that the opening is square, the supporting floor is level, and walls are plumb within the manufacturer's tolerances. Resolve discrepancies before installation.
Drain location and relocation: Compare the kit's drain-center measurements and left, right, or center orientation with your existing plumbing. If they differ, have a qualified plumber verify relocation feasibility, access, and cost before ordering.
Existing wall suitability: Check whether the selected wall system requires direct-to-stud installation or an approved finished substrate. Do not assume it can be installed over existing tile or drywall; have damaged or damp materials assessed.
Required measurements: Record opening width at the top, middle, and bottom; depth on both sides; available height; drain-center offsets; and door swing or entry clearance. Match rough-opening and finished dimensions to the model's drawings, allowing for wall-finish thickness and delivery access.
Installer verification: Ask your installer to verify the exact model, base, wall and door compatibility, plumbing connections, required preparation, and any additional installation materials before purchase.
Follow the selected kit's manufacturer instructions: This checklist is a planning aid, not an installation manual. Use the current instructions and technical drawings for your exact model for dimensions, tolerances, approved substrates, waterproofing, adhesives, fasteners, and installation sequence.
