Walk-In Shower - Since 2001
Walk-In Showers: Modern, Low-Maintenance & Accessible
Looking for low-threshold or fully barrier-free entry, slip-resistant pans, grout-free wall systems, and built-in seating? For over 25 years, ZINTEX walk-in showers have been engineered for accessibility without sacrificing design. Most installations finish in 1–3 days and are backed by a lifetime warranty.
A walk-in shower installation replaces an old tub or a dated, hard-to-clean shower with a low-threshold or barrier-free model, usually within the same footprint. A new shower installation from ZINTEX is professionally installed by certified crews, not a DIY kit, and most projects are finished in just 1 to 2 days with a lifetime warranty.

Walk-in Shower Benefits
Why Choose an Acrylic Walk-In Shower System
From the moment you step in to the moment you step out, every detail is engineered for accessibility, comfort, and a clean modern look that lifts the whole bathroom.
Barrier Free Entry
Low-threshold curbs or fully curbless pans eliminate the step-over that causes most bathroom falls — ADA-friendly and walker / wheelchair ready.
Custom Design
Choose grout-free, solid-surface acrylic walls in dozens of finishes — paired with your choice of shower rod, glass door, or frameless glass.
Built In Seating
Integrated benches and fold-down seats let you bathe comfortably seated — paired with ADA-compliant grab bars exactly where you need them.
Easy to Clean
Non-porous, mold-resistant walls wipe clean in minutes. No grout to scrub, no caulk to replace — just a clean shower, every day.
SHOWER BASES
Shower base sizes are broken down into 2 categories:
-
Standard Shower Base Sizes: 30-36 inches wide X 30-60 inches long
-
Oversize Shower Base Options: 37+ inches wide OR 61+ inches long will require an oversized or custom shower base
In addition to shower base sizes, there are two base threshold options:
-
Curbless Shower Entry (aka Zero-Entry): Completely flush with bathroom floor to create a barrier-free shower for maximum bathroom accessibility
-
Low-Threshold Shower Entry: Minimal 1-2 inch lip for better water containment while maintaining enhanced accessibility
SHOWER WALLS
Shower wall heights can come in the following configurations:
- Partial Heights (3/4 High Systems): Extends approximately 72" up from the shower base, covering essential splash zones while maintaining an open, airy feeling perfect for smaller bathrooms with standard ceiling heights and easy cleaning.
- Floor to Ceiling Wall Systems: Floor to Ceiling Systems deliver complete wall protection from base to ceiling, creating a fully waterproof enclosure with no exposed drywall vulnerable to moisture damage.
- Ceiling Panel Systems: Extend waterproof coverage to include an integrated ceiling panel that perfectly matches your shower walls, creating a true wet-room effect.
SHOWER ENCLOSURES
- Traditional Shower Rod: Standard rod from wall to wall to hold shower curtain
- Semi-frameless: Balance of structural framing with substantial glass exposure

Risks of Waiting
REDUCE SLIP & FALL RISK, MOLD & MOBILITY ISSUES
Bathrooms are the most common place for home injury — and the tub ledge is responsible for the majority of trips and falls. Here's what you're choosing when you put it off:
Fall Risk
Stepping over a 15"+ tub wall onto a wet floor is the leading cause of bathroom injury. A low or zero-threshold shower removes that hazard from your daily routine.
Mold & Grout Decay
Old tile grout traps moisture and grows mold. Grout-free wall systems and sealed pans eliminate the constant scrubbing — and protect indoor air quality.
Limited Independence
As your mobility needs change, you may struggle to enter and exit a traditional tub without assistance. A walk-in shower is often what keeps someone in their home, on their own terms.
