Yes — custom lengths are available where a standard module does not fit the shower opening. Custom lengths are commonly specified for wall-to-wall installations and for openings that do not match common dimensions.
Why specify a custom length
- Wall-to-wall appearance — a grate that runs the full width of the shower or the full length of the wall reads as an architectural line rather than a fitting.
- Non-standard openings — bespoke bathrooms and renovation projects rarely match standard dimensions.
- Multiple drains — where a single drain is used per bay, custom lengths keep the layout consistent.
- Repeatability across rooms — for hotel projects with many identical rooms, a custom length matched exactly to the opening reduces on-site cutting.
What to provide when ordering
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Finished length | Exact dimension required, in mm |
| Tolerance | Whether the opening is exact or has allowable tolerance |
| Outlet position | End, centre, or offset along the channel |
| Outlet type | Horizontal, vertical or side |
| Grate type | Steel grate or tile-insert frame |
| Quantity | Including spares if required |
Points to plan for
- Lead time — custom lengths add production time compared with standard sizes.
- Site measurement — confirm the opening dimension after the walls are finished, not from the drawings alone.
- Waste allowance — allow for cutting and setting tolerance at the ends.
- Spares — for project orders, a small percentage of spare grates avoids delays if any are damaged on site.
