Offset Quadrant Shower Trays
What is an offset quadrant shower tray?
An offset quadrant shower tray has a curved front edge and an asymmetric footprint, one side longer than the other, which gives you a more generous internal showering area than a standard quadrant tray. It’s designed to sit in a corner and pair with an offset quadrant enclosure, with size and handedness needing to match across both for the installation to work correctly.

What is the difference between a quadrant and an offset quadrant shower tray?
A standard quadrant tray has equal sides and a symmetrical curved front, which keeps the corner footprint compact, but limits how much space you have inside the shower. An offset quadrant shower tray solves that by making one side significantly longer than the other, giving you noticeably more space to move, without taking up more of the corner. For a family bathroom where comfort is as important as space efficiency, the offset design is almost always the stronger choice.

What is the difference between left-hand and right-hand offset quadrant shower trays?
Handedness refers to the position of the waste outlet when you stand facing the tray. A left-hand tray has the waste on the left, a right-hand tray has it on the right. Getting this right matters because the waste needs to align with the pipework already in your floor, so it’s worth checking where your waste pipe sits before ordering. Both configurations are available across all sizes in this range.
What sizes are available in offset quadrant shower trays?
This range covers a wide variety of sizes to suit different layouts and enclosure configurations, including popular options such as 1200x800mm, 1200x900mm, and 1000x800mm. Always confirm that the tray size matches your enclosure before ordering, as the two must match exactly to fit together.
What materials are the offset quadrant shower trays made from?
Pearlstone and stone resin are both available across this range, and the difference between them is more than just finish. Pearlstone is lighter, with a smooth, high-gloss surface that’s warm underfoot and easy to wipe clean. Stone resin is denser and heavier, with a matte slate-effect finish that feels more grounded underfoot and suits bathrooms with a natural or more contemporary look. Both come in low-profile designs, and both can be paired with an optional riser kit if your pipework requires a raised installation.
What is a riser kit, and do I need one?
A riser kit lifts the shower tray off the floor to create clearance for the waste pipe and trap beneath it. You’ll need one if the existing pipework doesn’t allow a low-profile tray to drain correctly without adjustment, which is most common when replacing an older, deeper tray or working in a bathroom where the floor has limited depth. For new builds or bathrooms where the pipework has been specifically positioned for a low-profile tray, a riser kit isn’t usually necessary.
Do offset quadrant shower trays come with a waste?
The trays in this range are supplied without a waste, giving you the flexibility to choose one that matches your other fittings. Browse our shower tray wastes to find a compatible option, and if you’re unsure which waste works with your tray, get in touch. Our team are always happy to help.
