This ADA-compliant 36x36 linear drain shower pan template features a 30-inch linear drain channel positioned along the back wall, designed specifically for accessible barrier-free shower installations. The single-piece construction eliminates seams across the shower floor surface, creating a continuous smooth plane that facilitates wheelchair access and mobility assistance. The linear drain configuration allows curbless entry from the front while maintaining proper slope toward the back wall drain location. Engineered for professional CNC stone fabrication, this template accommodates standard 36-inch square accessible shower bases with 30-inch linear drain assemblies mounted along the rear wall. The integrated slope geometry ensures water flows from front, sides, and center toward the linear drain channel, typically maintaining code-compliant pitch for ADA installations. The single-piece design simplifies installation compared to multi-piece alternatives while providing the seamless surface required for accessible shower environments.
Installation Overview
ADA-compliant installations require careful attention to slope requirements and threshold details to ensure proper accessibility. The template creates slope from the front edge and both sides toward the 30-inch linear drain channel along the back wall. Install over waterproof membrane systems designed for curbless shower applications, ensuring proper perimeter waterproofing where the shower pan meets surrounding floor surfaces. The single-piece construction eliminates grout joints across the floor surface, simplifying waterproofing and maintenance. Set using polymer-modified thin-set mortar, verifying proper slope using straightedges or laser levels. The linear drain channel must be precisely positioned and secured before setting the stone pan. Seal the perimeter joint between stone and linear drain assembly with appropriate sealants compatible with both stone and drain materials.
CNC Cutting Notes
This single-piece design requires careful material selection to ensure slab size accommodates the full 36x36 dimensions without seams. Program your CNC to cut the integrated multi-directional slope geometry that pitches toward the linear drain channel along the back edge. The template includes a routed channel or opening for the 30-inch linear drain assembly - verify exact drain dimensions before cutting as linear drain models vary between manufacturers. Cut with finished face up to ensure crisp edges along the perimeter and drain channel. Use appropriate diamond tooling for your stone type, with particular attention to the linear drain channel geometry which may require specialized bits for depth and width accuracy. The slope geometry is more complex than center drain designs, requiring careful toolpath programming to achieve proper pitch from multiple directions toward the linear drain location.
Material Compatibility
This template works well with granite, marble, quartzite, and engineered quartz in 2cm or 3cm thicknesses. For ADA applications, consider slip-resistance properties of the stone finish - honed or textured finishes typically provide better traction than polished surfaces in wet conditions. The single-piece construction is particularly suitable for book-matched materials where seam-free presentation showcases premium stone aesthetics. Darker materials can help define the linear drain channel visually, while lighter stones create bright, spa-like accessible shower environments. Ensure adequate sealing for porous materials, and consider anti-slip treatments for polished stones used in accessible applications where safety is paramount.
