Rapid Recess is a full system designed to solve the issue of creating a curbless shower when the existing space has designs for a curbed entry. Oftentimes, clients request curbless well after the subfloor is in place, leaving contractors scratching their heads as to how to satisfy the homeowner. With a simple bracket system from Rapid Recess, tile contractors can create a curbless shower on any remodel or new construction without compromising the integrity of the subfloor. It is as simple as expose, attach, recess, and finish, a four-step process tried and true from Rapid Recess. 

Rapid Recess Systems & Solutions

The Rapid Recess Plywood Subfloor Lowering Kit is engineered to create the necessary depth for a properly sloped shower pan. This ensures adequate drainage while maintaining a curbless entry. The Rapid Recess system is incredibly well planned and perfect for every jobsite as it does not interfere with any plumbing or obstacles between the joist. Installing from above, access is never an issue, once again, making Rapid Recess a suitable solution to creating a curbless shower on any jobsite.

• Requires no framing ledger boards or cross-bracing needed
• Gains in floor height within the lowered area are 11/16″ inch
• Different kits are available for point or linear drains and shower pans
