Kit Size Guide

Bathtubs vary in size, so we offer two different sizes of conversion kits to accommodate nearly all standard bathtubs. Follow this guide to make sure you order the right size kit for your tub.

There are two measurements you should make on the area of your tub where the kit will be installed:

Width: Width at the widest point of your bathtub’s wall within the area of the kit.

Height: Height of the bathtub wall where the kit will be placed. The kit should not extend below the curve inside of your tub.



All kits are 20” in length. 

Also choose from a left-swing or right-swing door on tub door kits. You will want the door to swing toward the drain, so choose the appropriate kit for your bathtub. Left-swing means the hinges are on the left. Right-swing means the hinges are on the right. Remember that the door is on the inside of the tub, not the outside of the kit.
