Wheelchair accessible showers give you the freedom to bathe safely and with dignity, without stepping over a tub wall. Ella’s barrier-free shower kits combine a low-threshold, anti-slip base with durable wall panels, so a wheelchair or shower chair can roll straight in. Whether you need an independent roll-in shower or a setup designed for a caregiver to assist, our ADA-style kits are made to fit real bathrooms and real routines.Below you will find our two customizable kits for wheelchair users, where you choose each component. Not sure which one fits your space? Use our Shower Builder to design your own, or explore our roll-in shower bases if you only need the base.
Choose your base, walls, seat, grab bars and accessories to assemble a shower kit for independent, barrier-free bathing.
Pick the components that give a wheelchair user and a caregiver the space and support they need, from curtains to grab bars.
What to Look for in a Wheelchair Accessible Shower
A good accessible shower is more than a bigger opening. These are the features that make a roll-in shower safe and easy to use every day:
- Low or zero threshold so wheels glide in without a lip.
- Anti-slip surface to reduce falls on a wet floor.
- Generous turning space for a wheelchair or shower chair.
- Grab bars and a handheld showerhead within easy reach.
- Room for a caregiver to assist without getting soaked.
Ella’s barrier-free showers are built around these needs, and every kit is designed with ADA accessibility in mind.

02
What size does a roll-in shower need?
Most wheelchair users need at least 60″ x 30″, and 60″ x 36″ gives more room to maneuver and for a caregiver.
