900 x 760mm offset quadrant shower trays give compact bathrooms a little more width than a small quadrant tray while keeping the projection slim. The 900mm width improves comfort across the enclosure, and the 760mm length helps the shower sit neatly in tighter en-suites, cloakrooms and narrow corners. The curved front makes movement around nearby basins or toilets easier than with a square-edged tray. This size is well suited to shoppers upgrading a compact corner shower without losing too much floor space.
TAILS’ COMPACT FOOTPRINT CHECK
Use extra length without excessive projection
900 x 760mm offset quadrant shower trays provide a longer 900mm side while restricting the return to 760mm, helping a corner shower fit around tighter circulation routes. The curved frontage removes the projecting outer corner of a rectangle, while still offering more length than many equal-sided compact trays.
Is a 900 x 760mm Offset Quadrant Shower Tray Right for Your Corner?
Check wall lengths, curved frontage and enclosure alignment carefully
Your corner has unequal wall lengths
The 900mm edge can use the longer wall while the 760mm side limits how far the tray enters the room. This proportion suits compact bathrooms where an equal-sided base would not use the available corner as efficiently.
The curved edge protects circulation
Removing the square outer corner can create a smoother route past the shower beside a toilet, basin or doorway. The benefit is most noticeable where people pass close to the enclosure and every centimetre of floor clearance matters.
You can select matching glass
Purchasing the tray with a confirmed compatible enclosure helps match the 900mm and 760mm edges, front curve and orientation. Offset quadrant products with identical nominal dimensions may still use different radii or frame positions.
You need greater internal depth
A tray with a deeper return may provide more comfortable shoulder and elbow room. The 760mm side keeps projection compact, so compare the usable standing area rather than assuming the longer 900mm edge alone creates a spacious interior.
Your layout needs opposite orientation
A handed or reversible alternative is required when the longer edge, waste position or curved section must face the other way. Check the manufacturer’s plan view because rotating a genuinely handed tray may place its geometry incorrectly.
A rectangular corner is usable
A rectangular tray may provide more internal floor area where the room can comfortably accommodate a square outer corner. The offset quadrant shape deliberately sacrifices that corner to improve movement around the enclosure in tighter layouts.
900 x 760mm Offset Quadrant Shower Tray FAQs
Orientation, enclosure curves and drainage placement explained
-
Which wall takes the 900mm side?
The longer edge should follow the wall shown on the manufacturer’s plan-view drawing for the selected orientation. Do not determine this from a product photograph alone, because images may be reversed or show the opposite-handed version.
-
Why can two matching sizes use different enclosures?
The front curve, corner radius and tray-edge profile can differ even when both products are labelled 900 x 760mm. The enclosure must follow the exact curved perimeter, so compatibility should be confirmed rather than inferred from size alone.
-
Does waste position affect the tray orientation?
Yes. The outlet location can determine whether the drainage route clears joists, pipework and enclosure supports once the tray is positioned. Check the waste centre on the technical drawing before deciding which orientation works best in the room.
DESIGNER’S NOTE
Place the 900mm edge along the clearer wall and leave visual breathing space around the curved 760mm return so the compact footprint feels purposeful.
