The Uni-Green Arch Double Shelf Niche combines a unique aesthetic with high-performance build quality. It is made from non-recycled ABS with a 4mm wall thickness, offering a sturdy frame that resists deformation from wall pressure after the tile is set. The double-shelf design is a practical way to maximize vertical storage in bathrooms with standard 4-inch deep walls, providing separate areas for different family members' products.
The arched top is more than just a decorative feature; it helps distribute vertical loads more evenly across the unit. The surface of the plastic is chemically etched to enhance the bond strength with the mortar used for tiling. Because it is a single-piece injection mold, it provides a reliable moisture barrier without the seams that can lead to leaks in custom-built tiled boxes.
Consider these practical tips for installation:
- The arched design requires more precise tile cutting, so it is helpful to plan for approximately 15% extra tile waste.
- Lightly sanding the flange can help ensure the best possible adhesion for large-format glass tiles.
- Ensuring your wall framing accounts for the 16-inch width will make the installation process smoother.
If you prefer a simpler square design that is easier to tile, the Uni-Green Dual Niche Set offers similar storage capacity. You can find many different shapes and sizes by exploring our built-in shower niche organizers collection.
