Ebbe Subfloor Recess Kit E116 for Curbless Shower Installations

The Ebbe E116 Subfloor Recess Kit provides a simple and cost-effective solution for lowering a subfloor between joists to create a barrier-free shower entry. Designed for curbless shower installations, the system allows contractors and DIY installers to recess the shower floor without modifying structural joists or installing complicated floor-lowering systems.

In Stock - Ships Same Day

The E116 kit is especially useful when constructing accessible showers, aging-in-place bathrooms, and modern curbless shower designs. The bracket system installs quickly and works exceptionally well with traditional framing as well as engineered I-joist floor systems.

Kit Includes:

  • 15 Joist Brackets
  • 6 Wall Brackets
  • 75 Wood Screws
  • 36 Joist Hanger Nails

Not Included:

  • 2x4 Lumber
  • Subfloor Material
  • Construction Adhesive

Features & Benefits

  • Creates recessed floors for curbless shower installations
  • Covers up to 24 square feet of recessed floor area
  • Fast installation with minimal framing modifications
  • Avoids joist penetrations and web stiffeners
  • Excellent solution for engineered I-joist systems
  • Wall brackets can be adapted for joist applications
  • Economical alternative to complex floor-lowering systems
  • Suitable for residential and commercial projects

Designed for I-Joist Construction

The Ebbe Subfloor Recess Kit works particularly well with engineered I-joists because the brackets mount directly to the top flange of the joist. This design helps simplify installation while maintaining structural integrity.

Installation Guidelines

  • Remove the existing subfloor as needed to expose joists and wall framing.
  • Install joist and wall brackets with a maximum spacing of 36 inches on center.
  • Use structural grade #2 or better Douglas Fir, Larch, or Pine for support framing.
  • Create the recessed 2x4 framework and install into the bracket system.
  • Secure the new subfloor using adhesive and screws.
  • Use subfloor adhesive at hanger seats for maximum performance.

Load Requirements

Bracket spacing of up to 36 inches on center is designed to achieve L/360 deflection with a live load of 40 PSF and a dead load of 20 PSF when installed according to manufacturer recommendations.

Ideal Applications

  • Curbless showers
  • Barrier-free shower installations
  • Accessible bathrooms
  • Universal design projects
  • Aging-in-place renovations
  • Residential and commercial shower construction
