Installation:

• We’re gonna show you how to install a waterproof shower niche in 20 minutes or less (before tiling) using the Dük Liner wall niches:

Step 1: Choose the ideal placement of the shower niche. If you choose an outside wall, take into careful consideration the climate in which you live. If you install a shower niche on an outside wall, you won’t have much space for insulation. No one likes a cold shower.
Step 2: Determine the size and shape of your desired shower niche. A Yellow Dük Liner is perfectly square (14″ x 14″). The Blue Dük Liner offers more height or width depending on how you lay out the shower niche (14′ x 24′). The Red Dük Liner is perfect option for a shave step (14′ x 6′), or the Green Dük Liner has an arched top (14′ x 14″).
Step 3: The niche needs to be placed between two wall studs. (A) Add horizontal nailing blocks, then (B) nail the Dük Liner to the studs on it’s pre-marked spots (see first image below, left).

• Step 4: Install mortar board and use a bead of silicone along the edge where the board meets the Dük Liner.

Step 5: Get ready to tile! Use a generous amount of adhesive on the back wall to allow for shrinkage during the drying process. Any form of adhesive can be used.
Wait! Did we mention waterproofing? Forget about liquid waterproofing membranes and the like, the Dük Liner shower niche is WATERPROOF. That’s right, 100% guaranteed leak-proof. The Dük Liner is made of injected molded ABS plastic. You can skip waterproofing a shower niche altogether.
