The Signature Indoor Series
What Is a Tile Insert Shower Grate?
A tile insert shower grate hides the drain by letting you set matching floor tile directly into the cover, so the grate disappears into the floor instead of showing a metal grid. Made from 1.2mm marine-grade 316 stainless steel — corrosion-resistant and rated for heavy-duty loads.
Shop Tile Insert GratesWhat Is a Wedge Wire Shower Grate?
Wedge wire shower grates use a series of triangular stainless steel bars for an industrial-chic, architectural look that suits both modern and commercial spaces. Manufactured to your exact length, outlet position, and outlet size, backed by a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.
Shop Wedge WireWhat Is a Heel Guard Shower Grate?
Heel guard grates use a narrower slot opening designed to stop heels and small objects slipping through, making them a practical choice for busy bathrooms, commercial fit-outs, and wheelchair-accessible showers. Available in the same 316 stainless steel and custom lengths as our wedge wire range.

Are DrainTEK grates wheelchair and heel safe?
Yes — indoor grates are designed and certified for wheelchair access and heel safety.
