Shower Curb in Plan View

[MollyNDG]

Hi all,

 

I use a pony wall to create a shower curb (with a wall cap) and glass shower wall above. Is there any way to prevent a shower door placed in this glass wall from overriding the visible lower wall in plan view? I also like fixed glass slab doors to place frameless glass mounting hardware, which also interrupt the plan view. I have been dealing with this by putting a polyline where the curb is in plan view, but I'm not a fan of polyline fixes. SHOWER CURB.plan

 

Any tips are greatly appreciated!

Use a custom sill profile

Show the bottom wall - raise the door up to keep your curb - use a custom sill

I did some playing with custom sills, I am able to get the 3D to look accurate if the glass wall is set centered on lower wall, but the plan view shows the sill larger than the curb (and I'm not sure how that is derived). I am struggling to get it to look accurate in 3D for a glass wall set to the outer side of the curb (which is what I need), and I am coming across the same plan view issue.

It does work decently well to lift the door off the curb, but I don't love that you can see the glass of the wall between the door and the curb (very picky, I know). I will likely continue with this method, but hope there's a better solution that can tick all of my boxes.
