I have a 1200 x 760 'Iflo' ( City Plumbing) stone resin shower tray and bought the optional leg kit, mainly just to suss out how these legs work. I initially planned to fit the tray onto a waterproof ply base supported on a timber frame, because it seemed to be a better, stronger solution. However, because space is tight, being able to gently lower this heavy tray onto a cement mix is not going to be easy.
The metal threaded legs are 'designed' to go with my chosen shower tray (even though they look very similar to ones on ebay for 1/4 the price.) They simply screw into threaded plastic holes built into the tray, but it weighs 42kg and the legs are similar to those that support a bath. It's going onto a wooden floor, so I'd probably put reinforcing planks onto the floor where the legs are, to spread the weight.
These legs cost £50 so it's not a cost saving issue, a wooden frame would be cheaper, but it's the apparent ( alledged?) ease of install that interests me.
Assuming I go with the riser leg option, what is stopping the tray shift laterally for whatever reason? There is provision to screw the feet to the floor, but i would only be ablle to reach the front ones, therefore only 3 out of 8 legs would be fixed to the floor. Only a mouse with a small scredriver would be abe to reach the other legs once the tray is in place.
