60 x 32 Inch Shower Pans
Part of our Showers guides.
60x32 is the classic tub-to-shower conversion size: it drops into the same 60-inch alcove a standard bathtub used. VEVOR's three drain positions are priced differently, from $339.90 (left) to $390.90 (right) when we checked.
Who this size fits
32 inches deep feels similar to standing in a tub, so it suits most adults but can feel snug for broad shoulders.
Picking the drain side
Face the shower opening. Drain on your left = left-drain pan. Moving a drain in a concrete slab means cutting concrete, so match the pan to your existing drain whenever possible.
What comes with VEVOR pans
- Acrylic shell with PVC reinforcement
- Slip-resistant textured floor
- Drain kit with cover (check pipe diameter)
- Single threshold for three-wall alcoves
Install notes
Most acrylic pans should be set in a bed of mortar or as the manual specifies so the floor doesn't flex. Full steps: how to install a shower pan.
Is your alcove really 60 inches?
Standard tub alcoves are framed around 60 inches, but tile, backer board and out-of-square walls change the real measurement. Measure at the floor where the pan will sit. Pans typically need the stud-to-stud dimension; check the install guide for how the tiling flange fits.
Tub-to-shower conversion steps
- Remove the tub and the bottom rows of wall tile or surround.
- Check and adjust the drain position to match the pan.
- Move the valve up if needed (tub valves sit lower than shower valves).
- Set the pan, then install new walls down onto the flange.
- Add a glass door or curtain.
Adding a seat or grab bars
A 32-inch-deep shower has room for a folding seat or a small corner bench. Add blocking in the walls for grab bars while they're open.
Drain price differences
Prices we saw ranged from $339.90 (left drain) to $390.90 (right drain). If your drain is centered and you're able to choose, the center version sits between them.
Frequently asked questions
Will a 60x32 pan fit my tub alcove?
Measure the alcove wall-to-wall and front-to-back at the floor. Alcoves are rarely perfectly square, so allow for the flange.
Do I need a curb kit too?
No, acrylic pans have a built-in threshold; curb kits are for tiled floors.
Is 60x32 the same as a standard bathtub?
It matches the typical 60-inch alcove, which is why it's popular for conversions.
Which drain position is most common?
Tub drains are usually at one end, so left or right drain pans often match after conversion.
Do I need a curb kit?
No, the pan has a built-in threshold.
Can I tile walls onto the pan?
Yes, backer board and tile go down over the pan's flange.
