I am looking for a little lip that goes along the outside of a roll in shower. I don't know what it's called. I've googled a billion things and get a lot of results but not the right thing.
On some roll in showers there is a rubbery lip type thing that can keep the water in. It's flexible, about an inch high. You can roll over it if you need to. Anyone know where I can find this? It's for someone I know having trouble with their shower letting water run into th emiddle of the bathroom floor. Nothing else we have found compares for their bathroom design. I saw it in a hotel and then somewhere else I can't remember.

Thanks!

try searching for rubber gasket for shower enclosure, rubber gasket water barrier, etc.

One of those two should work. I googled and got all kind of results with my nontechnical terms. The ones I kept getting were round or too big and got in the way.
I felt like those Bing commercials they keep showing when I was searching earlier.

The HGTV show Holmes on Homes just redid a woman's bathroom using one of those -- don't know what it was called, but it looked great. You might try the network's website.

It's called a shower dam.

to the person using the shower.
Most all shower chairs have only 5in wheels which is difficult to manage over any floor obstacles like thresholds. Far better is just to build a crest into the floor using the cement subfloor and tile thinset. This also allows for radient heating and can be waterproofed with a Laticrete product.
If you could copy & paste on this I'd show you a pict.
