Lauxes Grates NeXT Generation NXT14 Linear Drain Kit is an anodised aluminium drainage system engineered to maintain watertight integrity in high-moisture residential and commercial environments.
This 14mm low-profile solution features integrated anti-tracking technology specifically designed to prevent sub-tile water migration and capillary tracking, which often leads to membrane failure and structural rot in wet zones.
The system offers significant workflow efficiency for the waterproofing contractor through its customizable outlet positioning, allowing the waste to be placed anywhere along the tray to align with existing plumbing. Its construction provides permanent resistance to oxidation and salt-air degradation, backed by a lifetime rustproof warranty and a 25-year UV-stable finish for coastal or poolside applications.
For a flush-floor finish, ensure the recess is at least 14mm deep and deburr all edges after onsite cutting to maintain a secure grate seating and prevent safety hazards.
Can the NXT14 be used outdoors?
Yes. The anodised aluminium is UV stable and rustproof, so it suits balconies, alfresco areas, and pool surrounds.
How do I clean the grate?
Roll the grate out for access, then clean the channel with a soft brush and hose.
Can I cut it to length onsite?
Yes. Cut with a drop saw or hacksaw, then deburr the edges.
Will it rust or fade near the coast?
No. It carries a lifetime rustproof warranty and a 25-year UV warranty against salt air and sun.
How deep does the recess need to be?
At least 14 mm to seat the 14 mm profile.
- Concrete: Set the tray into a recessed wet area bed with fall to the drain.
- Tile: Bed the tray so the grate finishes flush with the tile.
- Waterproofing membranes: Suits bonded systems; integrate to the membrane maker's specification.
- Outdoors: Install to falls in patios and pool surrounds.
