The Shower Opening Before the Floor Finish
I used SketchUp to plan the interior and put body openings ahead of the framing, floor and wall panels.
My Interior Preparation notes included the shower drain and openings for three water tanks in that preparation sequence.
I removed cargo tie-down hardware for later framing mounts and door trim for the later insulation and paneling.

My Takeaway for the Build
The shower drain was one of the openings specifically included in my early interior plan. For the CIFOX purchase, the visible grate and removable parts are useful details to settle alongside the layout. The tile-insert alternative changes the finished appearance, while WEBANG keeps an exposed black grate with a different pattern.

6-inch square drain with grate and strainer
The CIFOX drain groups a square grate, surrounding flange and strainer. The visible grate is only part of the assembly; the connection below the shower floor also needs space. For a van shower layout, compare the drain position with the floor construction and route beneath it. Leave a workable way to lift the grate and remove collected debris.
The removable grate and strainer are service points. The finished shower layout should allow them to be lifted for cleaning.

Two Alternatives to Compare
Neodrain uses a tile-insert top that changes the finished appearance. WEBANG uses a visible black patterned grate, making the top surface and service access the main design comparison.
