Description
The Mecca "Handle Up" shower mixer in Gun Metal is the definitive choice for those seeking a bold, architectural statement with a sophisticated urban edge. By positioning the handle above the circular backplate, this mixer offers a unique vertical orientation that separates your bathroom from standard layouts. The deep metallic finish provides a rich, textural depth that reflects light beautifully, creating a stunning focal point on your shower or bath wall.
Why choose this product?
This mixer is a true architectural statement piece. Its unique vertical layout is perfect for creating a high-end look in narrow wall zones, combining the incredible durability of a PVD Gun Metal finish with the long-term flexibility of Nero's universal body system.
Key Features
- Unique "Handle Up" Orientation: Features a specialised vertical design that positions the handle above the plate, providing a distinct architectural look and solving clearance issues in narrow spaces.
- Replaceable Trim Kits: Built on the Nero universal body system, this mixer allows you to swap the external Gun Metal trim for a different finish in the future without calling a tiler or breaking into your walls.
- Precise Ceramic Control: Equipped with a high-quality 35mm ceramic disc cartridge for smooth, effortless adjustment of water flow and temperature.
- Lead-Free Brass Construction: Forged from premium lead-free brass to ensure long-term durability and the highest standards of water safety for your family.
User Guide: Style & Planning
- Best applications: A standout choice for master ensuites or feature bathrooms. It is particularly effective in narrow walk-in showers where you want to maximise visual space.
- Colour Matching: Gun Metal is a specialty finish that is notoriously difficult to match between manufacturers. To avoid a visible clash of tones, we strongly advise sticking with the Nero Mecca or Bianca ranges for all your tapware and accessories.
- Installation: This is a "Handle Up" specific model. Ensure your plumber has the included NRUB002P rough-in body and follows the orientation guide before the wall sheeting goes up.

Common Questions
What is the advantage of a "Handle Up" mixer?
It is primarily an aesthetic and space-saving choice. The vertical layout creates a cleaner architectural line and can help avoid clashes with other fixtures or towel rails in tight spaces.
Is Gun Metal hard to keep clean?
Actually, it's very practical. The PVD Gun Metal finish is much more forgiving than polished chrome when it comes to fingerprints and water spots. A quick wipe with a soft cloth after use is usually all it takes to keep that deep, metallic sheen looking its best.
Does it come with the valve for the wall?
Yes, the price includes the required NRUB002P in-wall rough-in body. Your plumber will need that early on to get the plumbing lines set before the walls are finished.
