At 10:52 you mention (again) that the sliding door track was screwed into the plastic shower threshold...that is risky since water is likely to get in there over time. IF you do drill it in place, please add a blob of clear mildew resistant silicone into the hole you just drilled and under the track to (hopefully) prevent water going into the hole over time - do all this before screwing it in place. Other glass door manufacturers and installers advise to use double sided tape to fasten that sliding door track (guide) in place, then silicone around it.

Monica, please work on a shower stall that can be enclosed to provide a “steam-like” experience without an actual steam unit. I have concerns about dealing with builder grade shower walls. How do you deal with the steam if only part of the wall is tiled? How does one deal with the ceiling light above the shower stall? What kind of steam escape can be installed when all the shower doors don’t reach the ceiling? What kind of fan must be installed to deal with so much steam once the shower door is opened? So glad you can work magic to a builder grade bathroom. Love your work!!! 👍😉💕🤩

I bought a shower door kit from Lowes that is almost the same. It's very heavy--ours is in Chrome finish. It's beautiful, but it leaks on the front edge corner. I think my contractor installed the front edging wrong after watching this video.

We are planning exactly what you did here Inc,using maiming it taller. What did you do about the gap from the top of the shower line where the tile starts to the top of the vertical bar? It’s at least an inch. The door looks great but I’m concerned about that gap and water coming out both sides above where the shower liner ends.

To install a bypass double door on those plastic showers kits with bathtub is it the same steps as far as drilling on the side for the rails? If I knock on the side of my shower walls it feels hollow inside. How would I install the side rails here, do I get longer screws?

@abdulagungwijaya6807 5 жыл бұрын

Do we need to put a water seal on the bottom glass ? I mean, it would not attach that perfect, because the door is not settle, i mean we can open and close it.. so it would not seal that perfect.. can we replace with any plat and attach it on the bottom side glass ?

What about that space by the fixed door where the frame is taller than the fiberglass shower? It’s okay to leave that open? I ask because I’m installing a shower door and I have space on each side where the frame is taller than the fiberglass
