Easy Steps to Install Glass Shower Enclosure

Whereas each shower type is unique and different in terms of accessibility and functionality, the set up is more or less similar. If you are willing to do it alone, the manufacturer will guide you with a detailed step-by-step installation manual and if you wish to delegate the task to professionals, you can be rest assured of zero mistakes.

• Prior to installing a glass frame, you should take correct measurements of the shower zone and measure the curb edges properly as it’s the basis of the foundation layout.

• While taking measurements, it’s important to get a correct estimate of the height, width, angles and alignments and install the base track for glass doors.

• Next, you need to drill holes for rail fasteners, hinges and handles.

• Once you are done drilling holes, place the silicone caulk on the specific line marked for the shower zone and installs the base track on it. This is extremely essential to prevent leakage.

• The next thing is to set the side tracks using screws and attach them properly. It’s better to use silicon caulk on the back of tracks to make it resistant to water.

• Once you are done placing rails and glass panels in place, you may proceed to install the top rail. Finish the joining by fixing vertical rails with fasteners and screws.

• The last and final step is to fit the shower door. However, before proceeding with the door fitting, you must ensure the concerned wall is vertical in order to prevent gaps between door and walls.
