Installing Shower Door Taller Than Shower

Wipe away any excess sealant.

Installing shower door taller than shower.

Fixed door panel shields spray from the bathroom floor but no door at the opposite end design can make a bathroom feel bigger and modern opening is often wider than conventional shower doors providing easier access for those who need it. The surround stops short of being tall enough to handle the door by 2. And unfortunately the surround also juts in 2. The installation which is essentially the same for a stall shower or tub shower is a no brainer.

I did already want to do the tub as well in the future so i just kept it and got another shower door. Position the threshold track with the high side of the track located towards the outside. Threshold up to 5 feet and halfway in between. Any wall that s more than inch out of vertical over 5 feet will need a matching filler strip so that the door can be made plumb.

The height of delta shower doors is provided on all packages and with all online listings so you can be sure you re getting the right size. Apply a bead of silicone sealant around the entire bottom edge of the threshold track. Sliding shower doors are taller than tub doors and afford walk in access without having to step over the tub apron to enter the shower. Measure the width of the shower opening in at least three places.
