Frameless sliding door design Includes two stationary glass panels and two sliding glass panels that open to create a wide center entry point.
Clear tempered glass Built with 1/4 inch ANSI certified glass for reliable safety and a bright, open feel in the bathroom.
Low profile shower base Incorporates a 30 by 60 inch single threshold base with a left hand drain for a modern aesthetic and easy step-in access.
Coordinating backwall kit Features an attractive white tile pattern with two convenient glass corner shelves for organized storage.
Out-of-plumb adjustability Allows up to 1 inch of adjustment per side to ensure a secure fit during installation in uneven alcoves.
Mastering Out-of-Plumb Walls During Installation
Older homes often settle over time, causing wall studs to deviate slightly from a perfectly vertical plumb line. This shower door kit addresses that common challenge by incorporating sliding panel hardware and wall profiles that allow up to 1 inch of out-of-plumb adjustability per side. Think of it like an adjustable picture frame that compensates for a slightly slanted wall, allowing the metal framework and glass panels to sit square and seal correctly against the tile or backwall. This built-in flexibility ensures a watertight enclosure and a professional finished appearance, even if your bathroom walls are not perfectly straight.
Installation Guide
Verify that your alcove dimensions measure 30 by 60 inches and confirm that your plumbing layout matches the left hand drain base configuration.
Check that the surrounding walls are structurally sound and plumb, utilizing the 1 inch per side adjustability of the door frame as needed.
Secure the single threshold shower base to a leveled subfloor according to standard plumbing and manufacturer guidelines.
Install the QWALL-5 shower backwall panels and integrated glass corner shelves before mounting the sliding glass door assembly.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing Spray down the 1/4 inch clear tempered glass panels with warm water after each shower to prevent soap scum buildup.
Surface Wiping Use a squeegee or a soft microfiber cloth to dry the glass and hardware surfaces and maintain a spotless shine.
Gentle Cleansing Clean the glass and hardware finishes using a mild, non-abrasive liquid cleanser and avoid harsh scouring pads.
Backwall Maintenance Wipe down the white QWALL-5 shower backwall panels with a non-abrasive sponge and mild household cleaner.
Drain Care Keep the left hand drain clear of hair and debris to ensure proper water evacuation during daily use.
