Bathrooms requiring flexible left or right side shower entry
Spaces with slight wall irregularities needing adjustable installation profiles
Modernizing standard 44 to 48-inch shower or tub openings
Anyone desiring integrated towel bars and easy-to-clean glass
Model Size: Designed to fit openings measuring 44 to 48 inches wide by 76 inches high.
Bypass Configuration: Double sliding glass panels provide convenient entry from either the left or right side.
Glass Thickness: Built with high-quality 5/16-inch (8 mm) thick certified clear tempered glass for safety and durability.
Protective Coating: DreamLine exclusive ClearMax water and stain resistant glass coating offers superior protection from spots and simplifies cleaning.
Integrated Handles: Dual towel bars function as both convenient drying rails and sturdy operating handles on each panel.
Adjustable Profiles: Aluminum 3-inch wall profiles accommodate up to 1/4 inch for out-of-plumb or uneven walls.
Custom Trim: Top and bottom guiderails can be trimmed up to 4 inches to achieve a precise width adjustment during installation.
Maintaining clear glass in a high-moisture shower environment can often feel like a constant chore. The ClearMax coating functions much like a high-performance wax on an automobile, smoothing out microscopic pores on the surface of the 5/16-inch tempered glass. When water hits the treated panel, it beads up and rolls off rapidly, carrying away soap residue and mineral droplets before they can dry and leave stubborn spots. This advanced protective layer helps preserve the pristine look of your brushed nickel sliding door over years of daily use without requiring harsh chemical cleaners.
Installation Guide
Measure your finished shower opening carefully to verify it falls within the 44 to 48-inch width range before cutting any metal components.
Trim the top and bottom guiderails evenly if width adjustments are necessary for your specific alcove dimensions.
Utilize the adjustable aluminum wall profiles to plumb the side tracks if your bathroom walls have slight unevenness.
Hang the sliding glass panels onto the smooth rollers and secure the SafeClose bumper guides within the wall profiles for safe operation.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing: Spray down the glass panels with clean warm water after every shower to wash away residual soap.
Squeegee Use: Wipe down the clear glass surface with a squeegee to prevent water spots and mineral buildup.
Mild Cleaner: Clean the brushed nickel hardware and glass using a soft cloth with mild soap and warm water.
Avoid Abrasives: Never use scouring pads, steel wool, or harsh chemical solvents that could scratch the glass or damage the metal finish.
Coating Care: Protect the ClearMax treatment by avoiding abrasive cleaners and silicone-based sprays.
