Seriously this is a professional video and whoever edited this video needs to be fired.

[@assholeplayingxbox8313]

Instead of being yet another online keyboard troll warrior, just say thank you

[@throbgristle]

Thankyou. A few spots could show a little more procedure. But the video with the installation guide are sufficient.

[@DeDonDadda]

Thanks for the video. I have a couple issues, 1. Cutting the the top piece with the jig saw without protecting the finish with tape you definately marred the surface as shown in the video. 2. The hardest things to do like how to hang the inside door, is not shown in the video. In fact many of the difficult tasks are either not explained or not shown. Even the outside door with the little J hooks has to be installed in a specific part on the upper track where there are cutouts. Anyone planning to do this job should know this is not one for a novice. You are best to have a second pair of hands as well as sticky gloves as the doors are very heavy.

[@darrylpacholke]

I just hung 3 at a house in 4 hours....caulked and all cleaned up... it's different when you do it everyday... these are garbage though definitely just call a glass and have them order either a serenity or a crescent series...

[@luv14lyf]

What's the cons of the Levity? I'm purchasing today but before I do, would like to know the downside. I will be installing on a kohler bellwether tub which is cast iron

[@luv14lyf]

Anyway to remove the scratches?

[@angelalvarado008]

🎉AMIGASO DEJE LE DIGO ALGO GRACIAS POR SU TIEMPO EN HACER ESTE VIDEO .... A BUEN ENTENDEDOR CON POCAS PALABRAS..

[@justaskdad]

Put blue tape over metal before cutting so it won't scratch.

[@MedicNYC]

Would much prefer you talk through the step instead of having that awful music. Other than that, thanks for the video.

[@darkrockerz]

Right

[@johntabor5111]

Yes for the love of God that music....

[@patsfan1150]

thanks for taking the time, good job

[@BigmoRivera]

Great Job 😉👍🏽

[@visaratali2126]

very good

[@TheChavez1976]

Do the glass doors slide behind the side supports for the top like a channel?

[@kidrcth]

I could almost watch the video until I realized the music never stopped.

[@DoitDoit]

you could just completely turn down the volume ‘ mute. and listen to your own music

[@assholeplayingxbox8313]

In that case, turn off the volume and play your own music. What an idiot type of comment

[@justdissin7340]

The hardest part for me was drilling holes on ceramic tile omg...it was tough but got it done

[@johntabor5111]

Hammer drill works best versus regular

[@noy-z]

You think ceramic is tough? Try drilling into porcelain! Look up Diamond bits. They definitely saved my sanity

[@yearlaw]

I think he installed the door handles on the wrong side. The interior door should be closest to the shower head so the door handle should be installed on the right side of the door.

[@assholeplayingxbox8313]

Surely looks like it but that’s how the instructions said to do it

[@raybosflorida4928]

wait!!! at 9;40,,,you took all apart & drilled holes,,,what happened?????

[@shelbyluver]

One of our two year old Kohler Levity glass doors just exploded while we were laying in bed to go to sleep. No explanation for it. Glass everywhere. Glad none of us were in it. Guess we will see what Kohler says in the morning. 😒

[@darrylpacholke]

It happens all the time with all different types of glass.... you have no idea the weird things that happen to glass

[@al8685]

A year later... what happened with Kohler?

[@rudy2ndjr]

Hello can you tell me if both doors should be holed at same length? I cant figure out why outside door hangs off bottom.

[@2013hwcamaro]

Is this an installation instruction video or a music video?

[@assholeplayingxbox8313]

if you watch the video , you can clearly see its an installation video. Now say "thank you" since they didnt have to make this video and move on

[@_Zenyatta_Mondatta]

Thanks for scratching the shit out of the header piece when you cut it, ever heard of tape?

[@tomsdreamshopworx]

Getting ready to install mine tomorrow! Thx for doing the video.

[@abi2270]

Cut the dang music and explain your steps without music. This is not a musical game.

[@moemorales4317]

nice job... .how long did it take ?you dont mine asking its cause l have to install one just like that one

[@Andrew-Comi]

I'm installing this now... just read that the tub wall needs to be 3 inches wide to install the bottom door "guide". Mine shower tub is only 2.5 inches wide. Any suggestions? Wouls these doors work with a smaller door guide? Thx

[@haydenfrench8493]

Did it work?

[@Andrew-Comi]

@haydenfrench8493 hey! I did do it with the door guide track provided.. its held up well. However, the door "track" kind overhangs the lip of the tub. It hasn't been a problem for me, but it doesn't look quite right. No one will notice other than you!

[@willis23jm1]

Am I the only one observing that these door are hang incorrectly... base on the overlap n the direction of shower would you get water from shower spray coming out from btwn?

[@juanr3231]

Looks good the installation but the tile is horrible installation 😮

[@assholeplayingxbox8313]

lol. What’s wrong with it ?

[@cruz00cl]

my doors have the coated side on the out side. Can I remove them and put correctly?

[@lexhemart]

Could do without that music and explanation would have been nice

[@Brandonbikes]

do the cleats have to go into wood stud?

[@chomalungma82]

Our contractor can't figure out how the bottom of the doors should run in the lower guide. This video doesn't show the guide clearly. Can someone post a picture of the lower center guide w/ the 2 doors in place please. Thank you

[@DoitDoit]

Fire the useles contractor and read the instructions

[@mgormaly]

What if my tub is a quarter inch off level?

[@angeluch6049]

It's a how-to video; No narration, annoying whistling throughout and FF>> over procedures. Thanks for taking the time to do this but this could have been a lot more helpful

[@bryanchey3296]

I need help, I need a step by step instructions, and the music is not helping.

[@FIXMYHOMEShawn]

Sliding door has to install inside the shower not out side

[@assholeplayingxbox8313]

I thought that too, until I saw the manual

[@mailman3916]

both my doors came off the bottom track. can anyone help me on how to get them back on? I would appreciate it. Thank you.

[@DeDonDadda]

Have the same issue after bumping into one at a friends house. You basically need to but a new centerpiece, remove the lower strip, place the inside door in the centerpiece then hang the door, fix the centerpiece in place using acrylic transparent caulk, hang outside door. Best thing is to dissemble it and follow the instructions to install the door again. There is no easy way to hang the inside door on the lower centerpiece without doing so.

[@Frateloscast]

A very sloppy tile job right there. And I just finished installing a kohler levity shower door and they are missing a lot of details for exemple: the jamb cover does not fit all way in to the tile because of the top and down bumpers. And also the boots, is rubbers flimsy thing.

[@debarlysshop1756]

What Size of bathroom??

[@macbill1]

How long did the installation take?

[@sdalin27]

Anyone installed it without the splash guard strips?

[@jeffbrent]

where is that grey tile from.... whats the name of it? thanks

[@DoitDoit]

I got it from Rona. Only place I could find it. Forgot the name/Brand . I think it was Italian though.

[@vendetta989]

Music is so bad I couldn't watch this

[@dougrhatigan1661]

Man ! these things are a pain !

[@DoitDoit]

as long as you follow the instructions - step by step- you will be fine. Videos like these should help out - get an idea of what to do

[@roseannsullivan1871]

these door are the worst, only after 3 years, the rollers refuse to work right I tried every adustment, but nothing worked

[@Audiophilifix]

Same I'm trying to adjust this crap now! SMH.

[@MrGrilleo]

Why even put this video up? Waste of 12 mins.

[@Louthemailman]

Good job with glass.. the tile work is shit...

[@ahoffarth]

Would it kill you to add a verbal narration instruction instead of the awful music?

[@DoitDoit]

than people would complain about that too. #facts

[@agm6095]

I just bought one of these doors from Lowes and instead of verbalizing your installation, you have a bunch of crappy background "noise". One thumb down.

[@frederickkearney7798]

This is one of the poorest installation instruction videos I have ever seen. The video is choppy, out of focus, and incomplete. Instead of having awful music, some explanation of the steps by the installer would have been useful. If multiple languages are required, then that feature could easily be added.

[@yoBradyO11]

horrid obnoxious music

[@juanmontoya4984]

It doesn't show since the very begining how to cut and put the seal, instead that stupid music got in my nerves!!!! . Didn't helped at all! Thanks for nothing!!

[@DoitDoit]

no worries just turn off the sound and listen to your own music 😃

[@thehpw]

Music made this unwatchable. Horrible.

[@assholeplayingxbox8313]

Are you really that old that you don’t know how to mute the audio from the video ? You could just listen to your own music

[@DoitDoit]

no worries, turn off the audio and play your own favourite music while you watch. Enjoy ✌️

[@assholeplayingxbox8313]

Sound made this not watchable? So you watch videos with your ears? 👂 worst troll comment ever

[@carkingz6086]

I bought mine for $100 but idk who in the hell would spend $800 on a few pieces of aluminum and glass?

[@DoitDoit]

Lucky you. Most Door set ups are from $600 & up. The glass is what you are really paying for.

[@jamesedwards647]

Bought mine for $40 new. Missing the hanging rail. Been looking for the part number

[@MedicNYC]

@@jamesedwards647 Like they say, you get what you pay for.

[@pholyfe]

That's a terrible tile job lol

[@assholeplayingxbox8313]

I like it

[@cortexback]

The tile job is terrible! I hope is not you who lay them. Gaps, not square and dents.

[@DoitDoit]

positive comments = positive people
