Inside the Install: Cambridge Style Shower Door

Every week at GlassBuild Connect, installers from the Shower Door Professionals group, led by Showcase Shower Door and Glass Gadget's Chris Phillips, will offer installation tips, helpful how-tos and in-the-field demonstrations from a range of projects. This week, Phillips demonstrates the installation of a Cambridge style shower door.

Thanks for the excellent video. I'm a home owner that doesn't mind taking on DIY projects. Ordered up a VERY similar Cambridge style duo glass door kit. The company has a video, but it's not the Cambridge style. So... this video is exactly what I needed to get a handle on how this was gonna go. Great job. I'll probably recommend this to that glass company to show other Cambridge customers.

Hey, it looks great! We have a very similar shower door. I do have a question, if you don't mind. Our left panel is fixed, and it goes all the way to the curb, and it's caulked, etc, so no problem. The right side slides, and is the inside door. And because of the slant of the curb, the bottom is about 1/2" from the curb. When water runs off of that door, it mostly drips on the curb and runs into the shower. But if a lot of water hits the door, it drips on the curb and sometimes ends up on the outside part of the curb (and sometimes runs over onto the floor). Because of the guide at the bottom, there's no room for a sweep on that sliding door. Do you ever have that problem? And do you have any ideas on how to fix? We were considering putting a clear shower dam on the curb to divert any water from getting to the floor. But maybe there's some kind of sweep that would work in this case? Thoughts? Thanks!

Where can I get the tool you used to adjust the height? What is that tool called? Appreciate your response.

[@stephharvey4897]

Can you tell me what the width, in inches, is of the bottom door guide? I'm working with a narrow threshold/curb of 2 3/8". Thanks!

[@ShowcaseInnovation]

Thanks for your question. That guide is 3" wide and 5/8" tall.
