Clamps or U-Channel (Frameless Glass Shower)
Comments (12)I have a 3/8" u channel on the top of my pony wall which is the only glass I have in my shower. The glass place insisted that there was no such thing as a 3/8" u channel and tried to sell me a 3/4" but I googled it to show them otherwise and pushed them and they ordered it. It looks great and is much less visible....See MoreGlass shower/bath doors with no bottom track

Comments (1)Sounds like the track on my mom's shower/tub. It's not supposed to swing, right? ;D We have several rental properties and I'd seriously urge you to notify your LL. That's just a recipe for disaster and the kind (possibly resulting in injury) that any decent LL does not want. It doesn't cost all that much to have the whole deal reinstalled new, especially compared to the cost of someone getting hurt....See MoreCan you attach a glass shower door to glass wall tile
Comments (3)I have glass tiles but I guess mine are different. But I will say this if you get 10 glass door companies out there you will get 10 opinions on what needs to happen. The people that don't bring levels and such get rid of them first. They wanted to put support rods across the top of mine and drill into my floor. Here is how mine is constructed maybe you can tweak it to fit your needs. I have a 28" wide x 80" tall 3/8" thick door that has 45 deg hinges that swings off of a 1/2" thick piece of glass that goes from floor to ceiling. There are 2 clips on the wall and one at the top where this glass goes to the ceiling. This holds the panel steady. It is just siliconed at the wall and bottom, no drilling into floor. The other fixed panel is 28" wide x 80" tall 3/8" thick and has only one small attachment at the top corner the rest is siliconed in. It works beautifully and you see the true beauty of the glass not a bunch of hardware and head rails. My Glass tiles are bullet proof as it is glass laminated onto porcelain and it is really tough to drill through but I don't think they should have a problem using the correct drill bit and possibly keeping it wet while drilling with acetone or water to keep it cool. This company might have had problems before and they are now nervous with the situation. I suggest that you keep getting quotes. It's a pain and slows the process but in the end positive results....See Moremillworkman
