@ Scott Marcum a Frameless shower door system has no frame around the door. the track around the perimeter of the shower is needed for support. anyone who trust silicone to hold a 100 lbs piece of glass is asking for trouble. you can get showers with smaller track but it is always a good idea to use something for support other than silicone.
Like others have stated, this is not a frameless shower. It's a SEMI-frameless kit. Possibly why the word "Illusion" is in the kit's name. On a side note, there should be no silicone easily visible in a properly installed enclosure (if one looks for it, they'll find it but the casual observer shouldn't see a bead on the outside). When using a frame channel like this kit, silicone the bottom of the channel before screwing it to the walls then clean up any "squish out".
What brand door is this? Seems to me to be a hybrid of semi-frameless and frameless. The Frameless doors I install use no threshold. We also use Clamps to hold all panels. Our doors use 2 or 3 wall hinges (or pivot hinges if required) depending upon height and thickness. Clean install you did though!
Looking to get mine replaced soon. I have someone coming out in a couple of weeks for a quote. Anyone have any idea what I'm looking at in terms of cost to have a pro do it? I live in NC, if that matters. About the same size as the one in this video, but the knee wall is tub height.
I LOVE THIS This is EXACTLY what I want to do in my master bath... problem is... the plumbing is on the wall where the glass was placed, and the opposite wall is an exterior wall...
This is extremely difficult... i do this and frameless and I would love to see someone with no exp. Do this for the first 4 hours.. if they don't break the glass first that is.... do yourself a favor and leave the headache to people who do this all the time. And don't buy pre fab kits, 8 of 10 walls are not level or plumb!! Get someone that makes the glass to account for this
this what I do at my job for a living. this video will have you do Alot of extra stuff you don't need to do. Especially all that silicone he gone have Yall showers looking real sloppy lol
LaDarius Fletcher - Coastal ShowerDoors appreciates your comment on our Illusion Frameless Shower Door Installation overview. Please allow us to respond by stating that this is truly a very simple frameless shower door to install especially when compared to products that include glass fittings and require cut-out notches or holes. Additionally, regarding the comment about the caulking, the shower enclosure was designed so that only a tiny bead around the outside perimeter of the Extrusion is visible. Let us know if we may assist you with anything in the future. -Pat
1. This is not a frameless shower. 2. Hope you have 5 to 7 hours to spareto install it if you've never done one. 3. They don't tell you if your walls or curls are out of plumb or level more than a 1/4" you'r screwed. 4. Quit putting silicone in the channel. It is absolutely pointless.
This is not a true "frameless" enclosure! It is a "semi-frameless" ... you have a full vertical metal extrusion running along the hinge side or wet wall that is attached to the door glass. Frameless means no metal around door at all... with minimal metals elsewhere (i.e. Fixed panel) to secure the rest of the enclosure. This is not a true representation of an frameless shower enclosure.
I feel sorry for the dude he has to do a Lot of extra work for the shower enclosure. How is the door not a heavy. !!! That just ruined the whole shower!!! And it takes a base track instead of U-channel metal. Looks nice but just a horrible design!!! I'm from Arizona we do better work out here

I hate when I have to remove a panel and there's silicone in the channel
