Glad you are making videos. Missing the weekender 😞
I am going to do this project soon. Please bring back The Weekender!!!
Great job 👍
I've been wondering for some time now how this is actually done, then I came across your video.
Great job once again
Thank you! Taking on this project now and you have built up my confidence.
I'm a very visual learner, so this really helped. Thanks!
This was a great how to video! My wife and I are going to try this out.
Wow ..!! that was cool. It definitely looks beautiful with the new glass door.
You made it seems so easy and your voice is so relaxing, no tension 👍👏
Monica this is great!! I would love to try this for my shower.
At 10:52 you mention (again) that the sliding door track was screwed into the plastic shower threshold...that is risky since water is likely to get in there over time. IF you do drill it in place, please add a blob of clear mildew resistant silicone into the hole you just drilled and under the track to (hopefully) prevent water going into the hole over time - do all this before screwing it in place. Other glass door manufacturers and installers advise to use double sided tape to fasten that sliding door track (guide) in place, then silicone around it.
Uh they said to add silicone to the hole
I have always wanted a shower door like this- lets in max light for us visually impaired folks!
Thank you guys, this video was incredibly helpful!
Great tips actually. I would be installing some a week from today. Thanks so much for the tips 👍💙👌
Very elegant and useful work, thank you very much
Taking off the top part of the old frame looked kinda fun.
Thanks for sharing. This tutorial gives me a pretty good idea of what to do.
Monica, please work on a shower stall that can be enclosed to provide a “steam-like” experience without an actual steam unit. I have concerns about dealing with builder grade shower walls. How do you deal with the steam if only part of the wall is tiled? How does one deal with the ceiling light above the shower stall? What kind of steam escape can be installed when all the shower doors don’t reach the ceiling? What kind of fan must be installed to deal with so much steam once the shower door is opened? So glad you can work magic to a builder grade bathroom. Love your work!!! 👍😉💕🤩
Hi, love the weekender,please please came back Mônica
Awesome guide. Thanks a billion!!!
Hey; awesome presentation you both. Liked it very much. Thanks.
Miss seeing your videos....love the door.
That door looks so much better! Great job :)
What a great video. The best one by far on this topic!
This was so helpful i need a new shower door for my bathroom
Great video guys, this is definitely going to help me
This is exactly the project that I have up next on my "to do" list. Thankfully we don't need to remove the door!
Great demonstration, thanks
I cannot wait to do this!
This looked really easy. Easier than I thought
Monica was missing you!!!! When are you coming back with a Weekender new season? xxx
PS Love your bathroom (remembering the initial video, your kids must be really grown up ;-) ) and the new shower door it's gorgeous
More weekender episodes please!?!
Ugh, come back to us Monica! This was awesome :-D

Thank you. You bothe made it look so straightforward. I am not sure if I can find the frameless doors you put in here in Australia. Will go and do some searching.

Always make it look so darned easy, but stuff always happens in my house!!
This is very helpful.

Oh great, now I want a shower door. :D The installation doesn't look so scary anymore.
thank you very helpful...
Great tutorial!
Thanks - hope it was helpful!
Great job!
Lovely...thank you
Where can I see how you did the wall above the shower? It's beautiful.
Very helpful video about what I'm confused about is when I go to look up shower doors or kits everything has a set size how do I get a custom size?
Great job
Thanks for the video =)
Will The Weekender come back with new videos? If your out of ideas, you can come to my house and help my rental. 😂
Lol
Mine too!!! Or you can also come to my home!!!
I noticed that’s actually her house! I miss the Weekenderrrrr 😢
We want the weekender
Love it😍❣️
Nice.
Your video's are so cute and cool I'll rate it a 900088
We are planning exactly what you did here Inc,using maiming it taller. What did you do about the gap from the top of the shower line where the tile starts to the top of the vertical bar? It’s at least an inch. The door looks great but I’m concerned about that gap and water coming out both sides above where the shower liner ends.
Could you do a video installing and building g a barn door?
That’s a nice door. I’d like to replace mine but I may let Lowes do it.
Quarter or dime will work for the corners
I wonder if this could be done with just one person for the thick floating shower doors..?
Monica! Your bathroom still looks fantastic. The new shower door is great. I miss The Weekender! This has gone on long enough...come on Lowes. This is torture!
I actually bought the dated shower from someone who has upgraded their shower...can I use the existing glass for a new frame? Thank you for this video?
What if the tile above our shower is about 3/4 inch thinner than the shower wall? Just go up to the shower walls?
Added to my list cause I haven’t found a shower curtain I liked
Do you drill through the glass when attaching fixed panel to the wall track?
Can you do a video installing the other shower types?
When will the weekender come back????
I desire to change my shower door..especially after it mysteriously shattered one night. This seems so easy but I am nervous about the measuring, so I don't know what size door to order. I will have my sons to help. I'm gonna give it a go...😃
To install a bypass double door on those plastic showers kits with bathtub is it the same steps as far as drilling on the side for the rails? If I knock on the side of my shower walls it feels hollow inside. How would I install the side rails here, do I get longer screws?
what can you do if your shower is an odd width and they dont make shower doors that fit your space?
when is the weekender coming back?
I have a tub shower with tile at top and fiberglass wall tub and want to install bypass tub shower doors, but at a height higher than the fiberglass wall unit. Will thus kit wirk fir me? What name brand kit did you use and will the kit work for a bathtub?
I bought a shower door kit from Lowes that is almost the same. It's very heavy--ours is in Chrome finish. It's beautiful, but it leaks on the front edge corner. I think my contractor installed the front edging wrong after watching this video.
hi!
l like your hair color 😍💁🏼
What cleans it the best?
Weekender weekender weekender... Pleaseeee!!!
Do your local Stores offer Classes?
What about that space by the fixed door where the frame is taller than the fiberglass shower? It’s okay to leave that open? I ask because I’m installing a shower door and I have space on each side where the frame is taller than the fiberglass
Do we need to put a water seal on the bottom glass ? I mean, it would not attach that perfect, because the door is not settle, i mean we can open and close it.. so it would not seal that perfect.. can we replace with any plat and attach it on the bottom side glass ?
Did you use the same glass from the old shower??
Can somebody explain to me abiut when to use the anchor and when not? Thanks
