Fixing Slipping Frameless Shower Doors

Frameless shower doors can sometimes slip. When this happens, you need to find the cause so you can fix it right away. The cause of frameless shower doors slipping usually has to do with the hinges.

The most common cause for a shower door slipping is a hinge that has been placed incorrectly in the glass cutout. For a hinge to work correctly, there must be contact between the top of the hinge and the glass material.

Solution

At Portals Hardware, our hinges are specifically designed with a built-in spacer so the glass is not directly in contact with the metal. If you center the hinge in the cutout without using a spacer or block, the hinge will continue to slip.

To solve this problem, we recommend investing in a hinge from Portals Hardware. Contact us now to order a hinge or receive additional information about this issue.
