    Question Corner Shower Door

    We have an ordinary corner shower, the two curved doors pull to the center to close on our reflection TT. Using the rubber loop to keep it closed works great when traveling, but when we are stopped and showering, the door often pops open, and if it does it while you aren't looking it can make a watery mess outside. Is there anything that can be used from inside the shower to keep it closed while showering?

    Sounds like the door needs to be balanced, or remounted, something. We have the same shower doors, and it's never opened while we were showering.

    Maybe a short bungee cord, with hooks at each end to hook on the outside edges of the doors when closed?

    Had another thought. Does the magnetic strip on the edge of the door make good contact with the other? On our shower doors, those came off early on and my husband had to reglue them.

    Hated that Shower

    If the rig is level and the hinges are adjusted correctly the doors should not open. Each door has a magnetic strip on the leading edge that holds the doors together.
    The problem that we had with that design is that when held closed with the rubber loop there was still movement of the doors and they would often come unhinged while traveling. We started running a bungee from the handles to a cabinet and the stayed together fairly well while traveling after that. The stops in the track really need to be longer to prevent movement.
