    Angry Poorly built sliding shower door

    We started having problems opening and closing the sliding Mylar shower door. Most of the time it takes several attempts to close it and opening it is a whole nother story. It finally got to a point where the top guide rail would pop off of the side rail ( held together with a cheap plastic connector mounted on an even cheaper rivet attached to the side rail ) and fall to the ground. Not fun when you are standing there wet and naked. Anyhow does anyone else have this problem and is there a way to fix it or better yet replace it?

    We like the shower door, but ours is slightly crooked, in that the top is tight while the bottom is loose when the door is latched closed. This makes it slightly difficult to latch it closed when we are in the shower, but has served us well for the past 10 months (even during our 16 week trip that we just returned from). Anyway, I have an appointment for warranty work in two weeks and have asked then to look at it before the warranty is up. I don't see any way to adjust it so I hope that they will just replace it.

    Some of these same issues have been discussed in other threads..... but the short is this..... Try to have it repaired under waranty. Ours had the top rail come lose and would allow the door to sometimes snap back violently and the top rail fall to the floor. Once fixed (under waranty) worked like a champ, and love its operation and space saving convenience as others have also said about these showers. Search Nautilus sliding shower doors.

    Definitely a nice idea at the start but has proved to be a faulty design. We just bought a nice shower curtain and used the cross brace at the top to hang it. Had to trim a little off the bottom but it works just fine.
