FAQ

1. How to select a shower door?

Any material used on your walls such as backerboard, tile, or acrylic walls will decrease the size of your rough opening.

  • Check if your walls are even/plumb
  • Check if your shower room size is suitable
  • Choose a shower door type (  a shower door or tub shower door)
  • Choose swing or sliding
  • Choose your glass thickness
  • Choose semi-frameless or frameless

2. How to know what size shower door I need for my opening?

    Ordering the correct size shower/tub door is so essential for a proper installation. Measuring must be done after the tile or finished wall material has been installed. Check to ensure that your walls are plumb and that your shower base/tub or flat surface shower floor is level. Please refer to our “How to measure” page for measuring instructions. If you're still unsure about the size or installation requirements, it's best to consult with a professional installer or retailer who can help you choose the right shower door for your space.

     

    3. What does frameless and semi-frameless mean?

      A frameless door refers to a glass door that does not have any visible frames or supporting structures around its edges. While a semi-frameless door has a partial frame or supporting structure around its edges, typically made of the same material as the frameless door.

      Delavin's shower doors are available in both framed, semi-frameless so as to meet different needs.
