How do you fix a glass shower door.

Remove the guide so you can take off the shower doors. Make it by mixing some lemon water or vinegar with dish detergent and wipe your door down with it. Turn the screws counterclockwise so that they are loose but do not remove them. Check the gaskets to make sure that they are the correct thickness for your glass thickness.

Put the shower doors back in place and ensure that they are rolling correctly. If the spinners don t turn clean them with a damp rag and apply a bit of spray lubricant. The final part of the cleaning process involves scrubbing the entire door. Find the screws that connect the glass door to the frame at the hinges.

Give it a tap with a hammer or gently separate it. If the latch is in good condition you re going to simply want to clean and re apply the door. Look closely at the rollers spin them and see if they turn freely. If it s only cracked or broken on the latch itself all you re going to have to do is take a piece from your local home improvement store to replace it.

Once this is done wipe your shower down with a magic eraser sponge. First you re going to unscrew your latch from the shower door. Using the end of a flathead screwdriver gently insert the end under the top part of the hinge where it meets the frame. Using the screwdriver remove either the guide rail that runs along the edge of the door or the plastic guide that sits in the middle of the lower track.
