Q:Can I install this backwards so it opens in? I know it's not normal but it's the only way it will work for me.
by|Sep 3, 2017
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  You can, but you may experiencing leaking because the anti water strips will have to be positioned to the outside. Also, you will have to make sure the panel does not hit your plumbing fixtures. A better choice may be the DreamLine Encore bypass shower door (model #SHDR-1654760-06). This shower door features 2 sliding panels, allowing you to have access at either end of your shower. You can put that model number in The Home Depot search field and it will come up for you to view. If you have any other questions or would like to discuss this further, please contact the DreamLine Customer Support Team at 866.731.2244. We are available 8am-7pm EST, Monday through Friday, and Saturdays from 9am to 5pm EST and will be happy to answer any questions you may have. You may also send an email to support@dreamline.com.

        Q:Can I request it without the glass shelves?
        by|Feb 13, 2017

        Answer This Question

        A:  No, the door is predrilled and the shelves are design to add stability to the door. I didn't think I would like them at first but after installing they look great and have become useful.

        by|May 5, 2023

          A:  Unfortunately, the glass shelves are the source of support for the stationary panel, so the door can not be ordered without them. DreamLine does have the Unidoor-X shower door that does not require shelves or any other source of support. Please do not hesitate to call the DreamLine Customer Support Line at 866-731-2244. If you prefer an email response, please send an email to support@dreamline.com. Our knowledgeable Customer Support Technicians are available M-F, 8am-7pm EST and Saturday from 9am-5pm EST to answer any questions you may have. Thank you for considering DreamLine!

            Q:Precast shower base has a flat, wide threshold, but it has a slight slope to shed water to the inside of the shower. Will the bottom pivot properly support the door when mounted on this surface, or will it be impossible to support the door vertically?

            A:  I didn’t order the inside of the shower we decided to go with tiles instead and the installer did slant the floor so the water would drain properly.The door wasn’t a problem we built the base with tile so the doors installed very well .dated December 29th 2019 would recommend this to anyone

            by|Jan 21, 2020

              A:  The DreamLine Elegance shower door should install perfectly on your shower base. All shower bases have some slope to the threshold, usually between 3-5°. A slope that is unusually steep would be the only issue. If you have any other questions, please contact the DreamLine Customer Support Team at 866-731-2244 or via email at support@dreamline.com.

                    Answer This Question

                    A:  The Elegance shower door, like all DreamLine shower doors, is designed to open outward. If your space can not accommodate an outward opening shower door, you may want to consider the Encore Bypass Sliding Shower Door. It is available in a size to fit an opening 50" to 54" wide and the model number is SHDR-1654760-01. You can put that model number in the Home Depot search field and it will come up for you to view.

                          Answer This Question

                          A:  Shorty, DreamLine does have a Custom Glass division and The Home Depot will be able to help you with this. They will need to submit a drawing of what you need with accurate dimensions and a quote will be generated. You can then decide if you want to make the purchase. Tempered glass can not be cut, so you will not be able to purchase and cut afterwards. The glass must be cut to size before the tempering process. Please contact your local Home Depot and if there are any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the DreamLine Customer Support Team at 866-731-2244. We are available 8am-7pm EST, Monday through Friday to answer any questions you may have. Thank you for your interest in DreamLine! We look forward to helping you!

                            Q:I do NOT want the glass shelves mounted to the door. Are there holes in the stationary panel? Do you have other similar pivot doors without the shelves? Thanks.

                            A:  MT, Unfortunately, the Elegance must be used with the shelves as they are a source of support for the stationary panel. Alternate doors would be the Unidoor or the Unidoor Plus. Both have models that will span an opening 60-61". The Unidoor has a support bar at the top, but the Unidoor Plus was designed to be used without a support arm or shelves. They are not pivot doors, but are hinged doors with the moving door mounted directly to a finished wall that has studs behind it. All of our pivot style doors have shelves on the stationary panel. We would recommend that you take your finished opening measurements at the top, middle and bottom of your opening and give the DreamLine Customer Support Team a call. We can be reached at 866-731-2244 or email us at support@bathauthority.com. We are available 8am-7pm EST, Monday through Friday to answer any questions you may have and help you choose the perfect door for your bathroom. Thank you for your interest in DreamLine!
