Customer Reviews for DreamLine Encore 56 in. to 60 in. W x 76 in. H Sliding Semi-Frameless Shower Door in Chrome

I love my new shower door. There is a coating on the glass that keeps it fro spotting. Couldn’t be happier with this purchase!!!

It looks beautiful. Exactly the same as in the picture. It goes perfect with our black decoration.

These doors look beautiful. One door broke during install It ruined the bottum and one side rail. They replaced everything and only took 2 weeks to get the parts. I even called during the holidays. So happy i decided on this door!

Purchased this matte black shower door as part of a total bathroom renovation. The shower door is beautiful! Very sturdy. My contractor cut the bottom track wrong and I called DreamLine to order a replacement. They had it to me within 3 days and at no cost! I will recommend DeamLine to everyone! I'm sorry that the picture is blurry but you will get the idea.

This a quality product and the only reason I have rated it 4 stars rather than 5 is partly because of my installation. Even with the two sliding doors, my access is really limited to one side. The arrangements of the towel racks make it such that, no matter what, if you are entering/exiting from only one side -- then either on entry or exit, you have nothing really to grab on to slide the door open (or closed). It's completely understandable why you could not have towel racks inside and out (it would not be possible to open the door at all with a towel rack on both the inside and outside of the door)... but I nice little touch would be to have a small handle pull opposite the outer-most mounting point of the towel rack (on the other side of the glass from the towel rack).

This product was easy to assemble. Key is to read the instructions carefully and take your time.

I'll let the picture speak for itself!! Even my Handyman said this is a very nice sturdy door(his first time install)!! Never in a million years did I think my condo reno could be an episode on HGTV or DIY disasters but the end result is all worth it!! End my realtor said "You need a reno show!!!"

Beautiful door!

The door is beautiful. Heavy duty glass and hardware. I would have given it 5 stars if I could only get the one door to move smoothly on the track. I will need the contractor to return to adjust the door since it seems it is just a minor out of plumb issue. You should utilize a contractor to install the door unless you are skilled in that area of expertise. Not a one person job due to the weight of the glass. I have only had it installed for a week but I am pleased with the overall function and beauty of the door.

excellent glass door bougth 2 and can not be more happier with my purchase

Let me preface this review by saying I consider myself VERY handy, have a garage full of tools, and am a larger statured man. Even so, I was pretty nervous about installing this by myself, having never installed glass shower doors before. However, due to the extremely simple design, and with a little brute strength, install was actually very straight forward and borderline easy. I'm thinking it probably took me a little over two hours, and I was even able to do it without an assistant. And NO LEAKS!!! I had it delivered to my front door, the box is something like 150 lbs, but I was able to get it inside without a problem and then carried it piece by piece upstairs to my master bathroom. Install was fairly seamless, I used a hack saw and a saws all to cut the metal pieces to length, and used a wet diamond drill bit to drill the holes in my tile. I only realized afterward how important is was to make the cuts as close to exact as possible because most of the strength of the doors come from tight fitting joints, and not from screws into the wall. Which was actually perfect for me because I had tiled the shower myself (first for that too), and I was nervous about the strength of the doors relying on my tile job. Of note, the instructions included with my door did not include the dimensions of the bottom metal runner, which subsequently resulted in a mismeasure and miscut of that piece. Fortunately I realized it before I caused irreparable damage. Take home point: The instructions ONLINE at Home Depot DO include the dimensions of the bottom runner, so consult the online installation PDF when it comes to that part, just to be safe. Also of note, the the shower doors seam very sturdy thus far, but I do have two concerns. 1) Although the install was simplified by only necessitating the drilling of 6 holes into my tile...it does make me nervous that the entire structure is held in place by only 6 screws and a lot of silicone. Like I said, the majority of strength of the design comes from tight joints of the frame...but, it still makes me a little nervous. And 2) The wall 'bumpers' and bottom guide for the glass are made from plastic, and I actually cracked the bottom guide slightly while tightening the screws...but Im hoping the massive amount of silicone I applied when installing it will keep if from breaking completely. In my opinion, these bumpers and bottom guide are the most likely part to fail if the glass panels take any significant unintentional bump. Despite my minor concerns for the lifetime durability of the product, so far it has exceeded my expectations in quality, value, and ease of install. I hope this review is helpful, and gives you the courage to carry out your own install.

Very nice door that I went ahead and bought one for the walk-in-shower and the other bathroom.

The clear glass on the door is absolutely beautiful and easy to keep clean. Just wipe off with your towel after using. I have received compliments from everyone that has seen the upgrade. I would highly recommend this product and plan on installing one in the master bathroom as well.

It looks fantastic...way above my expectations!!!

The Dreamline shower doors were relatively easy to install, with some carpenter experience. Doors are extremely heavy to hang, so best to have a second person on hand at that stage. They are very pretty - exactly what I was wanting.

My wife loves the new shower doors. They look good and roll smoothly.

Very nice door. I previously submitted my review, but couldn't upload my photo, so I am trying again.

This black framed shower door blends in perfectly with our slate shower--looks like an unframed door but without the additional shattering risk of the thicker unframed glass. These doors are fairly heavy though, and no room for error if you bump an edge as you unpack them (any bumping at all can weaken the glass structure and lead to eventual shattering of the glass), but two of us were able to get it upstairs and install it ourselves. The directions say to screw on the top tabs and lift the top bar as you set it in--we found this just too difficult because of the weight. Instead we held the door in place inside the top and bottom bars and screwed the tabs in at that point and that worked fine.

This is a beautiful and high quality shower door. I bought it in oil-rubbed bronze and it looks really nice with all my bronze fixtures in my bathroom. The glass is thick and the whole thing feels more expensive than I paid for it. I had a professional install it for me and he told me that it was easy and straightforward.

Overall was not bad putting up. You will need two people, as the doors are heavy. The look is handsome, in oil rubbed bronze. The instructions guide you through the process, easy to understand.

I bought two of these and was very pleased. Glass is thick and sturdy and slides easy. I did not install, so do not know if it was difficult. Looks very rich and I love it. I would recommend.

Nice looking door! Very sturdy. Also it is 6 inches taller than most of the other doors. I did think it said it came with the coating that lessens water spots but the person who installed it said it didn’t?!!? Any suggestions on products I can apply to do this? I do love the door and would buy it again.

The door are beautiful and look great. We had same water getting on the floor,but once we switched the doors around the problem was solved.

Love the look of this shower door!! Had a chipped corner when it was unpacked. Customer service is sending a replacment door under warranty. Very good quality and great customer service. Would definitely recommend this product.

Quality seems good. Glass rolls smoothly. Have only used it once though, so time will tell. Laborious installation process and instructions can be vague sometimes.

Beautiful. Handles are very cool and love the top. Great price and the matte black is classy. NOTE: It comes in two boxes, make sure you get both. We accidentally forgot one when we picked it up and by the time we realized it, it was lost. Manufacurer shipped replacement immediately though.

These nice doors were added last month to finish our new ceramic tiled shower that replaced the original one piece tub unit in our master bathroom. I wanted the unit to be tall enough to walk thru on entry, since I am 6 feet tall, and 76" tall frame works well. Doors are heavy glass and well made, and the rollers move them very well.

Looks beautiful. The doors slide nicely. Love the clear glass showing the tiled shower walls. Could not be happier with these shower doors!

This shower door is well made! The glass doors are very heavy and not flimsy! There are no leaks since there's a bottom rail. No water splashes out where the 2 doors meet either. I'm very impressed with this shower door!!

These doors are beautiful and add a rich, striking element to the bath we installed them in last month. Installation is relatively straight-forward and I was able to get the rails position and caulked in a couple of hours. Installing the doors themselves took about half an hour and you will absolutely need a friend to do so. The materials are high-quality and the glass is thick and heavy and the accessory pieces are well-made and handsome. This is a terrific system that is forgiving during installation and beautiful upon completion!
