How to Avoid Breaking Glass Shower Doors & Enclosures 

Not exactly what I was looking for but super interesting & informative. Thanks!

Good info. Thanks Mark.

Thanks for the explanation

I would like to know if there would be less of a chance of a frameless sliding glass shower door (only one door sliding, other glass panel fixed) shattering if there are the following: 1. The glass panels are 3/8 inch thick (hopefully the thicker the glass, the less chance of shattering?) 2. Vertical PVC/vinyl seals on all edges of the glass except the edge of the glass of the fixed panel which is attached to a metal strip, attached to the wall 3. On the bottom edge of both the fixed panel and sliding glass door, there are PVC/vinyl seals 4. On the top metal support bar where the rollers are, there is a rubber shower door stopper near each side end. 5. There are two anti jump pegs under the metal support bar. Thank you, Linda

What about the top side of sliding shower doors? I see ours is clamped with looks like aluminum clamps, not rubber between that. Just metal to glass. Should I add rubber spacers?

Just happened to me last night! Impressive and now it s sore, arm, hand...so dangerous!

moisture will de laminate glass

Where can we find this safety film online ? Is it on amazon?

You cannot avoid it. Problem is with glass and manufacturing

such an informative video

That's informative an all but would you mind telling me how long a bath back scrubber handle should I have to avoid bumping it into the shower doors plz?

Thank you Mark, very good video. Just a question, why do we need to apply the safety film on the exterior of the door not the inside?

Nice T-Shirt!

Thank you - my shower door "exploded" at 2am last night. My wife though we might have a ghost :) but on a serious note it is massively dangerous - if our child had been in the room when it happened the consequences would have been unthinkable,

Just happened to me last night....I wanna know why is this happenening...my bathroom can be cold during winter months....but I take hot or warm showers could this be why?

I need to replace the handles on my shower door. Can i use a glass/tile drill bit to widen the hole for the bolt through the glass? It is currently 6mm and I need it to be 8mm

So whatever happened to the good old metal reinforced glass shower doors?

Thanks good advice but how should I transport the glass (by car)

do you find that toughened glass which has a bevelled profile edge for a transparent 'H' joining bead used in internal glass walls shatters with thin sharp shards around the edge due to the bevelled profile. ??? I had an injury at work and recieved a puncture wound which they now claim was not possible. thanks for the useful vid !

Hear is one advice replace it with plastick

You mentioned installing safety film on the exterior of the door. Where can I get this film and what is the exact name of it?

My shower door exploded while my 9 years old daughter was in the shower. Luckily she was uninjured! THE INDUSTRY MUST MAKE CORRECTIONS instead of passing the buck!
