My center guide has no screws that I can remove. Although there seems to be a screw at the base where the doors slide making it inaccessible for removal. How can I remove the glass panels in this setup?
Hi Amy, other than replacing the tile, you can use a mold and mildew-resistant silicone that matches the color of the tile as good as possible. Once the hole is filled, use a razor blade to smooth the top.
Mine is the same way too. They silicones the middle of the track on the bottom. I was able to loosen the sides. And those are loose but can get the middle of the track to come off. I even used a crow bar!
My shower door is old and doesn't have a center guide. It has two grooves instead, one for each door. Is that type of shower door removable by simply lifting up and out?
Hi Debi, using a new utility knife with a sharp blade, cut away the silicone inside and out and pry it up with a 5 in 1 painter's tool, flathead screwdriver, or a putty knife. Once it is up, if there is silicone on the threshold, scrape as much off as you can, then use the fresh blade to cut the rest off.
can i install a bypass shower door on a fiberglass/acrylic/prefab shower with bathub? The stall walls portrudes on the side about an 1" I think so I don't know how would I install the side wall rails on this type of shower.?
Hi Marco, a bypass door can be installed on fiberglass/acrylic material. The vertical wall jambs are 1 1/2" minimum width and need to sit flush against the wall so that they are perpendicular to the horizontal track that sits on the threshold and the horizontal header that holds the door panels. We hope this information helps! Please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer service if you need more help.

they clearly just installed the door for the purpose of removing it for the video. mine looks disgusting and is brass colored...so this isn't an accurate video...also you would not haul it off in a van...you would break the glass and throw it in a bag
I agree! This tub is way to clean. Mine is from the 1980s. And they silicone the crap on the bottom track. Onto a cast iron tub! I broke a piece of tile on the wall. And I now have gouged Mark's on my tub from trying to pry off the bottom track with a crow bar!!
Word up….I removed my doors and under that railing bar, there was a city of fungi with swimming pools and cabanas! From the outside I never suspected anything like that was going on. 😡
Nice, thank you! My little handgirl self was able to remove my annoying glass doors thanks to this video.
This was just as easy as you made it look. Thank you!
How or what did you use to fill screw holes in tile?
MY EXACT QUESTION! Nobody is telling you how, I'm trying to find that part out!
epoxy to fill..with appliance paint over the hole
If I want to be incredibly lazy and am not going for aesthetics can I just use caulk to fill in the screw holes?

...and how to fill the screw holes from the tile? thanks.

Nice explanation, thanks
where can I find a replacent sliding glass panel door for my bathroom,, one panel was broken. measures. height 55 and 30 inch
Go to the hardware store not the internet
What shall I do if they caulked the rails entirely to the sides and bottom? 😕 it is not just on the ends.
Mine is the same way too. They silicones the middle of the track on the bottom. I was able to loosen the sides. And those are loose but can get the middle of the track to come off. I even used a crow bar!

Yes, that is what I have and the doors just lift up and out.
The person that installed the one I'm trying to remove sliconed the whole bottom track. Does anyone know how to remove that!

@@BascoShowers thank u
Thanks. Removing mine soon. I don’t like them.
I'm pretty sure they used some type of glue for the bottom track on mine
Mine too. How did you remove it?
I have the same problem. I guess I'll go to Home Depot tomorrow and ask for their advice. 2 yrs ago, maybe you found a solution?
Damn, the whole reason I watched was to see what to fill the holes with and they didn't even say it
Same...

It was really just an install played in reverse

That was a rather new one. There's no way underneath that bar the tub is that clean.
