How to Install a 3-Panel Sliding Shower Door

Tools and Materials You'll Need:
* 3-panel sliding shower door * Measuring tape * Level * Pencil * Drill * Screwdriver * Caulk gun * Caulk * Sponge * TowelStep 1: Measure and Mark the Opening
Start by measuring the width and height of the shower opening. Mark the center of the opening on the floor and walls.
Step 2: Install the Header Track
Attach the header track to the top of the shower opening, centered on the marks you made in Step 1. Secure the track with screws.
Step 3: Install the Door Panels
Lift the door panels into the header track. Make sure they are aligned properly and that they slide smoothly.
Step 4: Install the Bottom Track
Attach the bottom track to the floor of the shower, centered on the marks you made in Step 1. Secure the track with screws.
Step 5: Install the Door Jambs
Attach the door jambs to the sides of the shower opening, making sure they are plumb and level. Secure the jambs with screws.
Step 6: Caulk the Gaps
Apply a bead of caulk to the joints between the door panels, the header track, the bottom track, and the door jambs. Smooth the caulk with a sponge.
Step 7: Clean Up
Wipe away any excess caulk with a towel. Allow the caulk to dry completely before using the shower.
