How to Measure for a Frameless Glass Shower Door
Installing a frameless glass shower door can be a great way to update your bathroom and give it a more modern look. But before you can install a frameless glass shower door, you need to know how to measure for it. Here are the steps:
Materials You'll Need
- Measuring tape
- Pencil or pen
- Paper
- Level
Steps
1. Measure the width of the shower opening. This is the distance between the two walls where the shower door will be installed.
2. Measure the height of the shower opening. This is the distance from the top of the curb or threshold to the ceiling.
3. Measure the depth of the shower opening. This is the distance from the front of the curb or threshold to the back wall of the shower.
4. Subtract the thickness of the glass from the width and height measurements. This will give you the net opening size for the shower door.
5. Add 1/2 inch to the net opening size for the width and height measurements. This will give you the overall size for the shower door.
6. Draw a diagram of the shower opening on the paper. Include the measurements you took in steps 1-5.
7. Use the level to make sure that the shower opening is level. If the opening is not level, you will need to adjust the measurements accordingly.
8. Once you have a diagram of the shower opening and the measurements, you can order your frameless glass shower door.
Tips
- When measuring the width of the shower opening, make sure to measure at the top, middle, and bottom of the opening.
- When measuring the height of the shower opening, make sure to measure from the top of the curb or threshold to the ceiling.
- When measuring the depth of the shower opening, make sure to measure from the front of the curb or threshold to the back wall of the shower.

Conclusion
Measuring for a frameless glass shower door is not difficult, but it is important to be accurate. By following these steps, you can ensure that your shower door fits perfectly and looks great.
