Glass Shower Door If Wall Not Level

I didn t put a door at all and only small amount of water drops splash out.

Glass shower door if wall not level.

Lower on the drain side. It is 5 8 out of level. Material on the wall such as backerboard and tile can reduce the wall to wall width by as much as 1 inch on each side. This ridge has a slope to it.

I am trying to install a sliding glass shower door on a tub that the previous owners did not install level. The new doors swing both in and out. The bottom of the glass door shows the silver trim being pulled in well tight. When i place the jamb on the wall i get as much as a 3 8 inch gap between jamb and wall.

The on off handle for the shower was moved to the entry area wall and the shower head is on the opposite wall. Without moving the track use a 4 foot level to adjust the jamb until it s plumb. The tub has sort of ridge that runs along the top of the tub. On the side of the shower opening that will support the door hold a jamb piece against the wall so that its lower end fits into the base track.

I am trying to install a framed shower door. Any ideas on how i can get this door installed. Clear glass shower doors showcase tile and stonework in the shower and can make the small space of. Both of these can be frameless.

My problem is that it that the wall is out of plumb do to a poorly installed shower enclosure. With the tub being out of level the doors do not slide properly they barely slide at all. Fixing it this way lets you install and set up the shower door so that it opens and closes like normal. And there is a lot more surface area for the glue to bind to.

You dont have to have an oversized sleeve on the hinge size.
