Shower Door Adjustment and Realignment

Tune up a door that drags, drifts open, leaks or rubs so it closes cleanly and sits square again.

Doors drift out of alignment as hardware settles, screws loosen and walls move. A door that rubs the panel, swings open by itself, will not latch or leaks at the edge often needs adjustment rather than replacement. With a few careful changes, the door can sit square again and close with a gentle touch, and a good adjustment can also extend the life of the hardware.

We check how the door sits against the wall, the panel and the curb, and we look at hinges, brackets, rollers and seals. We tighten and adjust hardware in small steps, level the door, set the reveal and gap at the closing edge and adjust the sweep. Then we test the door with water and show you what we changed.

Level and plumb

We check the door with a level and adjust hinges or rollers so it hangs square and closes against its seal evenly.

Gaps and reveals

Even gaps around the door look better and leak less. We set the reveal at the closing edge and at the top.

Tightening safely

Loose fasteners and over-tightened ones both cause trouble. We tighten to the right firmness and replace worn parts.

Water test

We run water along the edges to confirm that the door seals well and the adjustment solved the problem.

Questions

Shower Door Adjustment and Realignment FAQ

Why does my door swing open by itself?

The door may be out of plumb or the hinges slightly off. Adjusting the hinges or leveling the door usually fixes it.

Can a door rub the panel?

Yes, if hinges have shifted. We adjust the hinges or the panel so the gap is even.

Is realignment permanent?

It lasts a long time when hardware is sound. Worn parts may need replacement.

Will adjustment stop leaks?

It often helps a lot, especially combined with new seals and a sweep.

Do you adjust frameless and framed doors?

Yes. Frameless doors adjust at the hinges and clamps. Framed doors adjust at the rollers and frame.
