The job
A shower with dark blue subway tile and a pebble floor had only a curtain rod across it. The after photo shows a framed sliding glass door closing the opening.
Typical steps for this job
The photos show the start and the finish; these are the usual steps in between:
- The old rod came down.
- The bottom track and the side rails were fitted to the tile.
- The two sliding glass panels were hung and adjusted to glide.
- The rails were sealed against the tile.
Drilling glazed tile needs a tile bit and a slow start; a cracked tile is the typical way this job goes wrong. The opening is measured at the top, the middle and the bottom before the door is ordered, because tiled walls are rarely perfectly plumb.
