Before construction begins consider proper structural support. Heavy glass enclosures with 3/8" and ½" glass may require behind the wall stud support. By involving EASCO early in the design phase we can build the safest possible enclosure. EASCO will evaluate tub and shower layouts to advise what is the best configuration for the customer. Considering limitations, options, and design of an EASCO shower door beforehand may prove critical before the construction of your shower area has begun. It is helpful to submit design requests and questions into an EASCO dealer at the beginning of the process.

All tile and marble should be installed using a consistent bed of mastic. Any voids can cause cracking of tile.

All knee walls, buttresses, thresholds and sills should be level and plumb. A slight 1/8" pitch into the shower will help prevent leakage.

Consider objects such as toilets, pedestal sinks and vanities when determining door swing.

Body sprays and multiple headed showers can cause leakage problems. Consider placement of door openings and hinges. Every effort will be made to provide as water tight of enclosure as possible. Some seepage should be expected and considered normal

EASCO will make every attempt to provide as watertight an enclosure as possible. Due to the nature of all heavy 3/8" and ½" glass enclosures, some seepage is possible depending on water spray conditions inside the shower. Body sprays and hand held shower attachments are directly related to potential seepage problems.
