    Great video tutorial. Walked through it step by step, didn't have to go back to fix anything, went in perfectly! The only thing we did differently was to draw pencil lines on the walls fully around the leveled frame for reference and placed the bead of silicone on the wall and floor instead of on the frame. We took or time, about an hour and a half, and it's perfect! Thanks a million!

    Outstanding! Definitely helps to clarify the written instructions. My one and only gripe about the install is hanging the door.
    We tried several times to set the bottom wheels in the track and then lift up the door to drop the upper wheels into the top track. We ended up setting the top wheels in place and then used the plunger on the bottom wheels to get them into the track.

    When I originally received my shower enclosure in April 2023 the packaging was heavily damaged, but all parts survived unscathed, somehow! I am just now ready to install, and have been watching this very good video, and I'm sure it will go smoothly. The only confusion/problem was that upon unpacking the sealed small parts boxes, there were 2 extra sets of wheels, two extra handles of some sort, and extra miscellaneous hardware packages!! All the parts I NEED are present and accounted for, so we're good to go!

    Great instructions, thanks! I got it installed no problem. Quality product and looks great. I like the way it was designed, very forgiving of out-of-plumb walls. The weight of the doors comes straight down on the frame and not the walls like it does in a frameless design.

    Awesome instruction video, save us few hundred bucks to hire a handyman. I've successfully installed it from this video without reading the manual, pictures worth a thousand words. Dreamline should fire all the tech manual writers and keep these folks around for video instructions only, it's a different time now ... everything digitals.
    - Price is mid point for a luxurious finish
    - The design of the hardware on glasses positions are excellent, hard to make mistake. I only have to worry about which side is the door.
    - The drag .... When hanging the door by bottom wheels first per instruction, I had trouble pushing the door up to engage both top wheels. What I did was removing the bottom wheels, hang the door only from the top wheels first then carefully sliding in the bottom wheels and screw them up, it was a piece of cake (for my case).

    This isn't an easy door to install by any stretch. The video does help....some, but don't get it confused. There is certainly a reason they are showing you this tutorial. I renovate homes, and do a great, but this door took a little more time than expected. Few issues here and there, but I won't complain. I got the door in good. Wish the mentioned or discussed installing in tiled shower. Just my 2 cents

    Great video and manual was good (and matched instructions here well). Take your time, it's worth it rather than rushing.
    My tips would be to be very careful how deep you are drilling. I almost went all the way through because I wasn't thinking. Do not use a power drill to drive any of the screws except the screws going into the studs, too easy to strip in the soft metal (aluminum, I'm guessing).
    Otherwise not particularly difficult at all.

    Very helpful video. What do you recommend for a gap ( 3/4 in) between the bottom frame and the fixed shower door? Caulk does not seem an appropriate solution.

      Hello Billy. Thanks for reaching out to DreamLine! The Infinity-Z allows for one inch of out-of-plumb adjustment on either side of the shower. By subtracting 3-3/8" from the shortest width measurement, any out of plumb condition should be accounted for, within the one-inch limit of the model. We would recommend contacting our Customer Support Department if any further help or explanation is needed. We can be reached by sending an email to support@dreamline.com and through our Chat with Expert feature on DreamLineShowers.com. Our hours of operation are 9am-6pm EST, Monday through Friday.

    Install went sort of okay, thankful for the video to help, but there's room for improvement on both video & printed instructions. There were a few bloopers in instructions- one said to refer to a certain page for details and it was the wrong page, and a part referred to in instructions had a typo and referred to wrong part. Install steps that didn't make sense: caulking under the frame then continuing to work and it's getting slid around ruining that bead and smearing it around. I saw that my silicone bead underneath was getting smeared around, probably rendering it useless and making exposed messes so I stopped and let it cure a while. I hate cleaning up smeared silicone so I wish I'd have set the frame in along my carefully marked pencil marks, secured the wall screws, then walked away and not touched it again for a while. Would have kept a better seal underneath and not made a mess to clean up. The door was a pain to hang, after putting bottom rollers in and lifting up on door we still couldn't get top rollers in without a big wrestling match. Later I realized we could have hung the top first then used the buttons on bottom rollers and put those in second. The door seems a bit noisy while gliding and it says to adjust set screws in top rollers to fix that, but nowhere does it explain what turning those screws does?? Does it raise and lower the door at that end? Does it increase friction?? I've played with turning the screws with the door hung but can't quite tell what it's doing. Lastly, it's time to caulk around the interior of the frame- the walls won't be a problem but with the door in place I have a good 6-7" area on the bottom that I can't get to- sliding the door left or right doesn't expose that overlap area. Trying to caulk under the door to get to the inside bottom edge of the frame with a nice bead won't be easy so I'm probably going to end up removing the door. I might as well have caulked the inside edge before putting the door on, let it cure, then put the door on just 1 time! For the price I thought the rollers would be higher quality- smoother, quieter and more heavy duty but this isn't a shower that's used daily so hopefully they will last.

      Hello, we recommend that you contact our Customer Support Team for better guidance on how to make adjustments and to ensure that your shower door was installed correctly. The Customer Support Team can be reached at 866-731-2244 or support@dreamline.com. Our hours of operation are 9am-6pm EST, Monday through Friday.
      To answer your question regarding the roller screws, they are supposed to be used if the door doesn't line up and seal nicely against the seal inside the wall jamb. These screws are for minor adjustments to even out the the way the door closes against the seal - to make it "tilt" one way or the other or to make it perfectly level - whichever is needed to make the seal consistent.

    Question...the height of my shower is 75". If I purchase a door with a height measurement of 72". Is it talking about about the height of the glass from bottom to top or is it talking about the distance between the bottom frame and the top of the "top" frame?? I just want to make sure that I get these measurements right. I would like the top frame to be flush with the top of the shower if that makes any sense. 🤔

    • @DreamLineShowers
      @DreamLineShowers  Рік тому

      Hello! Thank you for reaching out. The dimensions we provide are the full installed height of the unit. The 72" height measurement includes glass and hardware after installation. If your shower is 75", you would have 3" of wall above the shower.

    I went to install the shower doors and this is when I realized that even though they say that you can install the doors either right or left there's one thing they don't mention because the fixed door is always on the outside and the door on the inside you also have to move the shower head to the door side or it will leak.
