One hell of a job to install them in a small bathroom by myself. One door is probably 130 lbs and the other 110. Directions kind of suck, but between the video and a couple glances at them...I got ur done! Beautiful doors and great craftsmanship. Quality product. Thank you.
This is a good quality door, the rollers are really smooth and good quality. Two comments, keep in mind the support bar is about 4” lower then the door, for taller people (6’ tall) this could be an issue. Second, for the installation instructions, PLEASE make the text larger than 8pt type and provide more photos. The thing of having the bottom bracket mid way under the glass seemed wrong, as described in the text. Fortunately there is this video. 👍
What are the dimensions of the door guide clip? I’m building a narrow shower curb and I need to know what the minimum width of curb I can do. I wanted to build a curb that was only 4” wide. Can you measure that pice of hardware for me? Thank you so much. My door will be here in 10 days but I need to build the shower curb right now.
Instructions say to cut the rail...does NOT say from the door side only like in this video!!! What a major oversight! I cut equal amounts from each side of the rail, like any reasonable person would assume, when YOU leave out this key piece of information!

Love ours. The only thing missing is a way to keep the door closed tight against the tile. We close ours and is creeps back about 3/4" and water sprays out on the wall and baseboard. Is there a fix?
Did you ever fix this? Not sure if ours is a Vigo, but the mechanisms are almost identical and we have the same issue with the door creeping back a few inches at times. Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't. We checked the level and it seems level however I'm not sure what the tolerance is as one area is still within the level lines but not dead centre.

Can it open on both sides? I want to buy one online but I’m afraid it won’t open on the left side. I cannot get in on the right side bcz my toilet is blocking tht side
Our door is installed and it’s beautiful but the door will not stay fully opened. We push the door open and it then closes half way on its own. It does stay fully closed. Is this a feature? Is it by design? Or is it an installation error?

This is a bathtub door installation case. I cannot access the stud and need to install on the tile over the hallow drywall. The included anchors don't look strong enough and I'm trying to use a toggle bolts instead. Would it work? The video says that the rail should be screwed on the studs.

@@gitarman666 No useful response fr VIGO. I asked local plumber and he don't recommend to install at the dry wall only. It must be installed on the studs. Since this door is too heavy for the walls, the walls will gradually collapse. The only way to install is adding more studs on both sides after opening the walls

Hey guys the one thing confusing me is they give two sizes of drill bits for the rail to wall instation. one is with plastic anchors and the other is for attaching to studs. Im attaching to studs and was told by customer service, because instructions didnt say, that would use the larger drill bit size. that didnt make sense to me. So you would ust the smaller size bit to then insert an anchor plus the same screw? the logic isnt jiving. guess i may need to call again
Also 3/16 drill bit seems really small for the anchors to secure clips. I dont think the anchors will even go in a 3/16 hole much less then run a screw in it.
I believe my installers installed the middle piece that would sit on the tub's edge. The piece that holds the two doors. If this is true would this make water come out? Because it is. The installer ended up putting a piece of trim on the bottom of the moveable door to help with water getting under the door and over the black trim piece . And if that is the case, can this be fixed??? ugh.

How far down are the holes in the glass for the roller hardware on the VG6041CHMT6074R model? Can’t locate a schematic drawing anywhere and need to make sure it will work with my current wall material.

The instructions they give you and the instructions in this video really confuse me they tell you to make sure you have studs behind the wall for structural support and yet they give you wall anchors to screw into which one is it am I screwing into wood or am I screwing into the anchors doesn't make any sense
The instructions say to cut the support rail 3/4 inch shorter than the wall-wall distance, but if you do this it becomes impossible, once you have put one end of the rail into (let's say) the left bracket) to fit the other end into the right bracket. If the screws for the bracket were external, ie on a flange, you could fit the bracket to the rail end, slide the whole assembly into place, then screw. But it is a single central screw inside the bracket, so the brackets both have to be fitted first. According to basic geometry, you would need to cut off 1.5" (the depth of the bracket) from the rail to get the second end of it into place. Then the rail can be re-centred, but it will never run all the way to the inner end of the bracket. This will leave a structural weakness, which I don't want. How do you fix this?

Use epoxy, never drill holes through your water barrier. Or use a screw that is shallow enough to go through the tile and mortar but not the water proofing.

The top rail which (always) needs to be cut must be cut on the sliding door side, which isn't labeled - instead, they put a white sticker on one side which says to remove the plastic shim and on the other side you get a yellow sticker with a red warning triangle saying 'only cut on door side!'.

How much out of plum can the door side wall be and still work?
How much out of plum can the stationary panel wall be and still work?
Thank you
Panel side can not be out of plum. The door side can be 3/8" out of plum
@@VIGOIndustries thank you!
3/8" out of plum.
What? The fixed panel IS adjustable for out of plumb. The fixed panel holders are adjustable,right?
See 1:50 in the video, for adjustable fixed panel.
What's the significance of positioning the fixed door in the "middle" of the bottom door guide?
The fixed panel goes halfway in the guide and the other half has the threshold
This step had me stumped too, but I guess it makes sense later in installation.
Otherwise, the instructions make no sense. So why not explain briefly?
Should the bottom rollers be touching the rail? Mine are not, they are just shy of it.
Hi. all 4 rollers can adjust the height with a screw on the back of the roller. Try to adjust your 2 bottom rollers so they all touch the bar.

Directions state how long the screws are but not the diameter. In other words, what size bit should I use/buy for drilling thru tile?
The rollers, top and bottom, should be in full contact. The rollers are not concentric. It’s cammed in order to adjust for height.
Wonderful!!!!
