You were absolutely correct! The directions included were worthless in comparison to your video. Thank you! I NEEDED to see this video. It saved so much time and likely damage.
I am a master tile setter sir, and man made showers (old school way) is one of my specialties. I just wanted to compliment a beautiful job that I am sure is very well done. I agree with the importance of having the right type of bit, I keep the bit longer because I dip it in cold water often because the heat is what kills the bit, especially on porcelain tile, which is as hard, if not harder, than granite. Nothing is more aggravating than having to stop the glass installation because the tile chips or cracks, and that needs replacing, all because of wrong bit, lol. Great work and great video!
Love the sneaky editing at 16:03 where you have the fixed panel upside-down and then POOF it was right-side up. HAHAHAHA! Bet you thought you got away with that one!
Great vid guys.
Two years ago, your "Complete Drywall Installation Guide" helped me A) be decidedly better at installing and finishing drywall, and B) take less joint compound home with me in my ears, nose, eyes and throat. You have a knack for explaining what you are doing in an efficient, yet pleasant manner. I now look for you any time I am doing something for the first time, and am installing practically the same shower door today. Thanks for another great video.
Great to her. Cheers!
Great instruction. Love the heads up tips that aren't included in most vendor install literature. Keep up the good work!!
Beautiful, thank you. That is exactly the shower I want to install in my place. Love your stuff
Got me mentally prepped for my shower door install now...but that's probably 1-2 weeks away at the rate I'm going! Slow over here, but so far happy with all my results. Been taking my time and your videos have helped a ton!
great job!
wet the hole with water sponge while drilling. makes it faster to drill and prevents the drill bit from burning quick.
Great video, your hardwood floor video got me through my first installation and now having watched this one a few times, off I go. Thank you for your training and look forward to many more projects. I join the team today, hope you visit New England on your tour next year!!
Thanks for the great video, highly informative, well done and you make it look easy. I hope to tackle this exact same project soon and the tip with placing the glass inside the shower area before doing the other steps is a thoughtful step. Thanks again!
A few months ago, I did my basement shower renovation myself with pretty good results. I stumbled upon your channel after it was finished (unfortunately). On the subject of drilling, I used the diamond drill and sprayed water while drilling, and it still lasted about 10 holes. Porcelain is very tough material to drill.
Now I'm doing my main upstairs bathroom re-modelling (almost building it from scratch). Since the demolition phase, your instructions helped a lot! Easily the best instructions on RUclips, and I don't say this lightly, I've almost seen all of the good ones. Your skills sir are amazing! And one can tell right away by your attitude and confidence with which you talk and accomplish your tasks. The quality of your work is amazing too, waaaay above average. Your little tips and hacks is what truly differentiates you from all the other DIY channels.
I'm currently mudding and taping and it is a painful and boring phase. But your video series on mudding and taping is what should be taught at contractor courses!
Tiling is next for me, but I don't find it as difficult and I just enjoy it more. I have a lot more to do but I really am grateful to have your channel to go to for advice.
It would be nice to see a video on how to silicone: which types of silicones to use and where, which color (if any), which gun, how to cut the spout, how to apply, how to spread, how to clean... you know, all those nitty-gritty things one has to know to get good results.
Again, thank you for all the information you share with us and looking forward to seeing more.
Thanks for the comment Vladasonic. I appreciate you taking the time to share your experiences. We will definitely be doing a caulking and silicone video. I think it will be a compilation of many jobs and we will plan it out to cover all you need to know. Thanks again.
Terrific walkthrough of an installation. I’ve been contemplating installing a glass door on a tub. This helps me understand some of the challenges and preventative steps to avoid issues during and after installation.
Cheers, you can do it!
Thank you! I didn"t understand the instalation guide came in the package. Now I can do it after watching your video.
I love your work so much! I myself enjoy renovations etc very much as well, but still learning. I'm honestly so happy to have found your channel!
Glad to have you join our Renovation Nation. Cheers!
You are well on your way to 500K subscribers and a completely new frontier for your business. This is like if Mozart made a youtube channel to teach music. You sir are a master and your deserve all your success, including the success that is awaiting you here on RUclips and beyond.
I don't know if I would go that far, but I appreciate the boost. Just love doing what we are doing and trying to help folks out. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
Recently.. I have 2 units to service and both have the same system/issue. What u showed me on this video.. I can now make those adjustments. You the Man!! Thanks
very cool to be of help. Cheers!
So glad I found this video. One of my clients just asked me to do this. You give me the confidence to do it by myself, but I wished to have your helpful second set of hands!
Thanks for posting. I appreciate your tips and techniques!
Exactly what I needed, a complete step by step with helpful hints. Been waiting to get this done and this made it easy.
Glad to help Bruce! Cheers!
What makes me watching your videos is your Great great job and your personality probably coz you look like Greek guy first time when I sow your video I thought you are Greek 😂😂you have your way and that make me watching your videos!! I am from Greece and I watch your videos every day and learn lots!! Thanks
Mate from 🇬🇷
I do love me some windex. Cheers!
Just subscribed, I have been watching your video for a few weeks now. I am remodeling a bathroom and have a fair amount of knowledge on what to do. Your video have been incredibly helpful! From bulk heads to pex and today the shower door... Thank you, I will continue to use your videos as a reference guide!!
Thanks Jason for the kind words. Just remember You should have a couple other opinions as well just in case I have missed something in my explanation that someone else covers.
I would recommend to use silicone in ALL the screw holes in a shower. Yes, the water flows down and is mostly directed to the drain, however people clean their showers or have children and water goes in all the places you are not sealing. Please start using this practice. Thank you for the great videos!
Guys, this is very close to the doors we have in one of our showers. So thanks for going over the wheel installation and adjustment slowly. JLL
I needed to find a video on this and hoped you'd have one on this topic Jeff! And there it was, first in the search results :)
Same here...
Same here
Same here my god we are blessed
My dear Jeff, you have inspired to take on (most) of my tub-to-shower install. Thank you, and wish me luck
Very helpful, I installed this with my dad and we are very happy.
I had to install one of those shower doors today and thanks to you I was able to do it without the missing instructions from the box
I have used the spade type drill bit for a few showers already. I didn't use the hammer function on my drill. I find that it works much better and the bit last a lot longer.
I lost my hearing in one ear using an oscillating tool in an enclosed space such as this, be careful to use ear protection, biggest mistake I ever made.. now I have a hearing aid and cannot hear any high frequency sounds such as rain. Thanks for the video 👍
PPE people! If it looks stupid and it works, it's not stupid!
Thank you for the heads up. I thought it was just me having some ringing in the ears afterward. ill definitely invest in some ear protection.
Good Job, Good Camera assistant to show critical steps. Did not wasted to much time on the minor details. Great final video, Thanks.
You're my guy!!!
Been all over grewgle looking for tips to adjust the MAAX.... I've been a subscriber of yours for a while and well GUESS WHAT?! your video came up as a suggestion!
Thanks brother! From Okanagan Valley
After thought:
Liked saved and shared (with the boss of the house😉) so it won't get lost in the algorithm and for future reference when we need to do this again. She's always got my back when it comes to being diligent with future mishaps.
I been looking for several days for videos like this ones because i do not know anything about remodeling and im getting ready to remodel my 3 bathrooms from my house, this channel is the best, very informative and explanatory!! Thanks,, you got one more subscriber.
Glad to have you aboard Martin. Let us know if you have any questions while remodelling.We are here to help
Home RenoVision DIY yeah just 1 question, im thinking of making a shower, does they sell adjustible glass doors or do i need to make ir exsact dimensions?
Good thing he was here to help.
I don't think I've seen you do a project without painters tape. Love it haha
Thanks for this video, especially the "little" tips that would safe a lot of time :)
Awesome video! Thanks for making it. Gives me an idea on what to expect when I decide to install mine. Unfortunately I already put in the vanity and toilet..
Just be careful and you will be fine. Perhaps use a helper to spot you as you move the glass.
Excellent video Jeff, your explanations and presentation are top notch!
This is my favorite RUclips channel
Mine too but I am biased! Cheers!
my brain completely gets the concept now. I should have bought this kit off home depot also, i think you have to piece the kit together in the aisle there. the one i ordered i think is very similar. I did not realize until this man showed me how simple it can really be and how well it can look. thanks a lot for the video!
Cheers!
Amazing video and awesome job on tip with everyday speed bumps you would encounter.
Beautiful shower design , great job !
Thanks! I've got the redguard and tile yet to go in. After that I'll be hanging the Delta brand 5' door system. This video came at the perfect time.
Very cool. Good luck with your project.
Guess what! Encouraged by your video and a client's push, I installed my first glass shower door last night. I was glad to have the right diameter diamond sintered bit on hand, along with my strong and steady set of hands. All turned out well! Thanks so much for your videos, Jeff!
right on Mark. Cheers!
Love the videos, Iv probably seen all of them by now haha.
Can you make a video on outdoor DIY. Some ideas id like to see is staining a porch, building your own shed, installing a irrigation system.
Thanks, Installed same shower door, your right, just chuck the Instruction right in the garbage. More confusing than any I have used! Great work , love the channel
very helpful - you are a very good teacher - so much more clear than the lame instructions that came with my kit!
Thank you for the help, this was a very informative video that much improves the sparse instructions that came with the door.
nothing like 4 pics and a magnifying glass to try to read it eh!
Thank you so much! Now I know what to say when I get asked questions regarding shower doors! Like!!!! Keep it up man.
There is no slowing us down now Xavier, we are just getting started.
Great vid, only reccomendation that I have for this is when drilling the hole with a round diamond bit like shown DO NOT USE THE HAMMER FUNCTION (IF EQUIPPED) TO START THE HOLE, THIS WILL KEEP THE DRILL FROM WALKING. Get the hole started then use the hammer function if you prefer, 🍻
I did the same 3x5 shower with the pan..porcelan tiles and the Kerdi shower system..took a week to do (was not in a hurry) same doors bought Home Depot about 900$...heavy doors
had no helping hands !been 3 yrs and still no leaks THANX..
Of course not. proper building equals no problems. Cheers!
I installed a similar shower door a few years back, all by myself and came out great! 3 things are needed, follow directions, safety rules and be patient.
You're really cool and professional Jeff. Thank You
Very informative as usual! Very nice install! I wish you would have shown sealing the glass with the silicone.
I have a video idea, more of a how-to for home owners.
How to remove and clean up rock hard caulk around exterior vinyl windows and doors. It is super easy when the caulk still has some elasticity left, but almost impossible when it has been neglected and solid as a rock. And how-to properly caulk the vinyl windows after removal. I had this problem on my house and ended up having to remove the caulk with an oscillating saw. I know with your style of teaching and wealth of knowledge, it will help a tremendous amount of people.
Very true we need to do a how to silicone video. Thanks
You did great job i loved the way you did it you professional thanks for your great advices and video.
The fixed panel appears to be on the end of the shower with the shower head and the sliding panel on the inside of the shower. When the shower is in use won’t water be directed to the gap at the middle where the sliding panel bypasses the fixed panel on the inside? In this condition shouldn’t the sliding panel be on the outside to avoid this?
Good video..
Thanks for sharing! I installed my first shower door while watching this tutorial.
You’re the best. Thank you for yet another awesome how-to video.
Im going to start doing shower glass with my dad. Video was cool thanks
Have fun with that David. Cheers!
Very good pace. You show all the necessary steps. Good job.
Thanks! This is great. We have the same brand of shower door and were very confused about how to install it.
Awesome Kristin. We thought this would come in handy.
sweet, just what I needed to see because I've been planning my future shower. Keep up the good work!
Thanks John, Cheers!
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY were do get that to buy guys
That's just what I needed. 👍👍 You always have the right video I need
You really make it look easy! Going to give it a shot.
I am sure you will be fine Roberto, just be patient. Cheers!
Thank you! Your videos have kept me from making rookie mistakes. 😎👍
Another great video that was very informative in layman's terms. Thanks Jeff.
Than k you Larry, Glad you are enjoying our stuff my friend. Cheers!
Very helpful. Thanks for amazing tips
Awesome teaching! Thank you this is very helpful!
Anytime Jasmyn
Hi! Thanks for this great walkthrough. I have a similarly sized shower stall, and I'm thinking of installing an exhaust fan in the stall for better exhaust. The circuit would be ground fault protected, and the fans I've looked at all indicate they're able to be placed above a bath or shower.
Is that a good idea?
Great demonstration. I'm about to install the Delta brand. Similar layout with the sliding door on the track.
You are the best .thank you for the wonderful video .you helped me to install the doors by myself.
Thanks for the video! I'm about to start my remodel and this is very helpful!!
My opening is opposite the shower head and I'd like to overlap the doors with inner next to shower and outer moving door opposite shower head in order to get the extra water proofing of over lapping doors. I know there's a gasket to divert the water but can I overlap with the sliding door on the outside? I have no towel racks on the door. It's an ove Sydney.
Your Videos are fantastic. Thank you!
HI Jeff, I was wondering if you have a video where you show how to install a floor drain for a stall shower and the complete floor title work including the cement base leveled.
best video about shower glass installation
Until my next one goes up. Cheers!
Thank you so much! You showed me that I could never get this done! Especially at my age, skill level and eyesight! I will pay the pros to get this done right!!!
Very helpful and informative!! One question, 9:40 just before you started the drill, how do you decide how deep to go??
I'm pissed that I read the instructions 10x before deciding to see this video... Keep doing what you do!!! Great vid!!!!
Great job I've learned a lot from your installation.thank you for doing this.
Was watching from haïti.😷🙏
Nice video, i would however always recommend the models that have a stopper for the door sliding.
Thanks ! i'm installer a shower today and it will help ! I have the 3rd panel though let's see how it goes !
Glad this helps out! Good luck
I really enjoy your content ! Keep going with the good stuff ;)
Thanks Kevin, appreciate your comment
Your diy channel is the best for all my home projects. I’m about to install a shower door. I like the one in this video. Can you tell me the make and model?
Hello really love your channel your explanation and straight forward approach is fantastic. I'm interested to hear your views on a plastic pan used with tile walls. Here in New Zealand it seems tiled showers require tiled floors over top a waterproofed screed or a high density polystyrene tray tiled over with preformed fall.
The acrylic shower pan operates the same a s a tub. It has an integrated tile flange and will perform just a s well over time. It costs less still looks great with a tile wall and never cracks. I try to encourage my clients to use the pan and invest the money they save on other features like heated flooring or a vacation.
Hi Jeff, thanks for yet another incredible video! I have a glass on two sides install. I am seeing water at the rear, about 3-4” from the wall. I have no idea what may be causing it. Silicon caulking seems solid. Have you any idea/ suggestions? Thank you, Todd
Jeff, you ARE the BEST!
Really like your videos, always cool and professional.
Thanks Lei, Glad you liked it!
Very well done. Lot's of tips and lessons learned. Thank you.
Thanks William. Cheers!
Thank you, its great but simple, haw ever I don't know before that no idea , thank you
Great video, thanks.
Our pleasure Ryan.
Very good video, I would buy a good suction cup and a cheap cigar cutter works great on cutting those silicone tubes. Nice job.
Nice video presentation.. Two thumbs Up!
cheers1
Thanks for making this video. It’ll help me on my install.
Cheers, we love to help
Really good video. I have a business doing renovations and home repairs and I find your videos informative and knowledgeable. You speak well and I am able to follow everything you are showing. I see others post that you didn't show everything you did but sometimes you have to know a little about how to do some of the installations without being shown every step of the procedure. I subscribed to your channel to see what other videos you have. I discovered your channel when I was searching ways to install sheetrock. Now those are some great laid out instructional videos you made. My hats off to you and your team. Great work. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences. When I first started back in the 80's I didn't have informational videos to watch, I learned the hard way by just doing it and sometimes doing it over again. I feel you learned this way too. Thanks again.
The school of hard knocks my friend. Most industry guys are really slow to share any experience with you.
Thank you for sharing with the future generation of our repair technicians.
I just hope it is helpful , so they don't have to learn everything the hard way.
This video was very detailed. Thank you so much.
Cheers!
Really helpful..thumbs up sir
Best video I’ve seen so far.
Cheers!
Your instructions were great I follow it as you did.
That caulking gun is a boss...great job as usual.man Mr Nate sure look excited.lol... Would this method work for adding sliding door to a tub??
Hey Cudda, this door system comes in a tub door height. Yes it works great!
SDS Plus rotary hammer drill can be had new from Bosch for about $150 bucks. Cheap used on Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace will serve an owemoaner well.
