Abstract: A water barrier assembly for a shower door, including first and second sidewalls, a bottom wall joining the first and second sidewalls, interior surfaces of the bottom wall and the first and second sidewalls defining a channel adapted to receive a bottom portion of a shower door, a deflector extending outward from a top portion of the first sidewall, and a flexible blade extending from a bottom surface of the deflector and adjacent to an exterior surface of the first sidewall terminating with a distal end beyond a bottom surface of the bottom wall.
Abstract: A shower door assembly including at least one door panel having a bottom surface, a bottom frame member including a top portion and a bottom portion, the top portion including two grooves on a lower side thereof, the bottom portion including two sidewalls each having a top edge engaged in one of the two grooves, the door panel adjacent to and above the top portion of the bottom frame member, wherein the bottom surface of the at least one door panel is in a plane divergent to a plane of a bottom surface of the bottom frame member.
Abstract: A hinge for a door, such a glass shower door, including a back plate attachable to a surface, a hinge block extending from the back plate, a clamp rotatably coupled to the hinge block for receiving the glass shower door, and a hinge limiter attached to one of a front or a back exterior surface of the hinge block. The hinge limiter may have a length equal to or less than a length of the hinge block and a width less than a width of the hinge block. The clamp may include a stop plate on an interior surface, adjacent to a distal end of the hinge block, adapted to contact the hinge limiter upon rotation of the clamp.
Abstract: An assembly for coupling a sliding door to a track is disclosed generally comprising a support member, which has a channel in which an upper portion of the panel is disposed, that is connected to an engagement device, such as a wheel, adapted to engage the track. The engagement device is fastened to the support member at a point adjacent to the upper portion of panel in order to minimize the vertical space required. In some embodiments, the panel has a gap in the upper portion, and the engagement device is fastened to the support member via a fastener that extends through the support member and the gap in the panel. In certain embodiments, the support member is a shoe with first and second sidewalls. In some of these embodiments, the fastener extends through the engagement device and into the first sidewall adjacent the panel.
