Publication number: 20110072577Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatus relating to shower door enclosures are described. The systems include an elongated shower door support and a separate corresponding cover. The elongated shower door support may include one or more tracks for engaging a tread of a shower door roll wheel. After the shower doors are hung from the elongated shower door support, the cover may be readily placed over at least a portion of the elongated shower door support, thereby hiding that portion of the elongated shower door support from view. The elongated shower door support may include one or more connectors for physically connecting the cover to the elongated shower door support. The cover may be repeatedly connect to and disconnect from the connector of the elongated shower door support, thereby facilitating ease of installation of the shower door enclosure.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2009Publication date: March 31, 2011Applicant: SAPA Extrusions, INC.Inventor: Craig Luedke
