Answer This Question

A:  Hello and thank you for your inquiry. Please note that before ordering your GW shower enclosure it is essential your shower is tiled as your measurements will change once tiling and grout are in place. GW offers a unique modular system that is as close to a custom fit shower as possible without the high prices, this is why it is essential to only order once tiling is complete. If your enclosure is tiled and your minimum tile to tile width measurement is 57” then you would order the 57.25" model. All GW dual panel systems have an out of plumb allowance of 0.4” so this model has an absolute minimum width requirement of 57” with an allowance up to 57.4”. The rule when ordering a GW dual panel system is to not order anything above your minimum tile to tile width opening. If you order anything above your minimum width measurement the shower will not fit. Please feel free to contact our team directly at: inquiries@glasswarehouse.us prior to ordering and our team will be happy to provide you with the correct model to order to suit your exact measurements. Thank you!

    Answer This Question

    A:  Hello and thank you for your inquiry. GW offers a unique modular system making out showers as close to purchase a custom-made shower, without the higher cost. The sizes of the door and stationary panels will vary depending on what stock is available the time of receiving your order. Typically for the WH-57" size model we would send a door (walk through) between 25" - 27" with a fixed or hinged panel (stationary) to suit between 29.5" to 31.5". The remaining 1/2" allocated to hardware. Our door sizes range from 24" to 30", in 1/4” increments. If you would like a specific size door or stationary panel, before placing your order, please contact our team directly at: inquiries@glasswarehouse.us where they will provide instructions on how to do so. With any further questions you may have, please contact us directly as we often do not receive these questions for several days after they are posted online. Thank you!

        Q:Can the door open inwards towards the inside of the shower? And can we keep it to where it only opens inwards?
        by|Jan 17, 2024
        1 Answer
        Answer This Question

        A:  Hello and thank you for your inquiry. The hinges do allow for the door to swing inwards and outwards, but with our Illume/WH model we do provide a sweep for between the stationary panel and door, which allows for the door to only swing towards you. The sweep for in between the door and stationary panel is an optional feature and is not necessary for installation.

            Q:Once tile is up will be a space of 57.6 so this should be perfext?
            by|Apr 16, 2022
            1 Answer
            Answer This Question

            A:  Hello - Thank you for your inquiry. With an absolute minimum measurement of 57.6 you will want to order an enclosure to fit a 57 1/2" wide space. A 57" wide enclosure will technically fit, but you may end up with an odd gap between the door and fixed panel once installed. If you have any further inquiries, you are welcome to contact us directly as well at inquiries@glasswarehouse.us - Thank you

              Answer This Question

              A:  This 57" model only suits an opening from 57" - 57.5". We sell this type of enclosure in 1/4" width increments so have a model to suit your opening. If you have measured your opening in 3 places, top of glass height 78", middle 39" and bottom of opening and your minimum measurement is 58.25" the model is GW-WH-58.25-MB. If you have any further questions or need help ordering the correct model for your opening you can email GW direct at inquiries@glasswarehouse.us for a faster response time, we often do not receive these questions for several days after they are posted online.
