Frameless Shower Door Bottom Seal with Drip Rail 1/4" Thick Glass 27.5" Long Sweep - Glass Door Seal Strip Stop Shower Leaks

Bottom seal arrived on time in a long box, so the seal was not folded or kinked. Before installation, I measured and trimmed it to length using a band saw, which made a clean cut. Out of curiosity, I tried to cut pieces off the scrap piece using scissors, a heavier duty shear, and a wood chisel and hammer. All left a jagged edge. I then used a small hand saw with fine teeth, similar to a hacksaw, and it cut easily leaving a clean edge. Installation was simple. The fit in both length and height was perfect. Very pleased with how tightly the seal gripped the 1/4" thick glass door without using any adhesive or caulk. No water leaked below the skirt of the seal during an extended test shower, nor did any water drip on the bathroom floor after the shower when the door was opened outward over the floor. Very impressive. I highly recommend the product and am glad I bought it.

The factory sweep on our Kohler Revel shower door eventually became very discolored and finally cracked. The official replacement part is 1318765-01 (for 1/4" glass) or 1318766-01 (for 5/8" glass) and lists for at least $150, if you can find it at all. That's ridiculous! It didn't even fit very well to begin with. However, it is a tricky replacement to find because the gap between the bottom of the glass and the threshold is about 1", but there is a dam almost 1/2" high on the outside of the threshold. The sweep must be wide enough to fill the 1" gap but flexible enough to go over the dam. Of all the options I looked at, this is the only one with the right dimensions and design, and it worked perfectly! It was easy to install, and I haven't seen a drop of water find its way out since. It was also packed in a nice long box so it wasn't kinked or bent at all. Installation is simple, but here's a tip: to cut it to size, fit it on the bottom of the door, facing BACKWARDS, with the angled flap outside the shower and the excess length to the outside, farthest from the door hinge. A loose fit will do; don't push it fully onto the glass. Mark and cut to length. Then, pull it off and install it in the correct orientation. Now your cut will be hidden against the hinge and the visible end at the bottom outside corner of the door will be the perfect factory end.

I am not very house skilled but this was easy for me to install on my glass shower door. I needed it to be shorter but between bending it and using scissors I easily got it to the size I needed. It seems to be good, firm quality but flexibile enough when the door opens and closes. Keeps the water in the shower so does whY it needs to do!

I purchased this seal as a replacement for an original seal and to replace a returned item whose bottom portion was too short, and would allow water to escape between the seal and the sill. This unit has a bottom portion that’s about an inch deep. The material is soft and flexible, so, though it touches the sill with a little bend in it, I expect wear shouldn’t be a problem for a considerable time. There is a deflector portion on the inside of the seal that kicks water away from the sill. The combination of the vertical seal and the deflector assures that water stays in the shower. The unit I returned didn’t have that feature. Installation was easy. I measured and marked the unit to precisely fit the door and cut it with heavy, sharp shears. I think “sharp” is important, so that the material isn’t crushed, which could result in damage to the channel that slides onto the door. Removing the old seal was a challenge. Glass shower doors are tempered and they can break explosively if too much asymmetric force is applied. To use as little force as possible, I applied a lubricant along the top of both sides of the old seal and let it sit for a few minutes. Then I used a flat screwdriver whose tip was wider than the channel, and a light mallet to drive the seal (which was metal) at the hinged end of the door downward (less torque on the door at the hinged side). The seal released easily and removal was completed with the door intact. I then applied just a little dry silicone lubricant to the inside of the new seal channel, pushed one end onto the glass and continued to push the channel up and along the door bottom. Toward the end, there was sufficient resistance that I gently tapped the unit with the mallet. And, done. Just a note to consider: measure the distance between the door bottom and the sill to ensure a water-tight seal.

This piece fits well on the bottom of the door. You cut to size. The problem is with the section that hangs over the inside (as opposed to the door swipe on the outside). The inside piece is not long enough and it leaves tiny puddles on the threshold of the shower pan. If it were longer it would bypass the threshold and drip onto the floor of the showerpan (as my old one did). When you open the door, it drips down onto the floor. I've started wiping down the threshold to make sure the water doesn't move to the outside. While the shower is on, it keeps the water in the shower. You just need to be careful when you step out.

It works by preventing water from escaping from the bottom of the shower door. Great quality, easy to install.

Didn’t fit the glass very well.. had to use 3m to make it stay. But it’s working. Long enough to reach the bottom unlike others!

The sweep part was too long for the gap between the door and frame on my shower. Just kept folding under when I tried to close the door.

I liked the very long splash stopper and it was easy to trim to the required height.

La pestaña que cubre el hueco entre el Cristal y el suelo tiene la dimensión apropiada para evitar el escurrimiento

Esta un poco corta y no proteje la salida de agua de la regadera, yo tenia otra un poco mas larga y no salia nada de la regadera, pero en general bien

Aunque ya sabía que le iba quedar 5 cm chico lo compre, y cumple su objetivo. Peroe gustaría que lo hicieran de un metro de largo y así poder cortarlo a la medida y no le falte. Y que la siguiente medida es de más uno 150cm creo y ya cuesta lo doble.

fits very tightly until my received complains that it is harder to close the shower door. but that's the point; it now forms a tight fit at the bottom so that water no longer leaks out from the bottom of the shower door. i.e. it works. just use a little more force to close the door.
