Shower Door Layout Guide
 
Use this page to identify the style of your unit. There are two primary terms, style and layout, used to describe a shower door configuration. The Style number, Style 1 through Style 6, refers to the number of panels of glass. For example Style 1 has only a door, where Style 2 has a door and one fixed panel. The layout letter refers to configuration of the panels. Find the picture below that best matches your unit. Click the image to reach the estimator work sheet.
