Sliding shower doors are a great improvement over a curtain, but what if you need to remove them for cleaning?

Steps

  1. Look at the bottom track. It is an extruded aluminum rail. The edge that is inside of the shower is probably shorter than the outside edge of the track.
  2. Look at the top track. The top of the door should have wheels that ride against the top shower rail.
  3. Stand inside the shower.
  4. Grasp the near door with both hands and lift door. The bottom of the door will lift high enough to clear the inside edge of the track.
  5. Lean bottom of door towards you as top of door remains in top track.
  6. Lower door to clear top track. You have removed the door.
