I have a sterling shower door. The plastic seal on the bottom of the door is tearing due to the opening and closing of the door. It is just a thin piece of pliable plastic inserted into a groove on the bottom of the shower door.


Does anyone know where I could find a replacement piece? I have looked at the usual stores to no avail. Some have suggested a window and door center.

Thanks, Brad

Hey Brad: you may be able to find a replacment piece at one of the big boxes in the door threshold section. Remove and take yours with you so you can match the size and shape. Now, you may have to buy a whole door sweep and remove the rubber part to fit yours, but it is a trade off. Keep us posted.

BSparks294,

Check out a good Glass and Mirror store. They have been excellent resources for many items not found in a BB store.

Alternative is to call Sterling -
