HOW TO SILICONE THE CORNER

clearAn Urban myth, of just a few years ago is that heavy glass shower doors are way to difficult for the non-professional to install. But, when we hired a group of lawyers and doctors, they actually made a mess. It turns out that the installation is actually simple. There are just a few tricks and warnings you need to know. First time installers often do a better job than jaded, bored, dissillusioned, slightly enebriated, and nearly homeless glaziers. (Just speaking for myself)
clear If you have a recollection of drilling holes in tile and if you have used a level before, then you have an excellant chance of success, without calling a "professional". Many times your contractor will do this for you.
clear Wilson Glass doesn't just sell the parts and then abandon the customer. We are happy to answer questions. Aric will even give you his cell phone number when you order a complete system. My doctor's cell phone is always turned off and blocked.
clearIf we're installing this for you, just remember, our Glaziers are on the level; the others guys just can't measure up.

NEO ANGLE SHOWERS

MEASURING NEO ANGLE OPENING - Neo- Angles are even forgiving in the measureing department.
INSTALLING NEO ANGLE SHOWER
NEO ANGLE SHOWERS WITH HEADERS
NEO ANGLE SHOWERS WITH FULL HEIGHT SIDE PANELS
NEO'S WITH NO HEADER: Previously thought impossible. Look in the GALLERY for Headerless Neo.

clear I remember thinking Neo Angle Showers were extremely difficult. I was about to call a doctor or lawyer to help me out. But now, it seems as though Neo's are just about the easiest shower to install. You only need to drill four holes in the tile. Care must be taken with the vinyl seals as the shower head is always pointed right at the door.
clear If the angles are not at 135° (aka 45°), we can accomodate that too. A new product is the 135° Adjustable Glass to Glass hinge. The newest machinery will cut beveled edges on a custom angle.

Thanks for your help."
