Frameless shower glass height mistake or not?

A M
9 years ago
We ordered our shower slide bars before we ordered our frameless glass showers, we have 2 sets. The height of our shower glass is 76", but once the plumber installs the slide bars, the top of the bars will be a couple of inches higher than the shower glass. The shower head will be positioned below the top of the glass. Will it look like a major design flaw having the top of the slide bar higher than the shower glass?

    Amy, I bet you if you don't tell this to anyone, no one will ever notice or say anything.

    Don't worry about it.

      Should be fine if you mean the shower head being higher than the shower door.

      It really does not strike me as an issue at all. I think it will look just fine.

      While it's not ideal, it is not going to be a huge issue.

      I don't know what slide bars are either.

      Slide bars are the metal bars mounted vertically in a shower onto which a hand held shower attaches. The hand held can then be moved up or down based on one's height or removed and used off the bar.

      The shower head will not be above the glass, but the top of the slide bar will be by about 2-4 inches.

      This will not look like a mistake. Worry not!
