At Wolverine Glass, we want to help keep your shower door looking as good and performing as well as the day it was first installed. Our technicians are ready to support you with adjustments, repairs, and any other maintenance needs for your shower door. In this article, we'll discuss how to fix a loose shower door handle.
It's important to fix a loose shower door handle early so that it doesn’t lead to damage that’s much harder to fix. A loose handle can wear down, making it unfixable and needing to be replaced completely. The handle could also move around, causing scratches on your glass.
You will need a couple of tools to fix a shower door handle…
1. A Philips head screwdriver
2. An Allen key
Note: You’ll want to be careful that you don't scratch your glass with your Allen key, so you want to use a little bit of patience, and you’ll also want to be careful that you don't strip the inside of that set screw either. For the same reason, we also recommend using hand tools instead of power tools.
The most likely cause for a loose door handle is that one of the two sets of screws has become loose. So where are those two sets of screws?
There’s a set of screws that holds a post on both ends of the handle, and then another set of screws that holds one of the handles onto that post.
