4. Operation
The DreamLine Unidoor Plus features a hinged door mechanism for smooth and reliable opening and closing. The solid brass self-closing hinges are designed for durability and ease of use. The door is reversible, allowing for installation with either a left or right-hand opening to suit your bathroom layout.
5. Maintenance
The glass panels of the Unidoor Plus are treated with DreamLine ClearMax, a proprietary factory-applied coating. This coating provides a protective layer that causes water to bead and easily roll off, significantly reducing water spots and mineral buildup. Regular cleaning with a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleaner is recommended to maintain the glass clarity and hardware finish. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools that could damage the ClearMax coating or the hardware.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your DreamLine Unidoor Plus shower door, consider the following:
- Door not closing properly: Check if the hinges are securely fastened and properly aligned. The self-closing mechanism relies on correct hinge installation.
- Water leakage: Ensure all seals and gaskets are correctly installed and free from damage. Verify that the U-channel is properly sealed to the wall.
- Glass spots/streaks: While ClearMax coating reduces buildup, regular cleaning is still necessary. Use recommended cleaning agents and methods.
For persistent issues or complex problems, professional assistance is recommended. Refer to the warranty information for support contacts.
