ABSTRACT:
A shower door system has a compression mounting system including a horizontal header and curb and upright jambs. The header and curb each include one or more rails mounted above and below the door via associated expansion assemblies. These assemblies have threaded shafts that engage one or more nuts mounted to the rails such that turning the shafts applies compressive forces against opposing end walls of a shower enclosure.
