ABSTRACT:
A door system includes a sill with a ledge extending across the bottom of an opening to a bathing enclosure and with a raised lip along an exterior side of the ledge. A pair of parallel tracks are above the opening with a first door suspended from and freely slidable along the first track above the ledge. A second door and a third door are suspended from and slidable along the second track being freely suspended above the ledge. A pair of door guides are attached to the first door and engage the other doors to prevent the doors from swinging into each other. Similar door guides are attached to the second and third doors and interlock with one of the door guides on the first door to prevent the doors from sliding entirely past each other. A stop member is attached to the sill and retains the doors above the ledge between the stop member and the raised lip. Detent blocks also are disclosed for holding the doors in a closed state.
