ABSTRACT:
An indexing hinge particularly useful for glass shower doors. A mounting member is mountable to the supporting structure around the opening to the shower. For example, this could be at the top and bottom of the opening to the shower. Another mounting member could clamp along the edge of the door. A pivot pin extends between the two mounting members and has one end rotatably journaled in one of the mounting members. A fixing mechanism in the other of the mounting members fixes the pivot pin relative to its respective member. An indexing member includes a detent along the pivot pin and a biased member that is urged against the pivot pin so that when the detent aligns with the biased member, in indexing position and indexing of the door is achieved.
