KOHLER Kohler Windward

Doors do not seal, very difficult install

Bought this after good experience with Kohler sliding shower doors in the past. Easy install...This door is a fail. The doors do not seal against the 0.5 inch flimsy splash guards and water splashes out with doors fully closed. Two stars based only on the quality of the heavy leaded glass doors and finish hardware, otherwise it would get zero. Engineered to be " minimal" and "frameless", but for the price they just eliminated install ease and overall quality for a higher margin. Extremely diffic...

Very nice

These shower doors are very nice and was one of a few that would fit my tub/shower enclosure as it has a cap with a light that connects to the tub/shower surround. The top/ cap has a light over lap & the height of these doors were perfect. There is about a 5” overlap when the doors are closed as standard sizes have changed over the last 20 years. The overlap was a minimal compromise since anything else would need to be special order from a specialty bath store at over $1600 plus weeks before del...

Bad Design-Do not recommend!

I installed these tub doors to replace an old set of the less expensive Sterling brand doors. I am so disappointed in these doors for three reasons: 1. There are only four screws that hold this thing in and the rest of the pieces are attached/glued by silicone caulk or by adhesive tape. The piece that holds the doors on the bottom track keeps coming unglued and will not stay in place, causing the doors to flop around. It just feels cheap and so far, has proved to be a bad design. 2. The doors co...

Design Flaw

I would recommend this bath door except for one small problem. After properly following the installation instructions, I found that both doors sit slightly above or just even with the lip of the lower track, even after selecting the hanger bracket holes that lower the glass doors as explained in the instructions. This problem causes shower water to splash outside of the tub and onto the floor. Apparently, the only way to rectify this problem is to lower the top track by about 1/4 - 5/16 of an in...

Short tub door

This door looks nice with the other stainless items in my bathroom. However, it is one of the shortest shower doors I've seen. It is 55 1/2" tall but if you subtract the top rail, there is only 53" to get into the shower. I would have preferred one 4" or 5" taller, but for the price it is okay. Installation was relatively easy. The most time-consuming part was trimming the bottom rail to fit the curves where the bottom of a fiberglass tub meets the walls. If your shower has square corners,...

Just Don't Do It

When we received our first set, we installed according to the instructions, step by step. Nowhere did it say to cut the wall jams. Well we ended up realizing that they packaged the 60inch door jams instead of the 56inch jams. Causes a huge problem because we already attacked the top track. Our doors were almost 5 inches shorter than the frame. Kohler did replace with the larger doors after admitting that the wrong jams were packaged. After installing the replacemt doors, water just went everywh...

Make sure to read all reviews

Purchased in the store without reading the reviews and was worried - crew was already at the house starting work so decided to read all of the reviews and follow the recommended modifications. The crew installed based on what was said here (not the manufacturer) and made the doors a bit lower, the setting has an option of 1,2,3 as well and it is now at a 2. So far working great and everyone is loving them. Easy flow of the doors, our beautiful tile can easily be seen. Giving it a 3-star rating ...

Do not buy

We are very disappointed in this shower door. The "frameless" look is replaced with cheap plastic side strips that don't stick to tile at all. We had to add clear caulking to keep them in place. The height of the shower door is deceiving because the metal is included in the height vs the height of the glass measurement. If you are over 5'5 you will have to duck to get in and out of shower. We are very skeptical about it keeping the water out from the top and the sides where the cheap plasti...

Wow ! These reviews are AWFUL

But my experience is entirely different. I installed the doors myself, first of all. And I dryfitted everything first. If the vertical sides of your shower are not plomb, the doors will not fit as they should. There will be a space between the edge of the glass door and the vertical wall. In addition, the horizontal piece at the bottom and the tracking mechanism for the doors should not be installed on the outer edge of the tub . Rather move the tracking mechanism closer to the inside edge ...

Very Disappointed

Purchased this back in Feb of 2016 and had it installed in March 2016 and wish I had never saw this door. The door closest to the shower and faucet end of the tub is so far up that water splashes under the door and all over the floor so I have a beach towel on the floor all the time to catch water. What really gets me is I even said to the salesman that the door seemed high and he assured me that the front guard would catch any water. We have called the Lowe’s installer back and he said he w...
