Rated 1 out of 5 by from Good luck finding a Door that will work with this I see I am not alone in finding that the 36" pan has a 10" long tapered bumper on both sides. I purchased and installed 2 of these and now cannot find a compatible door. I talked to 4 people at HD. No help there.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Avoid Count me as another victim of this flawed design. Installed the pan and enclosures and then realized the raised lip on the base makes the plan incompatible with just about any door -- Delta or otherwise. Called Delta Hardware and they suggested I try to trim a water diverter on the base of one of their doors. Come on!

Rated 1 out of 5 by from no door fits Delta responds w their Lindell glass. The photo shows a different pan. The kit walls are 72", the glass is 65 "too short. Still does not contour to the pan. Delta would owe so much money they have choice but to double down.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Please do not but this product! I am so happy I haven’t installed it yet.. purchased it at Home Depot on the recommendation of the store employees, started our project and did a dry fit when my husband noticed the strange lip on the pan… started doing some more research and found countless reviews stating no door will fit.. Home Depot won’t take back the product since it’s outside their return window, delta won’t stand by their product and admit it’s a faulty design.. the only door that they have recommended is no longer available and nothing else fits .. please just save yourself the hassle and do not buy!!! Box should be labeled with a warning or product should be pulled from stores .. The delta rep I spoke to suggested I read the reviews next time… won’t be needing it, I simply won’t purchase delta again

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Terrible waste I bought this and had it installed, only to find out it has a useless funky lip on it. Then delta support says, "oh, we don't know of ANY door that will work with this pan". They should put a warning on this box of waste! Or better yet, take it off the market!

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Terrible if you want a shower door...WARNING! Bought this for my walk in shower, due to the partial lip on both sides no pivot or hinged shower door will work with it. Be warned if you want a shower door DO NOT GET THIS!

Emma, Thank you for your response. I looked at the shower door model you suggested and it isn't frameless, it has a bottom track. Am I locked in to using this type of door because of this shower base? As I said I am looking for a frameless door. Thanks, 

Asked by: Adam
Hi Adam, Thank you for your question about the Delta Faucet model B12135-3636-WH. Unfortunately, we don't currently carry 36" alcove shower doors that are fully frameless. The Lyndall collection models 2406427 and 2406349 are semi-frameless. I apologize for any inconvenience. Please reach out if you have any additional questions!

I purchased and installed this shower pan and would like to install a frameless shower door. Due to this threshold lip is is this not possible? Am I now forced to install a shower door with a bottom track?

I just installed the MODEL#: B12135-3636-WH and my Contractor noticed The weird “Lip” that runs across the front of the threshold but only part way. It doesn’t meet in the middle. Can a shower door still be installed, if so which model?

Asked by: Patrick
Hi Patrick, Thanks for your question regarding B12135-3636-WH! Looking into this, we have a Lyndall 36 in. x 64-3/4 in. Semi-Frameless Contemporary Pivot Shower Door that would fit your model. Our sister company, Liberty Hardware, would carry all of our other doors we manufacture. With the specific type of glass you would like, we would recommend visiting Liberty Hardware. I apologize again for any inconvenience this may cause. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or for further assistance. Best Regards, Emma Digital Communications Specialist
