Sterling Plumbing 1500D-31S VISTA PIVOT SHOWER DOOR - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

I have the same problem. I'm doing research today, I'll keep you posted. unless you already figured out where to get the seal, please let me know.

Hi I think you need doorsweep which you can find at: CRL lawrence co.They have a wide range of products to fix your problem. I hope that helps.

Unscrew those screws and the handle will either pull off or unscrew.

Usually the bottom of most framed doors has a chanel which contain door sweep or hollow gasket,all you have to do is pull it and slide the new one in the same place. Please note that some times the end of the chanel is crimped to prevent the gasket to move in and out of the track. I hope this will help.

Sterling like many others made many different types of faucets and stems. To service any of them you need to remove the handle. Then depending on the type of stem you can make your repairs. Most common Sterling stems were brass. Most common cause of slipping is stripped broach on stem and or handle. The broach is the star shaped part of the stem that the handle slides on. If it is stripped replacing the stem and or handle should do the trick. As for the tighteness of the stem, this could be the packing nut on top being to tight or stem may be damaged. Hope this helps. Please share a vote if it does.

If your water heater is real old, it will slough off the lining and it will clog the hot supply. Try some spray lubricant to see if it will loosen the screw, otherwise you will have to cut off the handle to access the valve. You can replace the stem and the handle. Use a flashlight after you have turned the water off and removed the stem to see if you can find the clog. I use a dental pic to remove the debris when I come across this problem in the field. You can try flushing the system as well but that takes 2 people, one turning the water on and off and the other making sure you don't flood the bathroom. Good luck!

It sounds like you need the sweep or seal that keeps water in the enclosure.

If you used the correct drill size, the anchors should fit in the hole by softly taping them in with a hammer. Make sure the anchors are inserted before you attach anything to them. When the screw is used with them, they will expand and hold in place.

Find the pressure regulator and adjust accordingly. It can be found between the street pressure gauge and the hom's pressure gauge. It is usually adjusts by turning a screw.

If you are using the cone shaped anchors and you're sure you have the right size hole drilled then just use a small hammer to tap them into place so that small flange on the front rim of the anchor is back tight against the shower wall.When you are tightening screws in be careful to not overtighten or you will cause anchors to slip . Hope this helps. Thank you

I suggest that you take the old washers with you to the store, there are miniture differences between and close does not cut it. With the old ones with you, you can be sure.

Please clarify - you said it's a pivoting door but also said it doesn't slide smoothly - can't really do both at the same time. If it's a typical bypass sliding door then you should be able to make an adjustment to the hanging brackets on the offending door to raise it up off the track. If all else fails the header track can be raised thereby making the doors hang higher and off the track attached to the tub surround.

The part # you supplied is for a shower door and has no bearing to your question. There is no relationship. However, I can say there is no adjustment for any two handle shower stem or even single handle stem. Very rarely will just replacing an "O" ring stop a drip unless it it from through the stem itself and comes out under the handle. When in doubt replace the whole stem...shortcuts will only exasperate the problem. There are no shortcuts in plumbing.

Try looking at shower door suppliers, and glass companies that make shower doors.

Some times it's possible to tweak a roller track (barely bend) at the proper spot to prevent the roller from back tracking past that spot.

check out "askaplumber.com". I think there are individual adjusters for those valves. also suggest contacting customer service for the brand you installed---my experience with the major brands is that they are usually quite helpful

install new diverter stem, or rebuild old one
