FAQs
What material are the shower door knobs made of?
The knobs are made from a durable chrome and zinc alloy.
How thick can the shower door glass be for these knobs to fit?
These knobs are designed to fit glass thicknesses ranging from 0mm to 10mm.
What is the screw diameter?
The screw diameter is 8mm.
How do I adjust the screw length?
The screw length is adjustable between 12mm and 20mm. You can typically adjust it by twisting the screw part itself to extend or retract it to fit your specific glass thickness.
Do I need any special tools to install these knobs?
Typically, no special tools are required. You may need a screwdriver or simply your hands to unscrew the old knob and screw in the new one.

Troubleshooting
Knob does not tighten securely.
Ensure the screw length is correctly adjusted for your glass thickness. If the glass is at the lower end of the thickness range (e.g., 2-3mm), ensure the screw isn't too long, or consider adding a rubber washer (not included) on the inside for a better grip.
Screw seems too short or too long.
The screw length is adjustable. Twist the screw part to extend or retract it to match your shower door's glass thickness precisely within the 12mm-20mm range.
Knob feels loose after installation.
Double-check that the screw is fully tightened against the knob's internal thread. Ensure the glass thickness is within the specified 0mm-10mm range.
Chrome finish appears dull.
Clean the knob with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals that can affect the finish.
