I ordered Basco Shower Doors, frameless, from Tile-Redi in March 2019 for a bathroom/shower I was building in my house. By June 18, 2019 I had the shower complete and the frame installed for the doors. I removed the door from the box and proceeded to lift the door into the track. The doors did not require any prep to be done as the hanger brackets are factory installed. While holding the door it exploded in my hands sending glass shards everywhere. The door literally exploded into thousands of pieces, scratching the surrounding metal frame. I received cuts on my wrists and hands but did not require medical attention. The door had not been dropped or otherwise damaged in any way. I immediately called Tile-Redi and provided information but they could not put me in touch with someone immediately to rectify the problem, so I called Basco Shower Doors directly. They told me the doors were warranted and agreed to ship out two doors as I was concerned that neither of the two doors they originally shipped me had the proper temper done to the glass. On July 1, 2019 I received the new shipment of doors, and gingerly installed the first door. The second door, again lifting it into the frame, exploded in my hands, causing small cuts and embedded shards of glass in my arm. I required first aid but not medical attention. This door reacted identically as the first shipment. I contacted Basco Shower Doors again and they agreed to send me another set of doors. At this point I have two of their shower doors installed but am extremely wary of their safety and quality. Neither door was hit, twisted or jammed, each exploded with a great deal of energy with just minor handling, lifting them gently into the frame. There is something very wrong with these doors, either the temper is not correct or the hangers, installed at the factory, are creating pressure or damage to the glass causing them to be bombs waiting to go off. I will not purchase Basco Doors again and if

I was taking a shower in the master bathroom of the condominium. Suddenly and without impact, the glass door of the shower exploded, sending pieces of glass all over the floor, the shower, and my body. The explosion of glass was in both inward and outward directions relative to the showering area. A large door (edge) seal from the shower door held large chunks of glass that fell onto my hand in a chainsaw like motion. Other portions of exploding glass landed in the toilet bowl, sink, and counter of the bathroom. I was immediately in pain and suffered cuts over my body. My left hand squirted blood onto the wall and pools of blood formed in the shower from multiple cuts, deep gouges, and needlelike wounds.

My 8 year old son was finished taking his shower and went to slide open our glass framed double shower doors to get out when the door suddenly imploded. The noise and our son screaming was heard by his father and I in the kitchen and we ran to investigate. Our son stood soaking wet covered head to toe in small bits of glass and surrounding him were piles of glass chunks that were trapping him in the shower. The force of the implosion caused the bathroom floor also to be coated in glass with pieces landing as far as into the hallway. After my husband carefully picked our son up and removed him to the other room I was able to gently remove the glass bits that were covering him and wash the rest off of him in the other bath. He sustained two minor cuts on his foot that I applied antibiotic ointment to. However, he was psychologically traumatized by the incident and was weeping and shaking uncontrollablly from fear even hours later when he thought about it. He swears now he will never use that shower again or any glass shower. My husband vows no more glass showers. The cleanup was ridiculous. It took hours for us with two vacuums to get all the glass bits and pieces. Many items in the shower had to be thrown away because of the film of glass covering them. I too ended up with a small cut on my thumb from the cleanup. The one door of the two that didn't break had the words Unitex tempered ANSIZ97.1-1984 16CFR 1201 11 SGCC-2575 1/4 U there were no other identifying marks and the doors were in the house when we moved in 6 years ago and used regularly in a gentle manner. I don't know how to contact the manufacturer since it's looks like they are located in china and I can't find a website. I think these type of glass shower doors need to have a safety film that if broken keeps it from scattering glass or a warning label affixed permanently that this can happen. We had no idea this could happen. Surprisingly his injuries were minor because my son jumped bac
