broken shower door $$$$
Better hope you don't experience a broken glass shower door. Just got off the phone with my dealer our 2017 Rockwood shower door shattered. The quote is $943.75 but wait they want to work with me so they will repair for just $885.34 If I give them a $500.00 deposit and oh by the way its a long lead item. And to get this kind of service it only took 6 phone calls and over a month just to get a quote. Now that's what I call customer service.

Don't know where you are but why don't you try going to a regular glass place and have them make you one. There is nothing special about a glass door for a shower.
We had our complete shower enclosure replaced for $1500 and that included hauling off the old gold one and installation of the new enclosure

If it's the little plastic L shaped piece with a hole down the long leg of the L anybody with a lathe could make you one in a few minutes...probably bandsaw to rough shape, turn the barrel and use one of many options to shape the foot.

Could you maybe rig some magnetic catches in the track, depending on the doors of course.

Yep sound like tempered glass I would check out some local area glass shops and they should be able to come out to service the shower door or just buy a shower curtain and rods

Isn't it under warranty.? The closet door glass in my Entegra shattered when it was 18 months old and was replaced under Jayco's warranty. No charge...

Shower curtain works for me too - unbreakable, doesn't rattle and costs a few dollars. Cut it in half or thirds and you have plenty of spares too.
