Good Fit
Is the 48"×76" Vera right for you?
The Vera DIY kit is the same value-tier framed bypass slider as our installed builds - two 1/4" tempered glass panels that ride past each other inside a complete aluminum surround (top rail, bottom threshold, and side frames), with dual towel bars standard. It's the budget pick in our sliding lineup: the full frame and threshold make Vera the most forgiving slider on out-of-square or older openings, and the lighter 1/4" glass is easy to lift for a two-person install. Same glass and hardware as the installed version - you just handle the install in 2-4 hours with a helper and save the install premium. Want less framing or a glass-thickness choice? Mona trades up to semi-frameless and offers both 1/4" and 3/8" glass.
Family bathroom remodels
You're outfitting an apartment renovation, rental turnover, or a tight-budget bathroom refresh.
Bathtub conversions
Your opening is older or out of square - the full frame and threshold absorb the variation.
Compact master baths
You would rather have lighter, easier-to-handle 1/4" glass than pay up for a frameless look.

Install Notes
DIY install — what to expect
Most homeowners install the Vera in 2-4 hours with a helper. As a fully framed bypass slider, Vera goes up framed-first: you build the aluminum surround, then drop the rollers and glass into the tracks - one of the more forgiving sliders to install because the frame squares the opening for you. The kit includes a printed step-by-step guide and a QR-code install video - and free phone/text/video support if anything looks off. Plan for two people: the trickiest step is lifting the panels onto the rollers.
- 1
Mount the bottom track and top rail
Set the bottom threshold track level on the curb, then mount the top header rail plumb above it using the included template.
- 2
Set the side jambs
Anchor the side frames into the walls so the full aluminum surround is square and tight to the opening.
- 3
Hang both bypass panels on the rollers
Lift each sliding panel onto its rollers in the top track and seat it into the bottom guide - this is the two-person step.
- 4
Adjust the glide
Fine-tune the rollers so both panels slide smoothly and the edges line up evenly with the frame.
- 5
Seal and cure
Run the vinyl edge seals and bottom sweep, silicone the frame-to-wall joints, and let it cure 24 hours before the first shower.

Compare to Mona
Vera vs. Mona
Vera is a fully framed bypass - top rail, bottom threshold, and side frames around 1/4 inch glass. Mona is semi-frameless with removable side jambs and offers both 1/4 inch and 3/8 inch glass. Vera is the simplest, lowest-price slider; Mona trades up to less framing and a glass-thickness choice.

Q&A
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Vera 48"×76" fit my shower opening?
The 48"×76" Vera kit is sized for openings within typical wall variation. This SKU fits wall openings from 46" to 48" (matches catalog-listed siblings in this SKU size). Measure your opening width at three heights (top, middle, bottom) and use the smallest value. A 1/4 inch variation top to bottom is common and the kit's adjustability covers it.
Which finish should I choose?
Chrome is the most universal and pairs with most fixtures. Brushed Nickel hides water spots and pairs with warm-tone bathrooms. Matte Black suits modern/industrial designs. Click any finish card above to see that specific variant's page with the full configurator.
What thickness glass does the Vera 48"×76" use?
This Vera kit uses 1/4" tempered clear glass — meets ANSI Z97.1 safety standards.
What if I need a different Vera size?
Vera ships in-stock sizes only. If you need a size outside the available range, check our Metro, Eclipse, Solo, or Prima models — those support advanced customization for any opening within their tolerance range.
What tools do I need to install the 48"×76" Vera?
4-foot level, tape measure, drill (carbide masonry bit for tile), Phillips and flathead screwdrivers, silicone caulk gun, painter's tape, rubber mallet, and a helper for the glass-setting step. All anchors, screws, and seals are in the kit.
How long does Vera 48"×76" take to ship and install?
In stock — ships within 2 business days from our U.S. warehouses. Free pickup at either location, $95 local delivery within 30 miles, or $300 flat nationwide shipping to the lower 48. Most kits arrive within 5 to 7 business days. DIY install takes 2 to 4 hours with a helper. Plan 24 hours of silicone cure time before the first shower.
How is the Vera 48"×76" kit packaged?
The kit ships in 2 boxes — one foam-padded crate for the glass panels (~85 lbs total for 48"×76") and one for hardware. The longer box is roughly 78 inches and fits through a standard door.
Do you ship to all 50 states?
Yes — standard ground shipping to all 48 contiguous states is $300 flat per enclosure. Free pickup also available at our U.S. warehouses, or $95 local delivery within 30 miles of either warehouse. Alaska and Hawaii are available with a freight surcharge; contact us for a quote.
Is glass type an upcharge?
Clear is the standard glass at the listed price. HD Low-Iron, Gray, Bronze, Rain, and Frosted glass each carry different upcharges depending on size. Selecting a glass type updates the price live at checkout.
How does DIY pricing compare to professional install?
DIY 48"×76" Vera saves roughly $400 to $700 vs professional install. You're trading 2 to 4 hours of your time for that savings. Pro install includes measurement, fabrication-to-fit, in-home installation, and a 3-year parts+labor warranty (vs 1-year DIY hardware-only).
What warranty comes with the Vera kit?
DIY-installed Vera kits include a 1-year warranty on glass, hardware, seals, and finish under normal use. Manufacturing defects are covered. Damage from improper install or wrong anchor type is not — call our DIY support line if you have questions before drilling.
Where can I find install help for the Vera 48"×76"?
Live phone, text, and video support 8am-5pm ET, 7 days a week. Step-by-step install video referenced on the printed instructions (QR code) and on our YouTube channel. Best to call before drilling permanent holes if anything is unclear.
