Hi I took apart the bottom of the shower to clean it and forgot to pay attention to where the grey piece goes when reattaching. Any chance you might know? I also would love a replacement part for the metal piece. The shower handle says Work Right but I don

By grey piece, do you mean the sweep? If so, this usually slides into the drip rail I see installed at the bottom of your door. If it cannot slide back in, then that means it may have been pinned in at one time. I don't know if you will be able to get it back in if that's the case.

As for the metal piece, that appears to be part of the frame. We will not be able to replace that, unfortunately.

The metal piece on the floor is the drip rail. I think you are correct about the sweep. I am having a hard time getting it back in(I am pretty sure it slides into the very bottom of the shower. Would you have a replacement that would include a drip rail and sweep together that would work?
Not sure if the sweeps(on your replacement parts) will come down far enough to prevent water from getting on floor out side shower.

So the grey piece is the sweep and I think it goes in the very bottom of shower. I cannot get it back in. The silver piece on the floor is actually the drip rail and unscrewed it to clean it. That piece I can screw back on. I am wondering if there is one part I can order that would include the drip rail and the sweep together(and work on this door)?
I hope this makes sense. Thanks!

Sure, we have a few different drip rail shower sweeps. See the list I made on the right side of this page.
