Why do my walls need to be plumb to install framed sliding shower doors?
Plumb walls mean your walls are straight and even and there are no outages in the wall. A nicely strait and plumb wall would ensure that a frame will lie completely flush and tight against the wall. If your walls are out of plumb, there may be a slight opening between the shower frame and the wall where water can leak out.
