Hello fellow geeks

Help needed please! Our shower door pivot hinges have snapped and I need to find replacement ones asap. Image:

Tricky thing is that these older models seem to be nowhere and I don't know the exact brand or model. The shower was installed well before we moved in. I have contacted all the major online stores for shower spare parts, and no luck. Posting here with the hope someone can shed some light on where I could source them.

Thanks in advance!

Have a good look over all the glass panels. With a bit of luck, you may find a trademark etched into the glass.

This site has a link to an Australian site that might be able to help with that pivot https://showerdoorparts.co.nz/which-shower-part/

We recently had to replace one of these and it took months to first identify and then source the right part. Eventually we got it through Placemakers, they were able to order it from a supplier.

My referral links: BigPipe | Mercury

To expand on my earlier reply, the site I linked shows almost the same image as the OP but say that they can't get it locally and rather than them getting it from Aus and increasing the cost you should call the Aus source directly. There could be other Aus sites with that pivot. Athena have similar pivots but the frame mount looks different. Maybe the fitting on the glass is a close match if that is the broken bit

You guys are amazing, thank you.

Cddt - do you recall what you identified your hinge as? Any leads at all are worth exploring! I will definitely go into Placemakers, thanks for the tip.

Thanks Bung - yes I tried that Aus supplier that ShowerDoorParts refer to, but they couldn't help unfortunately. That's a good idea to try other Aus sites, I will have another trawl. We have tried the closest Athena pivot as well, but as you say the frame mount didn't fit and that's broken on ours.

Thanks a million, appreciate the help
