Abstract
A shower door assembly with translating glass door panels riding in a lower track and supported by an upper center guide with a locking mechanism providing that one glass door is locked in place while the other glass door is allowed to translate. A double bottom slider system and mechanism for a sliding door assembly allow the doors to translate relative to each other. A locking system located on the top portion of the lower track made up of an inner door gear element attached to a torque loading device with a protruding element in contact with the inner door panel meshed with an outer door gear element with a protruding element in contact with the outer door panel. The shower door assembly operates in the setting of sliding all glass shower door systems to lock one door in place while the other door is free to translate.
