Abstract

A bathroom accessory attaches to the shower door frame assembly by means of a horizontal slot incorporated into the frame. The slot is preferably on the header and has a generally arcuate cross-section from front to back to accept a similarly dimensioned arcuate flange on the bathroom accessory. Rotation of the bathroom accessory about an axis normal to its direction of insertion engages the slot and flange. The accessory may be positioned horizontally along the shower stall by lifting it slightly and sliding the flange within the slot. The header piece also carries a track to guide the shower door and means to keep the accessory frame from interfering with door movement.
