# Bulb Seals, Fin Seals & Edge Wipes for Shower Doors | IDEAL Shower Doors URL: https://idealshowerdoors.com/store/c/bulb-fin Description: Clear bulb seals, double-fin seals and T edge wipes for the hinge, latch or wall side of glass shower doors. Clip-on and tape-on, sized by the gap they close. Seller: IDEAL Shower Doors, Danvers, MA (https://idealshowerdoors.com/store/) --- 14 products # Bulb Seals, Fin Seals & Edge Wipes for Shower Doors Bulb and fin seals close the vertical gap on the hinge side, the latch side, or where a door meets a wall. A hollow bulb squeezes shut as the door closes; fins and edge wipes bend to fill the gap. Tape-on versions are chosen by the gap they close, not the [glass thickness](https://idealshowerdoors.com/store/measure), because they mount to the glass edge or wall with [clear VHB tape](https://idealshowerdoors.com/store/p/cat0401436). Clip-on bulb seals pressure fit onto glass of a specific thickness. ## How to choose - Measure the gap with the door closed, then pick the seal rated for that gap (for example 1/8"–5/32", 5/32"–7/32", or 3/16"–3/8"). - Doors that swing both ways: bulb seals give in either direction. - Pre-taped versions are peel-and-stick; the others need [clear VHB mounting tape](https://idealshowerdoors.com/store/p/cat0401436). - Clip-on bulb seals (no tape) are sized to 5/16", 3/8" or 1/2" glass.

The bulb compresses as the door closes. Choose it by gap: [SDTJ](https://idealshowerdoors.com/store/p/sdtj) for 1/8"–5/32", [SDTB](https://idealshowerdoors.com/store/p/sdtb) for 5/32"–7/32", [SDLB](https://idealshowerdoors.com/store/p/sdlb) for 3/16"–3/8". **Do bulb seals work on doors that swing in and out?** Yes. The bulb gives in both directions, so it works on inswing and outswing doors. **What tape do I use to install a shower door bulb seal?** Use [clear double-sided VHB tape](https://idealshowerdoors.com/store/p/cat0401436) (we sell a 1/4" x 36' roll), or buy the pre-taped version of the seal.
