    •  DETAILED DESCRIPTION
  • As required, detailed embodiments of the present invention are disclosed herein; however, it is to be understood that the disclosed embodiments are merely exemplary of the invention that may be embodied in various and alternative forms. The figures are not necessarily to scale; some features may be exaggerated or minimized to show details of particular components. Therefore, specific structural and functional details disclosed herein are not to be interpreted as limiting, but merely as a representative basis for teaching one skilled in the art to variously employ the present invention.
  • Conventional shower door assemblies are retailed preassembled. Conventional shower door assemblies typically include shower door frames, shower door glass panes, and shower hardware assemblies. The preassembled retail of these assemblies limits consumer options, while providing an overall unit that is relatively large and consequently difficult to transport from the point-of-sale to the point of installation. The preassembled unit may also be difficult to install.
  • Pre-assembling conventional shower door assemblies requires manufacturing of the distinct components; and subsequent assembly. Due to the varying materials of frames, glass panes, and hardware, the shower door assembly components may be manufactured at different manufacturing facilities. Pre-assembling may require shipping of the components to a common facility; assembling the components; and subsequent shipping to the point-of-sale retailer.
  • Manufacturing of preassembled shower door assemblies may involve difficulties in predicting consumer demand for various combinations of components. Likewise, availability of replacement components may be limited due to an unpredictability of the demand.
  • Referring now to FIG. 1, a retail shower door display system is illustrated according to an embodiment, and referenced generally by numeral 20. The display system 20 is provided by, for example, an array of six point-of-sale display units 22, which may be referred to as pods or modules. For depicted embodiment, three sequential modules 22, 24, 26 are provided on a ground or floor level; and three sequential modules 28, 30, 32 are provided upon the ground level modules 22, 24, 26. The display system 20 is sized to be displayed within a retail store aisle, such as a home improvement store. The display system 20 is utilized for both displaying and retailing shower door components.
  • Shower door assemblies are conventionally categorized by function or type. For example, shower door assemblies include pivoting shower door assemblies 34, sliding shower door assemblies 36, and sliding tub door assemblies 38. The display system 20 is separated into each of these three categories 34, 36, 38 with each ground level modules 22, 24, 26 dedicated to one of the categories 34, 36, 38 respectively.
  • Likewise, each of the second row modules 28, 30, 32 is also dedicated to one of the categories 34, 36, 38. Each second row module 28, 30, 32 is aligned with the corresponding module 22, 24, 26 on the ground level. The second row modules 28, 30, 32 can be utilized for displaying an example shower door assembly 34, 36, 38 for the corresponding category. The second row modules 28, 30, 32 are more visible from afar; and are more difficult to reach thereby providing a display function while retaining extra components.
  • Both rows of modules 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32 are utilized for retail of various components for each category 34, 36, 38. The components of each category 34, 36, 38 may function differently and may have different sizes as necessitated for the particular category 34, 36, 38.
  • The first decision a consumer of shower door assemblies may need to decide is which style or category 34, 36, 38 of shower door assembly is desired. Once the consumer selects a category 34, 36, 38, the consumer may approach the corresponding modules 22, 28 or 24, 30 or 26, 32.
  • If a consumer is purchasing pivoting shower door assemblies 34, the consumer approaches lower module 22 and upper module 28. Referring now to FIG. 2, the lower module 22 is depicted for pivoting shower door assemblies 34, which could be a stand-alone retail shower door display assembly 22. The module 22 includes indicia 40 generally upon the header 42 for explaining an overall method for selecting components for a pivoting shower door assembly 34. The module 22 may also include instructional indicia 44 upon a side column 46 for explaining a detailed method for selecting components for a pivoting shower door assembly 34.
  • The module 22 includes a point-of-sale display unit 48 which provides a structure for supporting the lower module 22, as well as the upper module 28. The point-of-display unit 48 is sized to be received within a retail store aisle; and may be sized the same as conventional shelving for preassembled doors for easy replacement.
  • The module 22 includes various components for the pivoting shower door assembly 34, each packaged separately. According to one embodiment, the module 22 includes an array of various shower door frames 50, which may be oriented within a first region 52 of the display unit 48. The module 22 includes an array of various shower door glass panes 54, which may be oriented within a second region 56 of the display unit 48 adjacent to the first region 52. An array of various shower hardware accessories 58 may be oriented within a third region 60 of the display unit 48 of the third module 26. Said another way, the shower door frames 50, the shower door glass panes 54 and the shower hardware accessories 58 are depicted as oriented sequentially in an order that a consumer would naturally select these components 50, 54, 58. Although the hardware accessories 58 are provided in a separate module 26, the invention contemplates that hardware accessories 58 could be provided in each module 22, 24, 26.
