Abstract
A shower door sweep includes a bottom sweep element which defines an outer trough and an inner trough. The outer trough is sized to receive the bottom edge of a shower door. A drain channel element is inserted into the inner trough of the bottom sweep element and collects water droplets sliding down along the door wall and routes them to the hinge-end of the shower door even when the door is in the open position.
