Abstract
A bathroom fixture such as a sliding shower caddy of a plastic material mounts to sliding doors of a shower enclosure by rubber suction cups and is supported by rollers which rest on the upper extruded aluminum support or channel guide which holds up the sliding shower doors. The fixture slides along the extrusion as the shower door to which it is attached is opened and closed to thus remove the hanging fixture from the entrance opening to facilitate entry to and exit from the shower stall or enclosed tub.
