Q: Can Coastal Industries towel bars and handles support a bather?

Q: What can I use to clean the glass in my Coastal Industries shower door?

Q: When I see the term "lead times", does that mean when the Coastal Industries product will arrive to me or when it will be shipped?

A: Lead time is the time from when we receive your order until the time it is shipped. Actual shipment travel time varies with each carrier and also depends on the type of delivery you specify, such as next day air, two day air, or regular ground.

Q: What is the definition of a Centerline measurement?

A: Usually, this refers to dimensions measured in the center of the base of the unit.

The center of the aluminum frame is placed, or centered, on this line.
