Fit 25" inch shower door in 27 5/8 opening
Title pretty much says it all. I have a 25" shoer door (it says it fits 24 1/2 to 25 1/2 openings), but the cabin I am looking to get has 27 5/8 opening.
Any way I can fit it without risk of leakage? Any extension panels? I need about an inch on each side.
This is the shower:

sorry if I wasn't clear.
I already have a shower door that can fit 25+- 1/2 opening
I am lookin to buy a one-piece shower. The one that I like and fits the budget is this one:
Biarritz Alcove shower - MAAX
However, my door would only fit the 32 " x 33 " x 74 " model, which I find too small. So I want to buy the Biarritz 85 - 100973 model, that is 36 " x 35 " x 76". But according to the thecnical document, the door space for that one-piece shower is 27 5/8.

So the question is if I can fit the smaller door in the bigger opening, or I should try to sell my door and buy a bigger door?
thanks

You purchase the shower first and install and then you purchase a door designed to fit the shower, not vice-versa. Never heard of buying a random door and going from there.
I'm sure the door was a great deal and that is why you bought it, but how good of a deal is it really when you are unable to use it. Most "off the shelf" shower doors have adjustable hinge locations and a fixed panel so that you can install in a range of openings. Your door looks like it was designed for one specific shower unit that you don't have.
