Notes:
This is a two person installation.
All marks made on tile, marble or fiberglass should be made lightly in
pencil so they can be removed after the installation is complete. An
optional method is to use masking tape on the walls and sill that can be
removed as the installation progresses.
1
Establish Centerlines – The centerlines of the unit must be estab-
lished on the shower sill and on the walls as well. Measure the width
of the shower sill and mark the centerline down the middle. Transfer the
centerline to the walls using a level. Mark Header Bar location at 3 1/8”
less than the unit height, on the centerline. Measure, and write down,
the distance between the two Wall Mount marks.
2
Bar Mount –
Drill the Wall Mount holes 5/16”. Insert the Wall An-
chors [A] fully into the holes. Place the Wall Mount Blocks [B] against
the wall with the counter bore to the middle of the enclosure. Using the
1/4 x 2” Truss head screws [C], attach the Wall Mount Block to the wall,
with the slot in a vertical position and the screw centered in the block.
3
Bar Length - Measure the width of the fixed glass panel [F]. Subtract
2 3/8” from that dimension. Measure from the center of the middle
hole in the bar to the fixed panel end of the bar and cut that end off
(The fixed panel end is the one with the second hole in it). Now
subtract 1 3/4” from the measurement taken in step 1, which is
the overall width of the shower opening at the top. Then take
that measure from the newly cut end of the bar to the uncut end
and cut that end off of the bar.
4
Level the Bar – Temporarily place the Wall Mount Sleeves [E] on
each end of the Header Bar. Align the Header Bar with the Wall
Mount Block, and slide the Wall Mount Sleeves over the Wall Mount
Blocks. Place a level on the center of the Header Bar and check for
level. If needed the Wall Mount Blocks can be raised, or lowered to
make the Header Bar level. Once leveled, remove the Header Bar from
the Wall Mount Blocks, and the Wall Mount Sleeves from the Header
Bar.
NOTE:
A slight downward tilt on the door side of the Header Bar
will help keep the door in the closed position while in use. A downward
tilt on the Fixed Panel side will cause the door to open, allowing water
leakage.
