To help with the side casing installation, use a level and draw a plumb line
from the inside of the pan threshold up to the top of the shower. Do this on
both sides. This line will be where the side casings and the wall Panels meet,
this will give you a visual reference point when dry-fitting your wall panels.
Note: Install Plug for channel threshold(dia.8A)
Apply 100% silicone, using a circular pattern to the cement board along the
plumb line, approximately 4" wide, to the edge of the shower pan.
(dia. 10)
Place the first side casing into position making sure to align with the vertical
plumb line previously drawn on the cement board. Apply pressure to the
side casing to bond it to the cement board. The side casing will be flush with
the inside of the shower pan threshold and have a small gap where the pan
threshold slopes.
(Dia. 11)
You can shim the gap if needed. Make sure to also
align the channels.
Place the remaining channeled side casings into position, 3 to each side.
Leaving the caps off until after you install the glass. Use a level and the
plumb line previously drawn on the cement board to align the side casings
vertically.
