If the valving has not been installed, install it now following the valve manufacturer’s instructions.
Position the shower wall panels upright on a clean, flat surface with the flanges aligned as shown.
Ensure the shower wall panels are both resting flat on the floor.
Apply a

″
(6 mm) bead of clear mildew-resistant 100% silicone sealant on one of the
mating surfaces between the shower wall panels.
Reposition the walls together and assemble the bolt, washers, and nut at each location.
Tighten the fasteners using a 1/4
″
wrench and a ratchet with a 11/32
