Measure and Cut the Bottom Track
CAUTION: Risk of personal injury.
Always wear safety glasses when cutting
materials.
IMPORTANT!
If your shower has a curve in the corners where they meet the
sidewalls, be sure to measure from wall to wall above the curves. Failure to measure
above the curve or angle could result in the bottom track being cut too short.
Trim the edges off the insert in the last 2
″
(5.1 cm) of one end of the insert.
Slide the trimmed end of the insert into the groove in the bottom track.
Bend the trimmed end of the insert so the end can be grasped and pull the insert
until it runs the length of the bottom track.
Make sure the insert is flush with far end of the bottom track and trim off the
excess insert
Measure from wall to wall at the flattest part of the shower ledge (dimension
″
D
″
).
Mark dimension
″
D
″
on the bottom track.
IMPORTANT!
For best results, use a 32-teeth per inch hacksaw blade and a miter
box to cut the bottom track.
Subtract 1-1/8
″
(2.9 cm) from dimension
″
D
″
and simultaneously cut the bottom
track and insert to this dimension.
File the rough edges smooth where the bottom track was cut, taking care not to
mar the finished surface.
NOTE:
If there are curves where the sidewalls meet the threshold, use a file to
contour the bottom track edges to match the curves.
