Thank you for purchasing this Portofino shower enclosure. Please study these instructions carefully before assembly
and installation and check all supplied parts immediately upon receipt.
This guide is for a Portofino enclosure with Underframe and with Surface Wall Profiles.
It provides instructions for an enclosure with a 45 degree Wall Support Bar. If you have chosen to use Ceiling Support
Brackets in place of a support bar, please ignore the relevant sections of this guide and follow the instructions provided
with your ceiling brackets.
Similarly, if you have chosen a handle of towel rail other than those shown in this guide, please follow the specific
instructions provided with your handle or rail.
Pre Installation Checks
Prior to undertaking installation, check the accuracy of the following against specifications for the particular installation
location:
- Verticality of walls: Some lean-in or lean-out of the wall relative to the floor can be accommodated (up to 18 mm if 24
mm wall profile is used).
- Floor flatness and levelness (or tray rim flatness and levelness if a shower tray is used). The floor or tray rim must
be substantially flat and any minor hollows beneath the underframe must be solidly packed to prevent deflection of the
underframe under the weight of the glass as such deflection may over stress the glass.
General Instructions
Some steps in the installation procedure require two people.
Before beginning, please familiarise yourself with the glass handling guide attached to the glass panels. Do not place
glass panels on hard surfaces - place cushioning material underneath them to prevent the glass from shattering.
If anti-calcium glass has been specified, the treated side of the glass will be indicated and should always face inwards
towards the inside (wet side) of the shower area. Where appropriate, the top end of glass panels will also be indicated.
Unwrap all parts carefully to avoid damaging the plated surfaces.
Parts Supplied
The following parts are supplied (with the exception of any bespoke options that you may have selected, as explained
above). Please check them and contact the Majestic Shower Company in the event of missing or damaged parts.
