Angled, Straight & Universal Shower Rail Fitting Instructions
If installing the universal shower rail, please choose from one of the following rail configurations.
The universal shower rail is joined together using the connectors supplied. Once joined together
tighten the screws on the top of the connector to create a secure fixing - see Fig.3
1. Slide the gliders and hooks onto the bottom half of the rail - see Fig.1. Position the end stop
at the end of the rail and slide the wall brackets onto the end of the rail - see Fig.2.
2. Place the rail in the desired location allowing for adequate curtain overlap into the bath or
shower tray, then make a mark on the wall at the top of each wall bracket. Using a spirit level,
ensure the shower rail is level.
3. Remove the wall brackets from the rail and place them into the locations previously marked
on the wall. Mark the mounting screw holes onto the wall through the corresponding mounting
screw holes in the wall brackets. Ensure that the bracket hole centres are level to each other.
4. Drill the holes in the marked positions using a 5.5mm masonry drill. If the product is to be
fitted onto a ceramic tiled wall a ceramic drill bit should be used.
5. Insert the wall plugs flush to the surface of the wall. If fitting to a tiled surface, the wall plug
should be inserted below the surface of the tile. Secure the wall brackets in position using
the 1
1/4
” screws provided. If a ceiling support is not supplied, please see point 11 to continue
installation.
6. Insert the ceiling hanger support moulding into the hanger rod and secure in place from the
underside of the moulding using the 1” self-tapping screw. Slide the ceiling hanger assembly
(see Fig.4) into the top channel of the rail. It may be necessary to shorten the hanger rod with
a hacksaw to ensure that the rail is level.
7. Determine a suitable location for the position of the ceiling support bracket such as the joist
closest to the corner or centre of the rail. If a suitable joist cannot be located, use a cavity wall
plug for extra strength (not supplied).
