Carefully replace the curb in the exact position marked.
Caulk the inside of the curb ends where they meet
the wall.
Replace both wall jambs and attach to the

Place two setting blocks [

] into the curb [
A
] to
support the fixed glass panel [
F
]. Position the blocks 3”
from each corner of the glass panel. Set the glass panel
into place on the setting blocks and approximately 1/2”
into the wall jamb [
B
]. A strip of masking tape 1/2”
from each vertical edge of the glass will aid alignment.
NOTE: Obscure or etched glass panels should be
installed with the rough or patterned surface of the
glass to the exterior of the unit.
Press the 180
°
post [
G
] into the curb and position to
overlap the glass panel by 1/2”. Use masking tape to
hold the post in position temporarily.
NOTE: To facilitate out-of-plumb walls, the 1/2” glass
bite may be varied from 1/4” to ¾”.
