] 1”
longer than the vertical opening (to prevent gapping

small vinyl and press into the jamb and post on each

outside exterior jamb, press each end into the frame and
work toward the middle. Be careful not to stretch the
vinyl. Install the other three pieces in a similar fashion.

Carefully caulk the interior jamb-to-wall and
curb-to-base joints. For appearance, you may wish to
caulk the exterior joints as well. We recommend you
wait twenty-four hours before the first shower to allow
the caulking to cure properly.
