Preparation
1.
Prior to installation, examine all boxes and packages for shipping damage and compare the piece
count with your packing slip. After opening all boxes and packages read this introduction carefully.
Check that all of the needed parts are included in the package by checking off the components
on the “Detailed Diagram of Shower Door Components”. If the unit has been damaged, has a
finishing defect, or has missing parts, please contact our customer support department within
3 business days of the delivery date. Please note that DreamLine
®
will not replace any
damaged products or missing parts free of charge after 3 business days or if the product
has been installed. Feel free to contact DreamLine
®
if you have any questions, and please
provide an order number, job name or other proof of purchase to help us identify your original

2.
Please note that you should consult your local building codes with questions about
installation compliance standards. Building and plumbing codes may vary by location, and
DreamLine
®
is not responsible for code compliance standards for your project and will not
accept any returns.
3.
If this unit is going to be installed in a new construction, please install all of the required
plumbing and drainage before installing the shower. Use a competent and licensed (if required
by local code) plumber for all plumbing installation.
4.
Please make sure that prior to beginning the installation, the surfaces are leveled and solid and
will be able to support the total weight of the unit. Also make sure the walls are at right angles.
Irregular installation surface level, radius corners or improper angle of side walls will result in
serious problems for your installation. Please, note that some adjustments and drilling may be
necessary during the installation process.
5.
Please protect all primary surfaces of the product during installation. Never set your glass down
directly onto a tile floor. Leave corner protectors in place until necessary to remove them.
Always use a piece of wood or cardboard to protect the bottom edge and corners of the glass
prior to and during installation.
6.
This unit must be installed
upon a finished threshold and against finished walls.
7.

Be sure that you have ordered the correct model size to fit your finished opening.
8.
This model requires a minimum 1-3/8” of flat threshold space for installation.
