C. Locate the Curb. Remove the Panel Glide Strip
from the Curb (See Figure 3).
D. Using the measurement from Step 2A, cut the
Curb to this length. Use the miter box and hacksaw
to make a straight cut. If your tub/shower has
curved corners, use a fine metal file to round off
and shape the ends of the Curb to fit the rounded
corners.
E. Locate the Panel Glide Strip (See Figure 2). Using
the wire cutters, cut it 3/4” shorter than the Curb.
Re-install the Panel Glide Strip into the Curb so that
the ends of Panel Glide Strip are evenly spaced at
each end of the Curb.
F. Cut two pieces of painter’s tape 12” long. Next,
use the caulking gun and apply a thick bead of
silicone sealant (approximately 3/8” in diameter) to
the bottom surface of the Curb as indicated in Figure
2. Position the Curb on the tub sill/shower dam.
Use the two strips of painter’s tape to temporarily
secure the Curb in place. DO NOT place the tape
within 2” of the wall.
Note: The tape will help provide a positive seal to
the tub sill/shower dam while also holding the Curb
in place for the following steps, ensuring the silicone
adheres and seals the unit.

Step 3 Installing the Wall Jambs
Note: The Aerial
™
comes with two Wall Jambs. One is
notched for the left wall, the other is notched for the
right wall. Each Wall Jamb is marked clearly on the
bottom back side: “L” for left, “R” for right.
A. Locate the left Wall Jamb.
B. Place the left Wall Jamb against the left wall
and slip the bottom of the Wall Jamb over the Curb.
Use a level, held against the side of the Wall Jamb
to align it vertically straight up and down as shown
in Figure 3.

C. Use a pencil to mark the position of each of the
three pre-drilled holes in the left Wall Jamb. Set the
Wall Jamb aside for the moment.
D. Using either a 1/8” drill bit (for a fiberglass
enclosure) or a 3/16” masonry drill bit (for tile) drill
three holes where you made the marks. If installing
in a tiled enclosure, gently tap a Screw Anchor into
each hole. DO NOT use the Screw Anchors for a
fiberglass enclosure.
E. Place the Wall Jamb back over the Curb and
against the wall and secure with a single #8 x 1 1/2”
FH SMS Screw in the MIDDLE hole only.
F. Repeat Steps 3A-D for the right Wall Jamb,
marked on the bottom with an “R.”
