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.
Step 2 Installing the Curb
Note: If your tub/shower enclosure has a curve in
the corners at the side walls, be sure to measure the
distance from wall to wall ABOVE the curves.
A. Using the tape measure, measure between
right and left walls along the flattest part of the tub
sill/shower dam. Write this dimension down.
B. Using the tape measure, find the center of the
tub sill/shower dam (See Figure 2). Make a mark
where the center is, and add 1” to this mark. Place
a new mark on the front of tub sill/shower dam on
both the right and left sides.
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.
