Shower Door Installation 1. Measure the distance between two walls. This distance is marked as “W”. See Fig. 1 for details. W Fig. 1 2. The Upper guide rail (01) and the Bottom guide rail (04) has been precut for the installation between the walls with a distance of: a) 48” If W=48”, then it is unnecessary to cut the Guide rails and you can continue to Step 3. If W<48”, you will need to cut: • Upper guide rail (01) from one end. The cutting length will be D; D=48”−W.
3. Secure Upper guide rail (01) and Bottom guide rail (04) to the Glass profiles (03) with the Flat head screws ST4.2x25 (09). 3 1 See Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 for details. 2 4 Fig. 3 Fig. 4 Rev 1.

5. Move the finished frame to the designated position and push it against the walls. If your top and bottom wall opening measurements are different or if the walls are out-of-plumb, make adjustment by slightly pulling the Wall profiles out of the Glass Profiles. Use the level to adjust the frame in the vertical position. See Fig. 7 for details. Fig. 7 6. Using help to hold this frame in the right position, mark the drill holes on the wall through the holes on the flange of the Wall Profile.
