General Instructions
- Read this manual carefully and completely before proceeding.
- It is recommended that you wear safety glasses at all times during the installation.
Installation over Ceramic Tiles
- Silicone should be used to seal the gap where the
- If your shower door is to be installed over ceramic tiles, the tiles should lay completely under the wall jamb.
Notice
- Caulking: no sealant is required inside the shower.
- All models are equipped with transparent sealing gaskets.
Care for your Frameless Shower Door
- Never use scouring powder pads or sharp instruments on metal pieces or glass panels. An occasional wiping down with a mild soap diluted in water is all that is needed to keep the panels and aluminum parts looking new.
- We recommend wiping the glass panels with a squeegee after each use.
