Preparation

1. Prior to installation, examine all boxes and packages for shipping damage and compare the piece count with the packing slip. After opening all boxes and packages read this introduction carefully. Check that all of the necessary 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

2. Please note that you should consult your local building codes with questions on installation

compliance standards. Building and plumbing codes may vary by location, and DreamLine 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. Note that some adjustments and drilling will be necessary during the installation process.

5. Please protect all primary surfaces of the product during installation. Never set the 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. This door is extremely heavy and the hinges on this door must be attached into studs or to

preinstalled 2”× 6” wood reinforcement behind the wall. See step #5 for details.

Installation Steps

1. Attach the Hinges (#05) onto the

Door Glass (#01), using one (2mm)

vinyl hinge gasket per side. Center the hinge in the notch and flush with the edge of the glass. (Fig 1a and Fig 1b)

TIP: Clean the hinge gaskets and the glass around the hinge notch with an

!

ammonia free glass cleaner prior to attaching the hinges to the glass.

NOTE: DO NOT attach the handle to the door glass at this time. DO NOT use the handle to lift the glass during installation. This may result in damage to the

glass and/or serious injury. Always use an assistant or a professional grade glass suction cup when handling heavy glass.

2. Set the Door Glass (#01) (with two 5/8” spacers attached to the bottom) onto the threshold at the

desired location and check for level. The provided 5/8” spacers will leave the proper spacing at the bottom of the Door Glass (#01). Carefully position the Door Glass (#01) with the hinge side against the wall, adjust its position and check for plumb with a level before marking the hinge positions. (Fig 2)

NOTE: Use a tape measure to confirm that the installed height of the Door Glass (#01) will match the height of the Stationary Panel Glass (#11) before marking the hinge locations.

TIP: Position the hinge-side bottom

Never set the glass down directly onto a tile or concrete floor. Always use a

piece of wood or cardboard and leave the corner pads and protective shims on the glass until it becomes necessary to remove them. This will protect the bottom edge and corners from damage which could lead to breakage.

11UNIDOOR TOULON manual Ver 1 Rev 1 07/2018

3. If the hinge-side wall is out-of-plumb, use the

PVC Hinge Spacers (#31) to plumb the door. Do not exceed 1/4” of adjustment. (Fig 3)

!

IMPORTANT: The included PVC Hinge Spacers (#31)

are provided to compensate for minor out-of-plumb wall conditions. Use only as needed as their use could compromise the opening size of your shower and prevent proper installation.

4. Check the hinge-side wall with a level to determine if the wall is out-of-plumb. Use the correct

PVC Glass Spacer(s) (#34) to correct for the condition if it exists. Then use the same spacers during

the final installation of the hinges to the wall. (Fig 4)

surfaces during installation. If necessary, remove the inside hinge cover plate to install the mounting screws that are inside the shower. (Fig 6.2)

INSTALL THE DOOR: Option #1 - Leave the hinges on the Door Glass (#01). Install the outside hinge plate screws first, then

open the door slightly and install the inside hinge screws.

Option #2 - Remove the hinges from the Door Glass (#01). Install the hinges onto the wall. Attach the Door Glass (#01) to the installed hinges.

Use one (2mm) vinyl hinge gasket per side. Tighten the allen bolts and cover the allen bolts with the decorative covers. (Fig 6)

the alignment of the inline panel glass. Slide the U-Channel 1 (#29) onto the bottom of the installed door glass.

Hold the door in a closed position, parallel to the outside edge of the threshold. Mark the threshold in several places along the U-Channel, checking with a tape measure to stay in-line.

Slide the U-Channel over toward the panel-side wall to mark the rest of the threshold. Use this line as a reference to install the Bottom U-Channel for the Stationary Panel Glass (#11), Remove the Bottom U-Channel from the door glass and proceed to the next step. (Fig 8)

The Stationary Panel Glass (#11) needs to be aligned with the installed Door Glass (#01) and the positions of the U-Channels marked for drilling and installation.

12. Dry fit the Stationary Panel Glass (#11) and

U-Channels onto the threshold. Use the mark on the

threshold from Step #8 for reference. The install positions of the U-Channels need to be marked on the threshold and wall after the panel glass is aligned with the Door Glass.

◾ Open the door and place the Bottom U-Channel 2 (#29) onto the threshold.

◾ Add several 2” pieces of the 0.5mm PVC Glass Spacers (#34) into the Bottom U-Channel 2 (#29) to

Product Maintenance

BASES and BACKWALLS: To ensure long-lasting life for your acrylic back walls, wipe them off

after each use with a soft cloth. To clean the acrylic back walls use non-abrasive sprays or cream based cleaners. Avoid the use of aerosol spray cleaners. Never use abrasive cleansers, metal brushes or scrapers that could scratch or dull the surface.

GLASS: To ensure long-lasting life for your glass shower products, wipe them off after each use

with a soft cloth. Rinse and wipe off the glass using either a soft cloth or a squeegee to prevent soap buildup and water spots (Hard water can etch the surface of the glass over time if left to dry). To prevent scratching the surface: never use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products that contain scouring agents. Never use bristle brushes or abrasive sponges that may scratch the surface.

HARDWARE: To ensure a long-lasting finish, wipe off the metal parts after each use with a soft

cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products containing ammonia, bleach or acid. If accidentally used, rinse the surface as soon as possible to prevent damage to the finish (peeling or corrosion). After cleaning the polished finishes, rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft cloth. Clean stainless steel surfaces at least once a week. When applying stainless steel cleaner or polish to stainless steel hardware, work with (not across) the grain. Never use an abrasive sponge or cloth, steel wool or wired brush as these may permanently scratch the surfaces.

NOTE: To maximize the life of your door, it is important to regularly inspect the glass and all hardware for misalignment, proper attachment, and/or damage. Contact DreamLine
