Preparation

1. Prior to installation, examine all boxes and packages for shipping damage and compare the

piece count with your packing slip. After opening all boxes and packages read this
introduction carefully. Check that all of the needed 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

DreamLine® will not replace any damaged products or missing parts free of charge after

have any questions, and please provide an order number, job name or other proof of purchase
to help us identify your original order.

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® is not responsible for code compliance standards for your project and

3. Please make sure that prior to beginning the installation, the surfaces are leveled and solid and

Irregular installation surface level or improper angle of side walls will result in serious problems
for your installation. Please, note that some adjustments and drilling might be necessary
during the installation process.
