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 DreamLine® will not replace any damaged products or missing parts free of
®
charge after 3 business days or if the product has been installed. Contact DreamLine
questions, and please provide an order number, job name or other proof of purchase to help identify the
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 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.
if you have any
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 model does NOT have any adjustment for out-of-plumb wall conditions. Verify that your walls are
plumb before proceeding with the installation.
8. This model requires that you drill into the threshold for proper installation.
9. Installation of the Guide Rail brackets into a stud or 2” x 6“ wood reinforcement is strongly
recommended. See Steps #8 and #19 for details.
10. This model requires a minumum of 2-1/4” of flat threshold space for installation.
11. Professional installation required.
NOTE: This manual will describe the shower door installation. Please follow the same sequence of
installation steps for the tub door installation.
!
NOTE: DO NOT attach the handle to the door glass until instructed.
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 and/or a professional grade glass suction
cup when handling heavy glass panels.

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
