Single Cabinet “RO” Rough Opening formula: Overall cabinet width less 5/8” = Rough Opening
Two Cabinets “RO” Rough Opening formula: Overall cabinet width less 5/8” plus the overall width of the second added cabinet = Rough Opening
Three Cabinet “RO” Rough Opening formula: Overall cabinet width less 5/8” plus the overall width of the two added cabinets = Rough Opening
Example: Model GC1630 combined with Model GC2430 = 15” less 5/8” = 14 3/8” plus 23” = 37 3/8” R.O. width.
Height: overall cabinet height less 5/8” = R.O. Height.
Rough Opening:
Note: Cabinet installs over nished wall with sheetrock
and/or tile nishes completed. 3/4” Flange on all sides of

Glass Shelves Installation
After the Mirrored Cabinet box has been properly installed, determine the appropriate height and location for
the glass shelves.
Note: make sure the back wall mirror has been
completely cleaned after installation. If cleaning the back
wall mirror is necessary, use a household non-ammonia
glass cleaner.
Cleaning Recommendations:
Never use abrasive cleaners or cleaners containing
ammonia. This may cause chemical damage to the
mirror and void the warranty.
For cleaning the mirror, we recommend using
“ammonia free” Sprayway brand glass
cleaner, which is available at a variety of retail outlets.
www.spraywayinc.com/content/glass-cleaner
Each glass shelf will require four (4) shelf
clips. Use care when handling the non-tempered glass shelves. On a level plane insert
the shelf clips into the pre-punched holes.
The clips are designed for a tight tension t
to hold the shelf. Place each glass shelf on the top of
the left clip rst, then slowly lower onto the right clip with
a snap t.
After glass shelves are installed insert hole plugs in all
open holes to complete installation.
24” Height Series = 2 Shelves + 8 Shelf Clips
30” Height Series = 3 Shelves + 12 Shelf Clips
Hole Plugs
36” Height Series = 4 Shelves + 16 Shelf Clips
