BEFORE YOU START
The most fragile parts of tempered glass panels are the corners. Therefore, it is critical you have the rubber blocks in place
so the glass never touches the tile surface you are installing onto. Please make sure the glass is always on blocks while out of the
packaging prior/during install. We have provided some rubber blocks as part of the install kit but you can use wood, cardboard or
other rubber products to protect against breakage.
Silicon is not provided as part of the install kit, this will need to be purchased separately. We recommend using clear, mold
resistant silicon which be purchased at your local hardware store.
The items included for this shower door model are listed below, this would have all been shipped in 3 packages.

PART ONE – Install Fixed Panel
1. On the wall where the fixed panel is to be placed, mark a level vertical line on the wall with a level.
a. This line is where you will be attaching the 2 clamps to the wall.
i. TIP: We recommend using a pencil so this can be easily removed.
2. Mark the center point for the clamps.
a. Top clip: measure 71 ¼ inches from the floor up wall along the vertical line and mark this point
b. Bottom clip: measure 7 ¾ inches from the floor up the wall the vertical line and mark this point.
c. For the floor clamp we recommend this to be placed 2” from edge of glass furthest away from the wall (close to
door side).
3. Drill holes and fix clips to the wall.
a. Drill the holes where marked using a ¼” drill bit and insert wall plugs provided, you will need to use a hammer to
get these into the wall (be very careful you do not crack tile with hammer).
b. Screw the clips to the wall and floor using a cordless / power drill.
c. Make sure all the clips are in place and screws are securely tightened so the clip does not move
4. Set the fixed panel in place.
a. Place the 1/8” rubber blocks provided on the ground 2 inches from the wall edge of the panel. You use the thin
1/16” rubber block provided inside the floor clip and this will prevent the glass weight being on the clip.
b. Carefully place the fixed panel on the rubber block and into the floor clamp and gently slide the glass into the wall
clamps.
i. IMPORTANT: The most fragile parts of the glass panels are the corners. Therefore, it is critical you have
the rubber blocks in place so the glass never touches the tile surface you are installing onto.
5. Ensure the fixed panel is level.
a. On the edge that will meet the door panel, use a level to make sure the fixed panel is level and in line.
i. TIP: Use additional rubber blocks on bottom of glass to raise/drop the fixed panel if required to make level.
b. Tighten the grub screws on the clips as tight as you can to make sure the glass is very secure. Don’t be concerned
about breaking the glass as long as the rubber insert is in grub screw you cannot break glass.
PART TWO – Install Door Panel
1. Attach the hinges to the door panel.
a. Ensure you have the hinges placed in the correct direction, screws to mount to wall are on inside of shower
enclosure.
b. Lightly tighten each screw with the allen keys provided so the hinges are lightly secure only. They are going to be
removed again.
i. TIP: Center each hinge to the glass cutout allowing some space to adjust the height of the door panel once
installed.
2. Attach the door handle to the door panel.
i. IMPORTANT: Ensure the handle is firmly attached.
ii. TIP: Most DIY-ers wont have professional suction/vacuum equipment to lift the glass, so this is why we
recommend attaching the door handle first so when lifting the glass you have something secure to hold
onto.
3. Set the door panel in place.
a. Place some packers on the ground close to the outside edges of the glass door to keep the glass approx. 3/8” from
the ground. The honeycomb cardboard from the glass packaging is useful for this application.
b. Carefully place the door panel on the packers and then ensure the tops of both the fixed and door panel are level
and the vertical gap between the door and fixed panel is even.
i. NOTE: The door panel is ¼ inch shorter than the fixed panel to allow for swing and to ft door sweep.
c. If the shower glass is sitting on top of a step/hob, make sure the edge of the glass to the edge of the step/hob is
even.
i. TIP: Use a tap measure on all four corners of each panel so everything lines up and the distance is even for
the entire width of your hob.
4. Mark the holes to drill for the hinges.
a. Once you have step 3 complete, make sure the glass door and fixed panel line up perfectly from bottom to top of
glass and use a pencil or marker pen to mark the three holes on the two hinges on the wall.
5. Remove the door panel so you can drill the holes in wall for the hinges.
i. IMPORTANT: The most fragile parts of the glass panels are the corners. Please make sure you have the
glass up on blocks or sitting on the packaging provided while doing this next step.
6. Drill the holes for the hinges.
a. Drill holes using a ¼” tile drill bit and put in the plugs provided.
7. Set the door in place.
a. Set the door back in place on the blocks.
b. Line the hinges over their respective holes and drill the screws in place so they are firmly secure.
c. IMPORTANT: All three screws are required for each of the hinges.
d. Make sure the gaps between the panels are even and door is not touching the wall or other glass panel.
e. Using the allen key, firmly secure the screws on the hinges.
f. Remove any rubber blocks or packing.
g. Swing door very gently to make sure the glass is not binding anywhere.
h. Apply the bottom door sweep provided to prevent any water leakage from under the door. Please make sure the
bottom of the door is very clean before installing
PART THREE – Silicone Fixed Panel
1. Silicone the wall and floor surface of the fixed panel.
i. TIP: Spraying the silicone with water after applying the silicone and using a spatula of some kind to
remove the silicone residue will give you a nice clean and professional finish.
2. Once you have completed the silicone, its critical you leave the silicone to set for 24 hours.
