SAFETY
WARNINGS:
GLASS FRAGILESHARPCAUTIONHEAVY
CAUTION - READ THOROUGHLY BEFORE INSTALLATION
Follow instructions: Instructions must be read and followed carefully to reduce the risk of
serious injury during and after installation. Any deviation from these instructions can create
safety hazards.
Tempered Glass: Agalite enclosures glass panels are safety tempered to conform to general
building codes. The intent of tempering is to reduce the risk of injury. Be careful handling
tempered glass. Pay special attention to protect all edges of the glass from contact with hard
surfaces.
General Notes:
- Exposed ends of aluminum and other hard components can be rough, sharp or jagged due to
the processes of cutting, drilling, notching, etc. Sharp ends must be deburred, smoothed or rounded
by the installer before installation. Failure to do so could result in serious injury to installer and user of
the enclosure.
- Sliding and swinging glass doors hitting any unprotected bathroom obstruction or metal or
glass component of the shower door itself, may indicate improper installation and could lead to glass
breakage or serious injury. The installer must correct the deficiencies before allowing the door to be
used.
- Towel Bars, handles and other accessories are in no way considered to be grab bars or other
bracing or fall prevention mechanisms. The intent of these accessories is to facilitate proper
operations and esthetics of the unit.
Shower Door Facts
Shower Doors are Not Watertight: Depending on the type of shower door selected, a properly
designed and installed shower enclosures will protect areas outside of the enclosure from water
damage under normal shower conditions to varying degrees. Excessive water pressure or directing
the shower head or hand held sprays directly at doors or joints is not a normal shower conditions and
can result a leak. The amount of water that can escape your shower varies by the type of shower as
well. Heavy glass units with no or limited vinyl seals will allow water to escape under normal
conditions. In general, the more metal and seals in the unit, the more water protection will be
achieved.
Drilling holes in horizontal surfaces: Drilling holes to anchor horizontal sills and curbs to
thresholds and tub decks is discouraged. Using masking tape or double-sided tapes to secure nonload bearing components during installation (permanently secured later with silicone/caulking) is one
technique to help minimize potential of water leaking underneath flooring. These instructions do not
recommend drilling holes on horizontal surfaces for this reason.
Metal Colors:
- Anodized Aluminum: The color of anodized Silver, Brushed Nickel, Satin Silver, Dark Bronze,
and Gold anodized aluminum will vary between adjacent components because of variability's within
polishing, anodizing process and alloy composition. We make every effort to limit the variation; but, it
is allowable and must be accepted.
- Electro Plated Brass and Stainless Steel: The color of Silver, Brushed Nickel, Satin Silver, Oil
Rubbed Bronze, Dark Bronze, and Gold electro plated components will also vary. This is allowable.
Most of these finishes are also “living finishes”, meaning, they may change, wear, weather, show
patina, oxidize, etc. over the life of the product. This is allowable.
- Powder Coat: This is a painting process and therefore can achieve the best color matching.
Power coat paint, however, is less durable at joints of moving components and at edges that have
been cut after the powder coat has cured. Some flaking or chipping in these areas are allowable.
- All Metal: Any metal component (and glass components as well) will have limited scratches and
pits. We make every effort to limit them; but, they are allowable and must be accepted.
Cleaning and Care: refer to your owners manual for cleaning and care instructions.
