Before You Begin

CAUTION: Risk of injury or product damage. Do not attempt to cut tempered glass. Tempered glass shatters when it is cut.

NOTICE: Do not touch the edge of the tempered glass panel with tools or any hard objects. Do not set the unframed tempered glass edge directly on the ﬂoor. This will reduce the risk of shattering.

NOTE: Record the model number on the Homeowners Guide. The proper model number will enable our customer service representatives to quickly help you if needed.

IMPORTANT! This door is designed to accommodate walls that are less than 3/8″ (1 cm) out of plumb. Verify the area the door will be attached to is within 3/8″ (1 cm) or better of plumb. The door may not function properly if the wall is more than 3/8″ (1 cm) out of plumb.

Your new Kohler door can be installed with the door opening to either the right or left. Install the door with the pivot side away from the showerhead for best results. These instructions show the door installed with a left side swing. Doors that swing to the right would be opposite.

Before starting the installation, lay out and identify all of the parts. Inspect them for damage. The shower receptor should be installed and prepared at this time, including ﬁnished wall materials. Some steps in these instructions are speciﬁc to a right or left side hinge installation. Follow the

instructions which pertain to your installation conﬁguration. Place a drop cloth in the bottom of your shower to cover your drain and ease clean-up. Closely follow the instructions pertaining to the sealant application on the door. Sealing areas other

than those shown may cause leaking. Two people should perform this installation. Kohler Co. reserves the right to make revisions to the design of products without notice, as speciﬁed

in the Price Book.

1. Determine the Door Conﬁguration

IMPORTANT! Depending on which pivot conﬁguration is chosen (left or right) your assembly instructions will vary. For purposes of these instructions, a ″left hinge″ installation is shown.

IMPORTANT! Install the pivot side of the door on the side opposite the showerhead. The handle side of the door should be on the same side as the showerhead.

Determine whether the door will pivot on the right or left side. Make sure the door can swing freely in the chosen conﬁguration. Locate the bottom track on the shower ledge with the front side facing the outside of the shower. Label the pivot side and strike side of the bottom track using masking tape.

3. Locate the Wall Jambs

Position the wall jamb ﬂat against the wall with the base of the jamb centered on the shower threshold.

NOTE: Some ﬁling may be required of the bottom edge of the wall jamb if your bath unit has rounded corners.

Plumb the wall jamb into position using a level. Temporarily secure the level position of the wall jamb with several pieces of masking tape. Make a pencil mark at the four pre-drilled hole locations in the wall jamb. Remove the masking tape, then remove the wall jamb to an out of the way place to prepare for

drilling of the four holes. Slowly drill the marked hole location with a 5/16″ drill bit. If drilling through ceramic tile, use a

masonry drill bit.

NOTE: When installing on ceramic tile, use a center punch to lightly ″nick″ the surface of the glaze. Tap the center punch lightly with a hammer to avoid cracking the tile.

Insert a wall anchor into each hole. Reposition the wall jamb over the installed wall anchors. Secure the wall jamb loosely onto the wall with the four # 8-18 x 2″ provided screws.

NOTE: NOTE: Thoroughly clean and dry all dust, dirt, and grease from the bottom track and shower ledge surfaces.

Repeat the procedure for the opposite wall jamb, taking care to make sure it is directly opposite the ﬁrst installed wall jamb.

Locate the Wall Jambs (cont.)

NOTE: To ensure the jambs are aligned directly opposite each other, measure from the front edge of the receptor to the front edge of the installed wall jamb.

Locate the second wall jamb the same distance away from the front edge of the receptor.

4. Seal and Install the Bottom Track

Thoroughly clean and dry all dust, dirt, and grease from the bottom track and shower ledge surfaces where the bottom track will sit and the silicone sealant will be applied.

Measure from the left side stop in the wall jamb to the right side stop (dimension A). Using a pencil, mark dimension A on all three sides of the bottom track. Along the inside edge of the pencil marks, place a piece of masking tape. Carefully cut the bottom track along the masking tape edge. Use a ﬁle to remove the rough edges along the cut. Remove the masking tape.

Apply sealant here.

Bottom Track

NOTE: When positioning the bottom track in the wall jambs, move the inside edge of the bottom track against the small stop ﬁrst. Then gently push the entire bottom track down until the outside edge is in position against the wall jamb and the threshold .

Insert the bottom track between the two wall jambs to check for proper ﬁt. The outside of the bottom track (high side) should face toward the outside of the shower. The inside end of the bottom track should ﬁt snugly against the back edge of the wall jamb (Inside of Shower)

Remove the bottom track from the wall jambs. Apply silicone sealant in the groove located on the underside of the bottom track. Reinstall the bottom track. Secure the bottom track in place with masking tape.

CAUTION: Risk of product damage.It is critical the provided spacers are re-installed in the conﬁguration shown in the attached view. If the spacers are not reinstalled, metal-to-glass contact will result. The glass will shatter then the handle is tightened.

Position the latch in the strike jamb. Using the 5/64″ hex wrench provided, tighten the two screws to secure the latch in place. Repeat with the second latch. Push the strike jamb into the appropriate wall jamb with the wide lip facing toward the inside of

the shower. Each slot in the strike jamb will slide over the screw body and ﬁt between the clamp and wall jamb.

Secure the strike jamb to the wall jamb at the top and bottom by tightening the ﬂathead screws with the 3/32″ hex wrench until snug.

Install a strike jamb cover on the top opening of the strike jamb. Use scissors or a utility knife to cut any excess bulb seal away so the seal is ﬂush with the top of

the strike jamb. Slide the strike seal strip into the T-slot of the strike jamb until the seal touches the bottom track. With a utility knife, trim the excess seal so the seal is ﬂush with the top of the strike jamb.
