5. Installation Instructions
Careful measurement and preparation are key to a successful installation. Ensure your shower opening dimensions are within the adjustable range of 42 7/8" to 46 6/8" wide and 76" high.
5.1 Pre-Installation Steps
- Measure Opening: Accurately measure the width and height of your shower opening at multiple points to confirm it is within the product's specifications.
- Prepare Area: Ensure the shower base/curb is level and the walls are plumb. Clean the installation area thoroughly.
- Gather Tools: Have all necessary tools ready, including a drill, level, tape measure, caulk gun, screwdriver, and safety gear.
5.2 Main Installation Steps (General Guide)
- Install Wall Profiles: Attach the vertical wall profiles to the shower walls using appropriate fasteners and anchors. Use a level to ensure they are perfectly vertical. When drilling holes for brackets, consider drilling in the upper part of the slot to allow for maximum adjustment when leveling the top bar.
- Mount Top Guide Rail: Secure the top guide rail between the wall profiles. Ensure it is level and properly aligned.
- Install Bottom Guide Track: Position and secure the bottom guide track to the shower curb. Ensure it aligns with the top rail and is level.
- Attach Rollers to Glass Panels: Fasten the sliding rollers to the top edge of the glass panels according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Hang Glass Panels: Carefully lift and hang the glass panels onto the top guide rail rollers. Ensure they move smoothly.
- Install Bottom Guides: Insert the bottom guides into the glass panels and align them with the bottom track.
- Attach Handles: Securely install the door handles on the glass panels.
- Apply Waterproof Strips: Install the waterproof strips along the edges and bottom of the glass panels to ensure a watertight seal.
- Seal with Silicone: Apply a bead of silicone sealant along the exterior joints of the wall profiles and the shower base to prevent water leakage. Allow adequate curing time before use.

7. Maintenance and Care
Regular cleaning and maintenance will preserve the appearance and functionality of your shower door.
- Glass Cleaning: Use a soft cloth or sponge with a non-abrasive glass cleaner or a solution of mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads that can scratch the glass or damage the finish.
- Hardware Cleaning: Clean brushed gold aluminum components with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, ammonia-based products, or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
- Track Maintenance: Periodically clean the top rail and bottom track to remove soap scum, hair, or debris that could impede door movement.
- Seal Inspection: Regularly inspect waterproof strips and silicone seals for wear or damage. Replace or re-seal as necessary to prevent leaks.
8. Troubleshooting

- Door Does Not Slide Smoothly:
- Check tracks for debris (hair, soap scum). Clean thoroughly.
