Setup and Installation
This section outlines the general steps for installing your WOODBRIDGE Frameless Bathtub Shower Door. Refer to the detailed illustrated guide included in your package for precise measurements and specific hardware instructions.
Pre-Installation Checklist:
- Verify all package contents against the packing list.
- Ensure walls are finished (tiled, painted, etc.) and are plumb and square.
- Gather necessary tools (e.g., drill, level, measuring tape, silicone sealant).
Installation Steps:
- Measure and Mark: Carefully measure your bathtub opening. Mark the positions for the wall profiles and top guide bar according to the provided diagram (Figure 2).
- Install Wall Profiles: Secure the wall profiles to the finished walls using appropriate fasteners. Ensure they are perfectly vertical.
- Install Top Guide Bar: Attach the top guide bar. This bar can be trimmed up to 4 inches for width adjustment if needed.
- Install Fixed Panel: Carefully place the fixed glass panel into its designated position within the wall profile and secure it.
- Attach Rollers to Sliding Door: Secure the large solid stainless steel rollers to the top edge of the sliding door panel.
- Hang Sliding Door: Carefully hang the sliding door panel onto the top guide bar, ensuring the rollers engage smoothly with the track.
- Install Pull Handle: Attach the pull handle to the sliding door.
- Apply Silicone Sealant: Apply a high-quality silicone sealant along the bottom and vertical edges where the fixed panel meets the wall and bathtub to ensure a watertight seal. Allow adequate drying time before use.
Reversible Installation: The shower door is designed for reversible installation, meaning it can be configured for either a left or right wall setup. The fixed panel is always positioned on the outside, regardless of the chosen configuration.
Important Note on Walls: The doors DO NOT allow for any adjustment for out of plumb walls. For proper installation, all walls must be at right angles and be plumb.
Operating Instructions
Your WOODBRIDGE Frameless Bathtub Shower Door is designed for smooth and effortless operation.
- Opening/Closing: Gently grasp the pull handle and slide the door along the top guide bar. The double rollers ensure a quiet and smooth motion.
- Water Containment: The anti-splash threshold at the bottom is designed to prevent water spills outside the shower area. Ensure the door is fully closed during showering.
Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your shower door.
- Glass Cleaning: For daily cleaning, wipe the glass with a soft cloth or squeegee after each use to prevent water spots. For deeper cleaning, use a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads that can scratch the glass or damage the finish.
- Hardware Cleaning: Clean the brushed nickel hardware with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, ammonia-based products, or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish. The EnduraClean finish is designed to resist rust, chips, and scratches.
- Roller Maintenance: Periodically check the rollers for any debris or buildup. Clean them gently to ensure continued smooth operation.
- Sealant Inspection: Inspect the silicone sealant periodically for any signs of wear or mold. Reapply sealant if necessary to maintain a watertight seal.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your shower door, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Door does not slide smoothly. | Debris in track or on rollers; rollers need cleaning. | Clean the top guide bar and rollers thoroughly. Ensure no hair or soap scum is obstructing movement. |
| Water leaks from the bottom of the door. | Sealant issue; door not fully closed; anti-splash threshold obstructed. | Check the silicone sealant along the bottom edge and reapply if necessary. Ensure the door is fully closed. Clear any obstructions from the anti-splash threshold. |
| Door appears crooked or misaligned. | Walls are not plumb; installation error. | This door requires plumb and square walls. If walls are not plumb, professional assistance may be required to adjust the wall profiles or shims. Review installation steps carefully. |
