Cut Line
1/4" (6 mm)
Measure distance “A.” Subtract 1/4” (6 mm) or
the width of a number 2 pencil from “A” and cut
the bottom track.
Position the bottom track on the center of the
ledge. If needed, file the ends to match the
corners.
Center the bottom track on the ledge with the leg
to the outside. Tape the bottom track in place and
mark the position.
Important! The bottom track and wall jamb
must sit flat against the shower ledge and the
wall. If needed, trim and file the wall jamb. Use a
coin to match and to transfer the corner radius of
the shower to the wall jamb.
Position the wall jambs over the bottom track.
The long leg of each wall jamb faces the outside
of the shower. Plumb both wall jambs. Mark the
screw holes.
Remove the wall jambs. Drill 5/16” holes into the
walls and insert the anchors.
Reposition both wall jambs. Secure the wall
jambs with screws.
Measure distance “B” above the wall jambs.
Subtract 1/32” (1 mm) or the width of a saw
blade from “B.” Mark and cut the top track.
Place the top track over the wall jambs (either
side may face out). At each end of the top track,
insert and twist a bumper into place over the
rails. Slide the bumpers against the wall jambs.
For both doors, slide a gasket over the top of the
glass panel and into each mounting hole. Press
the hanger bracket over the gasket and align the
hanger brackets with the mounting holes.
5400 Heavy Glass Series Sliding Shower Doors
IMPORTANT! Do not cut the top track the same length as the bottom track.
Walls must be within 3/8” (10 mm) of plumb.
Cover the drain with tape to avoid loss of small parts.
Follow the silicone sealant manufacturer’s instructions for application and
curing time.

Troubleshooting
Symptom: Alignment Recommended Action
1. The top of the door panel is tilted away from
the wall.
A. Remove the door panel from the top track and lower the roller that is closest to the wall. See step 18.
2. The bottom of the door panel is tilted away
from the wall.
A. Remove the door panel from the top track and raise the roller that is closest to the wall. See step 18.
3. The door panel does not touch the bumper. A. Determine whether the door panel top or bottom is closer to the wall, and then adjust the roller closest to the wall.
4. The bottom track is miscut or skewed. A. The notched wall jamb fits over the bottom track to cover any miscut or skewed cuts. Seal as directed to ensure
proper watertight seal. See step 23.
Symptom: Water Leaks Recommended Action
1. Water leaks between panels. A. When showering, make sure the inside panel is against the showerhead wall.
2. Water leaks between the wall jamb and the
door panel.
A. Adjust the door panel to line up with the wall jamb. Add the optional seal. See step 24 and 25.
3. Water leaks under the bottom track. A. Check for proper silicone sealant application. See steps 22 and 23. Apply more silicone sealant in the leak location.
Symptom: Operation (open/close) Recommended Action
1. The inside and/or outside panel is difficult to
move.
A. Ensure a gap exists between the guide and the door panel. If no gap exists, lower the rollers.
B. Ensure the inside center guide is properly secured with the self-tapping screws. See step 19.
C. Ensure the rollers are properly installed. See steps 13, 14, 15, and 16.
D. Clean any debris in the top track groove.
E. Ensure that the hanger bracket is tight to the glass.
While pressing downward on the hanger
brackets, use screwdrivers to thread the sex bolt
into the barrel nut. Tighten until the hanger
brackets are secured firmly in place.
Before proceeding, identify which door panel
will install on the inside track. The inside panel
will be the door panel closest to the showerhead.
When the inside panel is in position, the label
will be on the outside of the shower and the
handle hole will be next to the wall jamb.
On the inside panel, assemble a roller to the
middle hole of each hanger bracket. Install
the rollers on the side of the door panel that is
opposite the label.
Lift the inside panel onto the inside track. The
label faces the outside of the shower.
On the outside panel, assemble a roller to the
middle hole of each hanger bracket. Install the
rollers on the same side of the door panel as the
label.
Lift the outside panel onto the outside track. The
label faces the outside of the shower.
Measure and mark the center of the bottom track.
Position the guide under the lip of the bottom
track. Center the guide on the bottom track and
slide a leg of the guide inside the frame of each
door panel.
While holding the guide in place, slide the doors
from wall to wall. If either panel binds or needs
adjustment, remove the door and position the
rollers in new holes to raise or lower the glass.
Hold the guide in place and secure with the two
self-tapping screws. Do not overtighten!
Insert the endcaps into the bottom corners of
each shower door.
Press a spacer onto each back plate and post. Use
a 9/64” hex wrench to assemble the handles as
shown. On the outside panel, the handle installs
on the outside of the shower. On the inside panel,
the handle installs on the inside of the shower.
Outside the shower, use silicone sealant to seal
along the entire length of the wall jambs and the
bottom track.
Inside the shower, use silicone sealant to seal
along the entire length of the wall jambs and
where the wall jambs meet the bottom track.
Optional Wipe Seal for Water Containment:
Measure the height of the door opening and
add 1/2” (13 mm). Trim both wipe seals to this
measurement. To avoid interference with the
frame of the door panel, notch the bottom of
each wipe seal.
The wipe seal should rest on the top edge of
the bottom track and extend into the top track.
Remove the adhesive backing and attach to the
wall jamb as shown.
