Bottom Track
Slide the notched end of the insert into the
groove in the bottom track, grasp the insert and
pull to the opposite end. Trim the insert flush
with the bottom track.
Measure distance "A." On the bottom track,
measure "A." Subtract 1/4” (6 mm) or the width
of a number 2 pencil from "A;" mark and cut the
bottom track.
Position the bottom track on the center of the
ledge. If needed, file the ends to match the
corners.
Position the bottom track on the ledge with the
front face evenly spaced (D) along the front
edge, even gaps on each side (C). 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.
Plumb using a level. Secure with tape. For each
screw hole, mark the locations or drill a pilot
hole.
Remove the wall jambs. Drill 5/16” holes at each
mark and insert the anchors.
Apply silicone sealant in the groove on the
underside of the bottom track. Secure the bottom
track to the ledge along the marked location
with tape.
Install both wall jambs. Secure the wall jambs
with screws. If you are using a power drill, take
care not to strip the screw heads. Install the
screw covers.
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.

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 21.
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 21.
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 25.
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 24 and 25. 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 21.
C. Ensure the rollers are properly installed. See steps 14, through 18.
D. Clean any debris in the top track groove.
E. Ensure that the hanger bracket is tight to the glass.
Position the top track over the wall jambs. Either
side of the top track may face out. At each end of
the top track, insert and twist a bumper 1224786
into place over the rails. Slide the bumpers
against the wall jambs.
Install the bottom bumpers. Bumper 1225277
installs on the right side jamb. Bumper 1225276
installs on the left side jamb. Orient each bumper
with the number against the wall jamb.
For both doors, slide a gasket over the top of the
door panel and into each mounting hole. Press
the hanger bracket over the gasket and align the
hanger brackets with the mounting holes.
While pressing downward on the hanger
brackets, use screwdrivers to thread the bolts
into the barrel nuts. Tighten until the hanger
brackets are secured firmly in place.
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.
Tilt the top of the outside panel toward you,
carefully lift the bottom edge over the bottom
track, and position the rollers on the outside rail.
Remove the protective corners from the bottom
of both door panels. Position both doors on the
same side of the opening.
Measure to determine the center of the bottom
track and mark. Position and center the guide on
the bottom track and align the door panels with
the guide.
On the inside of the shower, hold the guide
against the bottom track and slide the doors
from wall to wall. If the doors stick, remove the
door and position the rollers in the lower hole to
raise the glass or upper hole to lower the door.
Hold the guide in place and secure with the two
self-tapping screws. Do not overtighten!
Press a spacer onto each back plate and post.
Use a 9/64” hex wrench to assemble the handles
as shown.
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.
