Think of it like sliding an adjustable bookshelf bracket into place, ensuring the glass door hangs straight and seals properly without requiring messy shims or permanent wall modifications.

Ensure your rough opening matches the 36 by 60 inch kit dimensions before beginning assembly.
Verify that the shower base is installed level on the subfloor to ensure proper center drain water flow.
Attach the anodized aluminum u-shaped wall profile securely, utilizing the built in adjustability for out of plumb walls.
Mount the solid brass hinges carefully to support the 5/16 inch clear tempered glass door panel.
Apply a high grade silicone sealant around the perimeter of the shower base and wall joints after final positioning.
