Understanding Flexible Wall Adjustments
Installing a shower door in an older home often presents challenges due to walls that are slightly out of plumb. Think of it like hanging a picture frame on a wall that leans just a fraction of an inch; without a way to compensate, gaps appear at the edges. The wall profiles on this pivot door allow for up to 1 in. of total adjustment, acting like a built-in leveler that ensures the frame sits flush against uneven surfaces. This engineering detail prevents gaps, simplifies alignment, and results in a sturdy, professional installation without needing custom glass measurements.
Installation Guide
Measure your shower opening carefully to confirm it falls within the 44 to 48 in. width range before starting assembly.
Utilize the wall profiles to adjust for any out-of-plumb conditions, ensuring the frame remains plumb and level.
Secure the solid brass pivots according to the manual instructions to guarantee smooth, balanced door movement.
Check the full-length magnetic latch alignment to ensure a secure and watertight seal when closed.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing: Rinse the clear glass panels with clean water after each shower to prevent soap scum buildup.
Squeegee Use: Wipe down the glass surfaces with a squeegee to maintain a spot-free, clear finish.
Glass Cleaner: Clean the 1/4 in. glass using a non-abrasive glass cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth.
