Understanding the Out-of-Plumb Wall Profile Adjustment
Uneven walls are one of the most common hurdles during a bathroom renovation, often leaving gaps around a shower frame. The anodized aluminum wall profiles on this enclosure feature a built-in 1/2 in. out-of-plumb adjustment on each side, acting much like leveling feet on a refrigerator. This clever adjustability allows the frame to compensate for slightly crooked walls in older homes, ensuring a square, secure fit without requiring major structural drywall repairs.

Ensure finished walls are completely in place before taking measurements for your shower opening width.
Utilize the anodized aluminum wall profiles to accommodate up to 1/2 in. of out-of-plumb adjustment on each side during setup.
Confirm all four glass panels and sliding door tracks are properly aligned and secured according to the manufacturer guidelines.
Test the full-length magnetic door latch to guarantee a smooth and water-tight seal.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing Rinse the clear tempered glass panels with clean warm water after each shower to prevent soap scum buildup.
Glass Cleaning Use a gentle, non-abrasive glass cleaner and a squeegee to maintain clear visibility on the 5/32 in. glass.
Frame Maintenance Wipe down the French black aluminum profiles and hardware with a soft, damp cloth.
Avoid Abrasives Never use harsh chemical solvents, scouring powders, or steel wool on the glass or finished metal surfaces.
