Place one of the wall jambs [D] against the wall

with the bottom end 3/16" from the raised side of the

curb [A]. Plumb the jamb and mark the hole locations

on the wall. Repeat for the other wall jamb. Remove

all parts and drill the walls for mounting hardware.

For tile or marble walls, drill six 3/16" diameter holes

and insert the plastic wall anchors [E].

Attachments to fiberglass or acrylic units can be made

in two ways. If a reinforcement is built into the wall

of unit, drill six 1/8" holes and install mounting screws

directly into the reinforcement. If walls are not

reinforced, drill 3/16" holes and install plastic wall

anchors or toggle bolts (toggle bolts not supplied by

(Alumax).

Replace each wall jamb and attach them to the wall

with three #8 x 1 1/2" truss head screws [K].

Slide the strike jamb [H] over one of the mounted

wall jambs [D] with the magnet facing outward.

Measure the wall-to-wall opening at the top and at the

bottom of the wall jambs and note the smaller

dimension. Measure the entire width of the door panel

[B] from the outside edge of the side rail to the edge of

the glass on the strike side. Add 2 1/4" to the door

width, subtract the total from the minimum wall-to-

wall opening and divide the result by two. This should

be the distance from the wall to the strike jamb at the

closest point. Plumb the strike jamb vertically and

mark its location on the wall jamb with a pencil.

Inside the shower enclosure, drill two 1/8"

holes thru the strike jamb [H] and into the wall jamb

[D] 3/8" to 3/4" from the wall and approximately 1"

vertically from each end of the strike jamb. Drill a

third hole centered between the first two, then enlarge

the three outer holes with a 3/16" drill for clearance on

the self-tapping screws. Attach the strike jamb

permanently with three #6 x 3/8" pan head screws

[G].
