/4” FRAMELESS DOOR WITH INLINE PANEL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS QCI5029 Rev 0 Page 1 Certified 06/21/2016
MAINTENANCE: Two primary materials are used to manufacture your new shower enclosure: tempered glass and anodized aluminum. To assure a long lasting finish on the enclosure, wipe it down with a towel after each use. Never use a scouring agent to clean the aluminum. For occasional, more concentrated cleaning efforts, we find that Lysol Bathroom Cleaner works extremely well. Be sure that any over spray falling on the aluminum frame is rinsed thoroughly and dried.

1 The frameless continuous hinge shower enclosure is completely reversible and may be installed swing-left or swing-right. The door may hinge from the wall or from the center-post. For maximum waterproofing, the hinge jamb should always be opposite the shower head. Using the illustration, determine the correct position for the door in your particular installation. This instruction sheet depicts a hinge-right installation.
4 Wipe the shower walls and sill, the curb [A] and the wall jambs [B] with a clean, dry cloth to remove any dust or debris. Apply a 1/4” bead of caulk along the inside of both of the pencil lines marked in Step #2. Carefully replace the curb in the exact position marked. Caulk the inside of the curb ends where they meet the wall. Replace both wall jambs and attach to the walls with six #8 x 1 1/2” truss head screws [D].
7 Press the header [H] over the wall jambs [B] and the 180° post [G]. Plumb the post, moving it laterally as required to maintain proper coverage on the fixed glass panel [F]. The minimum horizontal dimension for the door opening is the door panel width (see illustration in Step #8) plus 1/2”, maximum if the door panel width plus 1 ¾”. Using the holes in the ends of the header and curb as a guide, drill four 1/8” holes into the wall jambs.
10 Slide the door [I] magnet onto the strike edge of the door panel. Close the door and slide the handle up or down until the two magnetic strips are aligned. Use a pencil or masking tape the mark the location of the magnet on the door. STRIKE JAMB MAGNETIC LATCH VINYL Slip the vinyl material onto the door between the marks and carefully drive the door magnet on the door panel. Trim excess vinyl material off with a utility knife.
13 Align the deflector [Q] to the bottom of the door with the hinge side notch over lapping the hinge, then mark the strike side even with the door edge cut deflector at that point. INTERIOR 14 Place the deflector onto the bottom of the door and from inside the shower, close the door and mark the deflector at the edge of the strike jamb. Open the door and remove the deflector. Notch the inside portion of the deflector so the door will close to the strike jamb.
Cut four pieces of the smaller vinyl [HH] 1” longer than the vertical opening (to prevent gapping from shrinkage) and trim the ends on a 45° angle. Using the masking tape guides, center the glass panel [F] in the frame. Cut four short (1” – 2”) pieces of the small vinyl and press into the jamb and post on each side to hold the glass temporarily.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS – ACCESSORIES Combination Door Pull and Towel Bar Installation Instructions There are eleven hardware components for Combination Door Pull and Towel Bar mounting: Six 11/4” style washers; one towel bar; one pull; two end caps with threaded studs; one stud head screw. In addition to these hardware parts, there are six clear gaskets th at act as a buffer between the hardware and the glass. STEP 1 Take the stud head screw and sleeve a 11/4” style washer on it.
Back-To-Back Door Pull or Towel Bar Mounting Instructions There are six hardware components for back-to-back mounting: two pulls and four 1-1/4” diameter style washers. In addition to these hardware parts, there are four clear gaskets and two stud head screws. A decision must be made at this time as to the location of the half of the pull that contains the set screws. Most put the set screws to the outside of the enclosure, so they are not exposed to direct water contact.
