1 Determine location of the unit centerline on the threshold. Mark a continuous centerline on both walls starting where the threshold centerline meets the wall. Use a level to ensure the wall centerline is plumb and straight. The wall centerline should be a minimum of the unit height from the threshold.
2 Place a Wall Jamb on each wall. Align the Wall Jamb with the marked centerline running through the pre-drilled holes. Use a level to confirm the Wall Jamb is plumb. Mark the hole locations. If custom size door, make sure the correct end of the wall jamb is towards the top. The correct topside will have the hole 4-7/16” from the edge. Centerline visible in pre-drilled holes of Wall Jamb PRO-TIP: The top of the wall jambs come with round edges.
3 Drill the 6 marked locations. Drill holes as described on page 4 4 Insert the SCV960 Hold Downs on the bottom of the Wall Jambs, slide it up to about 1 inch below the predrilled hole, and use tape to temporarily hold them up and keep them out of the way.
5 Set the Wall Jambs in place. Secure with 6 SCR10 Wall Jamb Screws. Install 4 SC4259 Bumpers, 1 each on top and bottom screws. If required, be sure to install wall plugs before securing wall jambs. See page 4 6 Measure the Wall-to-Wall distance at the top of the Wall Jambs. Record the measurement [T]:_________” 7 Subtract 1/2” from the measurement [T]. [T] - 1/2” = _____________” [HC] Cut the Header to length [HC].
8 Slide the Header Mount Brackets into each side of the Header. Temporarily tighten the mount screw on one side. This is now the Header Assembly. 9 Lower the Header Assembly into the Wall Jambs, being sure the Header Mount Brackets slide into the grooves of the Wall Jamb. Rest the Header Assembly on the top Bumpers.
10 Use a 4’ level to check the Header Assembly for level. To level the header, lift only 1 side from the Top Bumper. Mark the location of the Header Mount Brackets on the Wall Jambs. 11 Remove the Header Assembly from the Wall Jambs.
12 Slide the Header Mount Brackets into each Wall Jamb. The 3 holes face Inside the Shower. Mark from Step 10 Align the Header Mount Brackets with the mark made in STEP 10. Mark the locations of the mounting slots as shown. Be sure the mounting holes are to the inside of the shower PRO-TIP: Make the holes near the top of the adjustment slots. If they are drilled accurately this will prevent the header from slipping out of adjustment in the future.
15 Reassemble the Header and Header Mount Brackets. Re-insert the Header Assembly into the Wall Jambs. 16 Install the SCR02 Header Mount Screws from STEP 14. Re-check the header for level. Make any final adjustments and secure the screws. DO NOT use a power tool to prevent stripping the holes.
17 Using the provided Allen Wrench, tighten both Header Set Screws. 18 Measure the Threshold Width [TW]: __________ SUBTRACT 5/8” Cut the Curb Length [CL] to:___________ 19 If the Silencer Vinyl was not already inserted, slide the SCV190 Silencer Vinyl into the Track. Trim to length. This is the Track.
20Apply a 3/16” bead of silicone in the two grooves of the bottom side of the Track for the entire length of the track. 21 Carefully put the Track into place on the threshold.
22 Un-tape the Hold Downs and slide them to clamp down on the Track tightly. Then insert and tighten the SCR30 Screw into the Hold Down. The Screw will push against the Wall Jamb and keep the Hold Down in place. 23 Install the rollers on the outer panel. The rollers will be on the inside of the shower. -The rollers are mounted to adjustable cams. Install them with the rollers at the lowest position. -Temporarily install the anti-jumps parallel to the floor. -Only snug the screws for now.
24A Install the rollers on the inner panel. The rollers will be on the outside of the shower. -The rollers are mounted to adjustable cams. Install them with the rollers at the lowest position. -Only snug the screws for now. NOTE: There are small part numbers on each part of the roller. All of them will face the glass.
24B Install the rollers on the inner panel. MAKE SURE TO REPLACE THE INNER ROLLER SCREW WITH THE SC5118 Screw. The rollers will be on the outside of the shower. -The rollers are mounted to adjustable cams. Install them with the rollers at the lowest position. -Only snug the screws for now. NOTE: There are small part numbers on each part of the roller. All of them will face the glass.
25 To prevent scratching the header during glass installation, apply masking tape to the front face of the header. 26 Lift the Inner Panel Assembly into place and be sure the rollers are in the track. Slide the Panel to 1 wall. It is easiest to set the glass near the middle of the header. The glass is not secure yet. Do not leave unattended. Moving it may cause the glass to fall. Side View 27 Lift the Outer Panel Assembly into place. Set the rollers in their grooves on the top of the header.
28 Slightly loosen the screws in both Outer Panel Roller Assemblies. Turn the Anti-Jump to vertical to latch them to the Header Assembly. It maybe necessary to press the Door Assembly towards the header at the roller locations. Retighten the screws after adjusting the Anti-Jump. View from Inside Adjust the Anti-Jump to latch seat under the lip on the header 29 Push the Outer Panel to the same side as the Inner Panel. Slide the Bottom Guide between the panels and center it along the length of the Track.
30 Fasten the SCR30 (2) screws to the Track Assembly through the Bottom Guide. 31 Carefully move each panel to its closed position. As required, slightly loosen the screws in each roller to adjust each panel. The panels should contact both bumpers on the wall they close against. After adjustment for gaps at the walls, final tighten the screws in each roller. 32 Header Cut Length [HC]:__________” From STEP 7 Subtract : 1/2” Anti Jump Length [AJ]:_______” Cut the Anti-Jump Vinyl to length [AJ].
33 Push the inner panel to 1 wall. Slide 1 piece of Anti-Jump Vinyl behind the inner panel. Near the other wall, begin snapping the Anti-Jump Vinyl onto the Header. For best results, leave 1/4” between the end of the header and the Anti-Jump Vinyl. Continue snapping the vinyl onto the header towards the center of the unit. SNAP ANTI-JUMP VINYL ONTO LIP OF HEADER AS SHOWN 34 Repeat for the other Anti-Jump Vinyl piece. Push the inner panel to the other wall.
35 The Inner Panel Rollers and outer portion of the Outer Panel Rollers use the same caps. They snap on. If they do not snap, use a small amount of silicone to hold them in place. 36 The Inner Covers for the Outer Panel Rollers slide down and snap into place.
37 If ordered with a finger pull, install the Finger Pull. The longer side faces away from the other panel of glass CAUTION Installing the long side of the knob toward the other panel will lead to breaking 1 or both pieces of glass. Be sure to install the long side of the knob away from the other panel! 38 If ordered with a towel bar, install the Towel Bar on the Outer Panel. It is installed facing away from the other panel. 39 Carefully remove any masking tape used during installation.
40 Apply a small continuous bead of silicone where the walls and threshold meet the metal of the shower door (Track and Wall Jamb). Be sure to silicone the inside and outside perimeter of the door. NOTE: DO NOT USE the shower until the silicone is completely cured. Check the tube of silicone for the manufacturer recommended cure time (typically 24 - 48 hours).
