Installation steps 1. Measure the distance of the back wall of W the tub from corner to corner. Record this measurement as “W”. (Fig 1) W W Fig 1 2. Divide the “W” measurement in half (W/2). W/2 Draw a plumb line to mark the center of the back wall (Fig 2) ©2017 DreamLine.
3. Measure the side walls from the corner to the front point where the Side Panel (#01) will be trimmed to size. Record this measurement as “D”. (Fig 3) D D Fig 3 Draw plumb Vertical Reference lines 1” from the corners 4a. Measure 1” from the corners and draw plumb, ©2017 DreamLine. All Rights Reserved vertical reference lines on the walls at both corners.
4b. Measure the location of the holes on the wall S = (D-1”) where the fixtures will be installed. Use these measurements to drill the cutouts in the corresponding Side Panel (#01) in Step #17. 1" A back Take exact measurements: corner of walls • from the vertical reference line to the center of the fixture holes: (A, B, C, G) • from the tub deck up to the center of the fixture holes: (E, F, H).
5. Place the Center Cover (#05) vertically on the back wall centerline (from Step#2) and mark the drilling holes through the predrilled holes in the Center Cover (#05). Drill the holes using a Ø5/16” drill bit and insert the Wall Anchors (#06). (Fig 5a and Fig 5b) 1 2 3 4 Ø5/16” Fig 5a Fig 5b 6. Place the Corner Cover (#04) to the corner of the wall and mark the drilling holes through the 1 2 3 4 ©2017 DreamLine. All Rights Reserved predrilled holes in the Corner Cover (#04).
1” reference line 7. Determine the finished cut size for both Back Panels (#02). centerline (If the finished overall width of the back wall= 59-1/2” from corner-to-corner, then it will not be necessary to trim the back panels. Proceed to Step #9). L NOTE: (a) = Narrow edge (3-3/8”) toward the center line on the back wall. (do not trim this edge) (b) = Wider edge (4-5/8”) toward the corner of the back wall.
8. Place the Back Panel (#02) onto a flat piece of plywood or particle board. Use a T-square and a sharp industrial knife to score along the cut lines (from the previous step) on the Back Panel (#02) and continue scoring until fully cut through the panel. (Fig 8a and Fig 8b) 2 1 L L a Fig 8a Fig 8b 9. Install the Center Cover (#05) to the center of the back wall using the Countersunk Screws ST4.2×30 (#07). Do not fully tighten the screws yet.

Fig. 6 5. Move the assembled frame to the designated position and adjust the Wall profiles (#02) so that they are tight to the walls by slightly pulling them out of the Glass Profiles (#03) if necessary. NOTE: Use a level to check the wall profiles for plumb and vertical while marking the holes for drilling. See Fig. 7 for details. Fig. 7 DUET manual Ver.
1 6. Hold the frame in the correct position, mark the drill holes on the wall through the holes on the flange of the Wall Profile (#02). Set the assembled unit aside; drill the holes in the wall using a Ø5/16” drill bit and insert the Wall anchors (#07). 3 inside Ø 5/16” outside See Fig. 8 for details. 2 4 Fig. 8 7. Apply silicone to the back of the wall profiles, into the drilled holes and to the bottom of the bottom guide rail prior to attaching to the opening.
8. Secure the Rollers (#11) to the top of the Glass door (#05). Mind the direction of the rollers. (See Fig 10.1 and Figs 11- 13) Attach the Handle brackets (#12) to the Glass doors (A & B) using the 25mm machine head screws (screw bag #12). The handle brackets should face the same direction as the roller wheels. Then secure the Handles (#06) to the Handle brackets using Round head screw ST4.2×25 (screw bag #12) and cover the holes with the decorative bracket covers provided. (Fig 10.
B Fig. 12 9. From inside of the shower, install the outside Glass door (A) (#05) first, as shown in Fig 13.1 and 13.2. Then install the inside Glass door (B) (#05) making sure that the rollers are aligned in the Upper guide rail (#01) as shown.
