Installation Guide

Corner Soap Dish Installation
The soap dish is a corner mount design. The soap dishes can
be stacked in one corner or placed in opposite corners.
Note: The soap dish is molded with a square corner, as shown
in the illustrations. This shape requires installation of the
optional corner molding after installation of the soap dish.
1. Select a desirable height for mounting one or both soap
dishes.
2. After marking the height, draw a 4 inch level line on both
walls. These lines will be used to align the top edges of
the soap dish.
3. Dry fit the soap dish prior to applying clear silicone. The
soap dish may require sanding to fit precisely in the
corner. The actual angle of the soap dish is slightly greater
than 90 degrees to accommodate some adjustment. If
necessary, mark and sand the side(s) of the soap dish to
achieve a proper fit, using a coarse grit (60 grit)
sandpaper.
4. Apply silicone to the edge of the soap dish.
Note: Either clear or color matched silicone can be used for
attaching the soap dish.
5. Align the soap dish with the level lines and press it into place.
6. Hold the soap dish securely in place and wipe off excess
silicone. You will want a uniform bead on both top and bottom.
7. Temporarily secure the soap dish with masking tape, as
shown. Remove the tape after approximately two hours. Do
not place anything on the soap dish for at least 24 hours.
Corner Molding (if applicable)
Installing the corner molding is optional. If the panels were
scribed and cut to create a tight-fitting corner, then the corner
molding can be eliminated. If, however, there are gaps
between the side and rear panels, the corner molding should
be installed. Either option, if done properly, is acceptable.
If the optional soap dish was installed, cut one piece of the molding
to fit above the soap dish and one for below the soap dish.
Note: Either clear or color matched silicone can be used to
install corner molding strips. If the kit is supplied with
corner moldings, it will contain enough silicon (clear or
color matched) to install the corner molding strips.
1. Measure and cut the corner moldings to length.
