Using the pan and wall panels, you will be able to check to make sure your 2 x 4 studs are in the needed
position and supported adequately. You will see in (dia. 2) extra 2 x 4 studs are added to the door and glass side
thresholds for extra strength. You may need to make adjustments for your a shampoo shelf. When you place the
bottom sections of the wall into the shower pan, you can also calculate the needed width and height of areas
to keep free of 2 x 4 studs. (See installation instructions for shampoo shelf) This is also when you should add your extra
support bracing for those who need them for your other accessories such as the shower valve, grab bars,
benches or shelves.
3/4” overhang when using triple studs, no overhang
when using double studs (double studs required, triple
studs recommended for extra-strength)
