No glass showers and the hinged door side showers use the

The panel side of hinged door showers use CP side casings & cap. (dia. 9B)9B)
Sliding door showers use CD & CP as shown in diagram 9c.
To help with the side casing installation, use a level and draw a plumb line
from the inside of the pan threshold up to the top of the shower. Do this on
both sides. This will be where the side casings and the wall panels meet and
will give you a visual reference point when dry-fitting your wall panels.
Apply 100% silicone, using a circular pattern, to the cement board along the
plumb line, approximately 4" wide to the edge of the shower pan. (dia. 10)
Place the first side casing into position making sure to align the side casing
with the vertical plumb line previously drawn on the cement board. Apply
pressure to the side casing to bond it to the cement board. The side casing
will be flush with the inside of the shower pan threshold and have a small gap
where the pan threshold slopes. (dia. 11) You can shim the gap if needed.
Make sure to align any channels. For sliding door insert plug. (dia. 11a)
Place the remaining side casings into position, 3 per side and cap. Use a level
and the plumb line previously drawn on the cement board to align the side
casings vertically.

No glass showers have 2 threshold pieces
T D
(dia. 6A & 7 top)
Hinged glass showers have 1 door threshold piece TD and one glass
channel threshold T P
(dia. 6A & 6B & 7 middle)
Sliding glass showers have left and right TS style thresholds (dig. 7 bottom) Dry
fit thresholds onto the front of the pan. The door threshold does not have a
channel in it. The door rail is reversible and can be placed on the left or right.
(dia. 6A & 6B)
Remove and apply 100% silicone in the pan where the thresholds sits, in
between each side, under and in front of the thresholds themselves. (This is
your water seal, use a continuous bead and apply silicone generously.) Then re-
install thresholds onto pan and press firmly in place. There may be a small
gap between the bottom of thresholds and the floor, this can be grouted
later if it is still exposed after installing bathroom floor.
