Preparation

NOTE: DO NOT install the towel bars on the glass until instructed to do so.

DO NOT lift the glass using the towel bars. This could result in damage to the glass and/or

serious personal injury. Always use an assistant or a professional grade glass suction cup when

handling heavy glass.

1. Prior to installation, examine all boxes and packages for shipping damage and compare the piece count with

your packing slip. After opening all boxes and packages read this introduction carefully. Check that all of the

needed parts are included in the package by checking off the components on the “Detailed Diagram of Shower

Door Components”. If the unit has been damaged, has a finishing defect, or has missing parts, please contact our

customer support department within 3 business days of the delivery date. Please note that DreamLine

will

not replace any damaged products or missing parts free of charge after 3 business days or if the product

has been installed. Feel free to contact DreamLine

if you have any questions and please provide an order

number, job name or other proof of purchase to help identify the original order.

2. Please note that you should consult your local building codes with questions on installation compliance

standards. Building and plumbing codes may vary by location, and DreamLine

is not responsible for code

compliance standards for your project and will not accept any returns.

3. If this unit is going to be installed in a new construction, please install all of the required plumbing and

drainage before installing the shower. Use a competent and licensed (if required by local code) plumber for all

plumbing installation.

4. Please make sure that prior to beginning the installation, the surfaces are leveled and solid and will be able to

support the total weight of the unit. Also make sure the walls are at right angles. Irregular installation surface

level, radius corners or improper angle of side walls will result in serious problems for your installation. Please,

note that some adjustments and drilling might be necessary during the installation process.

5. Please protect all primary surfaces of the product during installation. Never set your glass down directly onto a

tile floor. Leave corner protectors in place until necessary to remove them. Always use a piece of wood or

cardboard to protect the bottom edge and corners of the glass prior to and during installation.

6. This unit must be installed upon a finished threshold and against finished walls.

7. This model can accommodate up to 1/4“ of out-of-plumb by adjusting the rollers on the door glass. See

Page # 24 for details. Use a level to verify that your walls are within 1/4” of plumb before proceeding with the

installation.

8. Threshold must be level for proper installation.

9. NOTE: This model requires a minimum 3-1/4” of flat threshold space for the wall profiles and 2-3/4” of

flat threshold space for the center guide block. See Fig 3 on Page #9.

10. This model requires drilling into the threshold for proper installation.
