Hold the Wall Plate (#15.6) to the marks on the wall. Check for level and mark the holes for drilling through the wider, untapped holes. (Fig 6.2) Drill two Ø5/16” (8mm) holes and insert the Ø5/16” Wall Anchors (#15.5).
8. Adjust the Hinge Panel Glass (#01) to plumb and tighten the screws. Attach the Decorative Cover (#15.4). Secure the L-Bar™ (#15.3) to the top of the Hinge Panel Glass (#01) using the clear gasket and rubber-tipped set screws. Do Not Overtighten!

9. Attach the Hinges (#06) to the Hinge Panel Glass (#01) (with the bolts facing inside the shower). Use at least one gasket per side.

Level up the Door Glass (#02) next to the Hinge Panel Glass (#01) and fasten the hinges onto the Door Glass (#02). Make sure the top edges of the Door Glass (#02) and both Glass Panels are flush and level.
NOTE: DO NOT attach the handle to the door glass or the towel bar to the panel glass until instructed. DO NOT use the handle or towel bar to lift the glass during installation.
