Never attempt to do so.
IMPORTANT Verify that the overall size of the shower door opening is appropriate for the shower enclosure. Due to individual site variations, exact guidelines for every situation cannot be supplied. The recommended framing and dimensional requirements are shown for a typical application and may vary depending on the site requirements. To prevent damage to the finish, you should protect the shower cabin bottom with a cardboard protector before beginning the installation.
