Starting off -

• Measure the inside area for the shower door first and then transfer the measurement to the track.
• Using a hacksaw cut the track 1/16″ shorter for an easier fit. Use a miter box for straight edges. You may need to round off the corners with a file if your shower has rounded corners.
• Center the track in place on the shower or bathtub sill, and secure it with tape.
• Snap the side rails into place and don’t forget to use a level to check for plumb
• Mark the holes for mounting the jambs, along the both sides of the curb.

Mounting the Door Frame -

• Now, remove the curb and jambs.
• Drill the mounting holes, using a 3/16″ drill bit. Mark the holes with an awl to make a dimple for your drill bit. You will need a tile-cutting bit for tile walls.
• Tap the plastic wall anchors into place. Wipe any remaining dust from the work surface.
• Apply caulking inside the lines for the track, and set the track in place. The track has weep holes on one side for draining. Try to keep them on the inside of the shower.
• Set one side rail into place, and secure it to the wall with screws. Slide the header onto the other side rail, and slide the other end of the header onto the rail on the wall.

Installing the Door -

• Install the rollers on the door by screwing them into place. The doors hang from these rollers and allow them to slide along the track. They are installed in diagonal slots so they can be easily adjusted.
• Install the inside door closest to the showerhead. This prevents water from leaking through the gap and dripping onto the floor.
• Set the bottom of the door into the shower area. Push the top part into the track letting it hang from the rollers. Then, hang the second door and push both doors to one side. Set the center guide in place, and drill a pilot hole through the side of the tub. Secure the guide with a screw.
• Place rubber bumpers over the screws in the side rails.
• Attach the handrail to the door.
• Caulk the corners where the sides meet the wall and where the track meets the sill.
