In this instruction booklet we will walk you through the
installation of your new shower door.
DO NOT REMOVE your existing shower door until you
check your new shower door kit for all the proper parts.
Make sure that you have all the proper tools required to
assemble your new shower door. Use the check list below.
Use a level to check that the sill/shower dam is reasonably
level - not more than 1/4″ out of level from side to side.
Check the walls for levelness - not more than 1/4″ out of
level from top to bottom. If it is out of level more than that,
you may need to order custom wall jambs.
Tools you will need:
Phillips Screwdriver
Level
Electric Drill
1/8″ Drill Bit (for fiberglass stall)
3/16″ Masonry Drill Bit (for tile stall)
7/64″ Drill Bit
Fine File
Miter Box and Hacksaw with 32 Teeth/Inch Blade
Pliers
Pencil
Hammer
Caulking Gun - Tube of Clear Tub/Tile Silicone
Tape Measure
Safety Glasses
Scissors
CAUTION: Wear safety glasses whenever drilling or cutting.
Handle the Door Panel carefully. The corners of the panel
can damage tile and floor coverings. Tempered glass
cannot be cut.
STEP 1 Checking Contents Of
Shower Door Package
DO NOT use a razor blade to cut open the paper wrapping
as you may scratch the contents. Use the IPB Drawing to
help you locate the following parts:

If you find that any parts are damaged or missing,
refer to the parts list and IPB Drawing and contact
Contractors Wardrobe®’s Customer Service Department
at 661-257-1177. NOTE: Views and directions given in
these instructions — left, right, front, back, etc. — are
from outside of the enclosure, facing the shower.
STEP 2 Removing the Existing Enclosure
(If this is a new installation, skip to Step 3)
After determining that your newly purchased enclosure kit
is the correct size, remove the existing shower door and
all existing parts of that door assembly. Remove all screw
anchors from the wall. Clean silicone sealant or shower
caulking and any other contaminants from shower and wall
surfaces.
STEP 3 Installing the Bottom Curb/Sill
and Wall Jamb
1. Using the Tape Measure, find the center of the shower
dam. Make a mark where the center is at both ends of the
dam (See Figure 1).
2. Cut the Sill Spacer (#15) to In-Line Glass Panel (#25)
width minus 1-1/2″. Cut another piece this size for the
Header (#1). Place the Sill Spacer (#15) into the groove of
the Bottom Curb/Sill (#2) (See Figure 2).

I06000H-180-0704
3. If this unit is being installed in a fiberglass pan, cut the
Bottom Curb/Sill (#2) and Wall Jambs (#6) at a slight angle
(about 45°) where they meet to accommodate the rounded
corners of the pan (See Figure 3).
4. Place and align the Bottom Curb/Sill (#2) on the curb
of the shower.
5. Insert the Wall Jamb (#6) and Slip Jamb Male (#5) (See
IPB Drawing) into the Bottom Curb/Sill (#2) and level. Mark
and drill installation holes (the Wall Jamb (#6) and the Slip
Jamb Male (#5) come pre-drilled). Remove the Wall Jamb
(#6) and Slip Jamb Male (#5).
NOTE: Before siliconing the Bottom Curb/Sill (#2)
to the Shower Dam, make sure the surface is
completely free of dirt or any other contaminants to
ensure proper adhesion.
6. Apply an abundant amount of Silicone to the underside of
the Bottom Curb/Sill (#2), for the entire length (See Figure 4),
position on shower dam (with the weep holes facing towards
the inside of the shower).
7. Insert the Wall Jamb (#6) and Slip Jamb Male (#5) into
the Bottom Curb/Sill (#2). Secure the Wall Jamb (#6) with
#8 x 1-1/2″ PH SMS (#20) Screws (For tile, use Screw
Anchors (#21)). Repeat these steps using the Slip Jamb
Male (#5) on the side where the door will hinge from. Apply
Silicone where the Bottom Curb/Sill (#2) meets the Wall
Jamb (#6), Slip Jamb Male (#5) and the wall.
Figure 3
STEP 4 Installing the In-Line Glass Panel
1. Place the two Setting Blocks (#16) into the Bottom
Curb/Sill (#2) (See Figure 5). Place the In-Line Glass Panel
(#25) into the Bottom Curb/Sill (#2) on top of the Setting
Blocks (#16).
2. Place the Insert Jamb (#3) into the Bottom Curb/Sill
(#2) and over the In-Line Glass Panel (#25). Cut a 2″
strip of Vertical Press-In Vinyl (#18). Level the Insert Jamb
(#3) and temporarily secure 6″ down from the top in
between the glass and the Insert Jamb (#3) with temporary
Vertical Press-In Vinyl (#18) on the outside of the enclosure
(See Figure 6). (Optional: You may also use another 2″
strip of temporary vinyl on the door side of the In-Line Glass
Panel (#25), 6” down from the top.)
STEP 5 Cutting the
Header to
size
Note: The Header (#1)
comes in a longer length
and needs to be cut to size
to accommodate out-
of-square conditions.
1. Measure the distance
between the walls at the
top then cut the Header
(#1) to this dimension
(See Figure 7).

STEP 6 Installing the Sill Spacer
1. Place the Sill Spacer (#15) into the groove of the
Header (#1).
STEP 7 Installing the Header and Snap-In
Pivot Strip
1. Place the Header (#1) over the vertical pieces of metal,
as shown in Figure 8.
2. Drill assembly holes with a 7/64″ Drill Bit into the Header
(#1) through the Slip Jamb Male (#5) and Wall Jamb (#6).
Secure at the top, on both sides using #6 x 1/4″ “B”-Point
Screws (#22) (See Figure 9).
3. Locate the Snap-In Pivot Strip (#14). Snap the Snap-In
Pivot Strip (#14) into the Header/Curb (#1). Repeat this for
the Header/Curb (#2) making sure the “raised” edge of the
Snap-In Pivot Strip (#14) is to the outside of the unit.
STEP 8 Installing and Adjusting the Door and
Insert Jamb
Installing the door panel may be easier if you have
someone to assist you.
1. Temporarily install the Framed Door with CW
® Rotary
Gear Hinge Assembly with Magnetic Seal (#4) into the Slip
Jamb Male (#5). Mark and drill three installation holes. Insert
the top, #6 x 1/4″ “B”-Point Screw (#22) only at this time
(See Figure 11). Make sure that the door is level. Secure the
CW
® Rotary Gear Hinge Assembly (#4) into the Slip Jamb
Male (#5) with the remaining two #6 x 1/4″ “B”-Point
Screws (#22).
Note: Magnetic Jamb Seal (#13) faces toward the outside
of the shower. Once installed, if you find that the door
will not stay closed, the magnet needs to be turned
around. Remove the Magnetic Jamb Seal (#13) from
the Insert Jamb (#3) and
reinsert it the other way.
2. Insert the two #8 x 1-1/2″
FH SMS Screws (#24) into
the Inside Handle (with
Holes) (#10). Push the
screws through the Door
Panel and line up with the
Outside Handle (#9).
Tighten the screws. (See
Figure 11).
3. Insert the middle
#6 x 1/4″ “B”-Point Screw
(#22) into the Slip Jamb
Male (#5). You may have
to flex the Slip Jamb Male
(#5) for proper clearance
once the door handle is in place.
4. Make sure that both the Door (#4) and the Insert Jamb
(#3) are level. Secure the Insert Jamb (#3) to the Header
(#1) with a #6 x 7/16″ “B”-Point Screw (#23). Repeat this
step securing the Insert Jamb (#3) to the Bottom Curb/Sill

STEP 9 Glazing the Vinyl into the
In-Line Panel
1. Remove the 2″ strips of temporary Vertical Press-In
Vinyl (#18) and shift In-Line Glass Panel (#25) to obtain
sufficient overlap along both horizontal and vertical edges.
2. Push in the Horizontal Press-In Vinyl (large profile) (#17)
from the outside between the glass and the Bottom Curb/Sill
(#2) and Header (#1).This task is made easier by using a
pen (as shown in Figure 12) to push the vinyl into Bottom
Curb/Sill (#2) and Header (#1). Cut square covering the
full width of the panel opening. Push the Vertical Press-In
Vinyl (small profile) (#19) from the outside between the Wall
Jamb (#6) and the Insert Jamb (#3).
STEP 10 Silicone Sealing the Enclosure
1. Using the Clear Tub/Tile Silicone, seal all edges inside
and outside where curb or walls meet the horizontal or
vertical Jambs.
2. Standing inside the enclosure, seal the In-Line Glass
Panel (#25), on the side and along the Bottom Curb/Sill
(#2) (See Figure 13).
3. CW
® uses the “Wet Glaze” technique to secure the In-
Line Glass Panel (#26) on the inside of the unit. Run the
Clear Tub/Tile Silicone in between the glass and metal,
around the entire inside perimeter (See Figures 14A and
14B). Follow manufacturer’s instructions for the sealant.
Sealant must cure for 24 hours before using shower.

STEP 11 Installing the Drip Rail
1. With a pair of scissors cut the clear Drip Rail Gasket
(#12) 2″ longer than the Drip Rail (#11). Cut a notch into
the strike side of the Drip Rail Gasket (#12) (see Figure
15). Using a lubricant (such as CW® Glass Cleaner) (see
Figure 16) slide the Drip Rail Gasket (#12) into the smaller
channel in the Drip Rail (#11), allow 1/2″ extra gasket on
the strike side (including the notch) (see Figure 17). With
Pliers, crimp both ends of the Drip Rail (#11) to secure the
Drip Rail Gasket (#12). There will be 1-1/2″ overlap on the
door side of the Drip Rail Gasket (#12) (See Figure 18).

Thank you for purchasing a CW® Shower Enclosure.
This is only one of a large line of shower enclosures
and high quality wardrobe door products. If you like
this product, please contact Contractors Wardrobe®
for more information about our many beautiful
wardrobe doors in bi-pass and bi-fold styles with steel,
aluminum and hardwood frames.
CAUTION: Since the Drip Rail (#11) will be very hard to
remove once in place, test fit and mark the Drip Rail (#11)
location before removing the protective paper from the
two-way adhesive. Be sure the Bottom Rail (#8) is clean
and free of oil or other contaminants before attaching the
Drip Rail (#11) to it.
2. Install the assembled Drip Rail (#11) at a slope to allow
water drainage to flow into the shower pan (See Figure 19).
The Drip Rail (#11) should be installed 1/2″ from the edge
of the Strike Rail (#7).
STEP 12 Cleaning the Enclosure
Clean the glass and enclosure hardware with a mild non-
abrasive cleaner designed for glass such as CW® Mirror
& Glass Cleaner. Avoid using scouring cleansers as this
will scratch and mar the beautiful finish on the enclosure.
