SAFETY
● Handle glass with great care. Although the glass is very tough, sharp impacts can damage both the
glass and metal frame.
●Make sure there are no hidden pipes or cables hidden in the wall where you intend to drill.
● Wear safety goggles, shoes and appropriate clothing.
●If you have long hair, tie it back out of the way.
BEFORE INSTALLATION
● This instruction leaflet must be used in conjunction with the instruction supplied with your shower
door. (A swing door shown in the example here).
●Check that the shower tray is level in all directions.The enclosure will not sit correctly on an uneven
surface. If uneven, the wall channels may not fit and the doors may not shut correctly.
●The enclosure should be fitted on tiled walls which are sealed with waterproof grout.
●There must be a good silicone seal between the rim of the shower tray and the wall.
● The shower tray and the enclosure must match in size. Attempting to fit the incorrect size of enclosure
to the shower tray will result in water leaks.

Cleaning and Maintenance
After each use the glass should be wiped down with a window squdgee and the framework wiped dry. This will reduce the build up
of limescale and water marks on the glass and framework. DO NOT use bleach, scouring powders, solvents or other aggressive
cleaning agents which may damage the framework.
To ensure the doors continue, the top and bottom runners should be lubricated regulary. This should be done using a silicone wipe,
These can be purchased from Customer Care if required.
In some instances mould spores may build up under the glazing seal of the unit. The mould spores are most commonly black or
red in colour. It is possible for a qualified person to remove the glazing seal to clean and replace. Please contact Customer Care for
advice. Mould build up is not covered by the guarentee.
Toughened Safety Glass is twice as strong as untoughened glass. However it is still possible for it to shatter. Care should be taken
when opening and closing the door panels so not to stress the glass.
Stressed glass may shatter at anytime and not necassarily at the time of stress.

Place wall channels on tray and against the wall where marked and ensure they are vertical. Both wall
channels should be set an equal distance back from the front of the tray. Failure to do this will put twist
into the enclosure and prevent the doors from closing correctly. Place masking tape against the wall before
marking the drill hole positions. This will prevent the drill bit slipping. Drill 6.5mm holes - 30mm deep and
insert wall plugs.

Clean shower tray of dust and debris after drilling and seal gap between the tray surface and tiles. It is
important the tray is sealed right to the tray edge so that sealant is behind the bottom of the wall channel.
Failure to do this will cause water to leak under the wall channel and between the tray and tiles. resulting in
damp patches on the wall and under the tray. Apply sealant to the back of wall channels. Fix to wall using
32mm screws.
