This model is treated with DreamLine’s

exclusive ClearMaxTM Glass technology.

This is a specially formulated coating

that prevents the build up of soap and

water spots.

Install the surface with the ClearMaxTM

label towards the inside of the shower.

Please note that depending on the

model, the glass may be coated on

either one or both surfaces.

For best results, squeegee the glass after

each use and dry with a soft cloth.

NOTE: Do Not attach the handle to the door glass until instructed to do so.

Do Not attempt to lift the door glass with the handle as this may result in damage to

the glass and/or serious personal injury. Use a professional grade glass suction cup

and an assistant.

NOTE: This model is available as a right or left-hand bracket installation. The left-hand bracket

installation is shown as an example throughout this manual.

during installation.

6. This unit must be installed upon a finished threshold and against finished walls.

7. This model has 1/2” of adjustment within the u-channel on the stationary panel side for

out-of-plumb wall conditions and overall width within the model size. Confirm the finished opening

conditions before proceeding with the installation.

8. The hinge panel glass for this model should not be adjusted more than 1/4” for

out-of-plumb within the u-channel. This model does NOT have any adjustment for overall width.

Verify that the model size ordered will fit the finished opening before begining installation.

NOTE: Do Not attach the handle to the door glass until instructed to do so. Do Not attempt to lift the

door glass with the handle as this may result in damage to the glass and/or serious personal injury. Use

a professional grade glass suction cup and an assistant.

10. Attach the Hinges (#05) to the Hinge Panel glass

(#32) with the decorative bolts facing inside the shower.

The Door Glass (#01) ships with four 5/8” shims attached

to the top (2pcs) and bottom (2pcs). Determine the swing

of the door. Remove the shims from the top of the door

glass and leave the bottom shims in place. Set the Door

Glass (#01) onto the threshold or tub deck at the desired

location and check for level. These 5/8” shims will leave

the proper spacing at the bottom of the door glass and

will ensure that the door height finishes at 58” to match

the installed panel height, but always confirm with a

measurement.

Level up the Door Glass (#01) with the Hinge Panel

glass (#32) and fasten the hinges onto the Door Glass

(#01) using one gasket per side. Make sure the top edge

of the Door Glass (#01) and the Hinge Panel glass (#32)

are aligned. (Fig 10 & 11)

NOTE: During installation of the Hinge Panel Glass (#32), it is strongly recommended that the

silicone be allowed to fully cure before hanging the door glass.

** NOTE: It is strongly advisable to allow the silicone

to set on the hinge panel glass connection with the

U-channel before hanging the door glass. Leave the

shims in place beneath the door glass while the

silicone cures, especially if an out-of-plumb wall

condition is present (not to exceed 1/4”). (Fig 11)

11. With the door closed, align the door parallel to

the front edge of the tub deck. Hold the door glass in

place and mark its position on the tub deck.

Product Maintenance

BASES and BACKWALLS: To ensure long lasting life for your acrylic back walls: wipe them off

after each use with a soft cloth. To clean the acrylic back walls use non-abrasive sprays or cream

based cleaners. Avoid the use of aerosol spray cleaners. Never use abrasive cleansers, metal

brushes or scrapers that could scratch or dull the surface.

GLASS: To ensure long lasting life for your glass shower products: wipe them off after each use

with a soft cloth. Rinse and wipe off the glass using either a soft cloth or a squeegee to prevent

soap buildup and water spots (Hard water can etch the surface of the glass over time if left to

dry). To prevent scratching the surface: never use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products that

contain scouring agents. Never use bristle brushes or abrasive sponges that may scratch the

surface.

HARDWARE: To ensure a long lasting finish: wipe off the metal parts after each use with a soft

cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products containing ammonia, bleach or acid. If

accidentally used, rinse the surface as soon as possible to prevent damage to the finish (peeling

or corrosion). After cleaning the polished finishes, rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with soft cloth.

Clean stainless steel surfaces at least once a week. When applying stainless steel cleaner or

polish to stainless steel hardware, work with (not across) the grain. Never use an abrasive

sponge or cloth, steel wool or wired brush as these may permanently scratch the surfaces.

NOTE: To maximize the life of your door, it is important to regularly inspect

the glass and other hardware for misalignment, proper attachment, and/or

damage. Contact DreamLine with any questions or concerns.
