Caution: The most fragile parts of tempered glass panels are the corners. Therefore,
it is critical you have the rubber blocks in place so the glass never touches the tile
surface you are installing onto. Please make sure the glass is always on cardboard
packaging or rubber blocks while out of the packaging prior/during install. Rubber
block is provided in your hardware pack however you can use wood, cardboard or
other rubber products to protect against breakage.
Aention installer: A light haze or smudging may be present on the coated glass
panels upon delivery. This is easily removed with denatured or isopropyl alcohol and
a good quality microfiber cloth, followed by a rinse of water. This can be done before
or aer installation.

mold resistant silicone which can be purchased at
your local hardware store.
Measure and mark the fixed panel location.
Use a level and mark a line up the wall and along the
floor. This is your center line for the clips. The two lines
in the diagram above represent equal measurements.
Please note that these instructions show the Fixed
Panel and Slider Panel on the le hand side and the
Return Panel on the right hand side, but this enclosure
is completely reversible and can be installed with the
Fixed Panel and Slider Panel on the right hand side.

A70" from the floor, up the vertical line.
B8" from the floor, up the vertical line.

Fix anchors and clips.
Using a hammer, carefully insert the green wall and
floor anchors. Trim any excess from the plug hanging
out of hole so your clips can sit flush to wall and floor.
Place clips over holes and drill in screws to secure the
clips. Make sure these are securely tightened.
Drill the holes for clips to fix to the wall and floor.
Using a ¼" tile drill bit, drill the three marked holes on
the wall and floor.
If the shower base is tiled, use the same ¼" tile drill bit to
drill the third hole on the shower floor.
If the shower base is fiberglass, use a ⅛" drill bit for the
floor hole. You will not use the green wall anchor but
rather screw the floor clip directly into fiberglass base.
Important: There is a stamp on the corner of all Glass Warehouse glass panels to certify it is
tempered safety glass. We recommend installing the Fixed Panel with the stamp in the corner
closest to the wall. Note: the stamp is baked on during the tempering process
and cannot be removed.
Set the Return Panel in place.
Place the ⅛" rubber block on the floor 3" from the wall.
Place a ⁄" rubber block inside the floor clip. Rubber
blocks are not required in the wall clips.
Carefully place the Return Panel on the rubber blocks
and slot it into the wall clips. Partially tighten screws.
Use a level on the outer-edge to ensure the fixed panel
is level and in line.

Tip: Use additional rubber blocks on
either existing blocks to raise/drop
the Fixed Panel if required.
Place Slider Panel inside shower.
Place Slider Panel inside the shower on cardboard
to protect the boom of door. Be sure to face handle
holes toward Return Panel. This will make it easier for
installation at later stage once Fixed Panel and bar has
been set in place.

Mark the threshold and Fixed Panel wall.
This model needs a minimum threshold of 2 ⁄" to be
installed properly. Measure the width of your Return
Panel minus ⁄" and mark it on the threshold. Draw a level
line up the wall at this point where the Fixed Panel
will be placed. You will need at least 2 5/8" threshold
width from this line to the inside of the showerenclosure.
Tip: We recommend using a pencil
so this can be easily removed.
