INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS - CURVED QUAD
Please read these instructions throughout before installing as incorrect fitting will invalidate the guarantee.
If you are unsure about these instructions please contact Kudos Shower Products 01539 564040.
HEALTH & SAFETY WARNING
DUE TO THE WEIGHT & SIZE OF THE GLASS PANEL(s) A MINIMUM OF TWO PERSONS ARE REQUIRED
TO MOVE AND INSTALL THIS ENCLOSURE
For the wall post and fixings use only warm soapy water and damp cloth/ sponge
on a regular basis. After cleaning please rinse with clean water to remove any
residue.
Do not use abrasive scouring powders, chemicals or aerosol cleaners - these may
result in damage to the surfaces, in particular, the plated component parts.
The glass panels are pre-treated with Life Shield on the inside surfaces only.
Whilst this makes cleaning the glass easier and helps prevent the build up of
harmful lime-scale and soap deposits, the glass still needs to be maintained on a
regular basis. We recommend the use of a detergent and aroma free glass cleaner
(A 50/50 mix of white vinegar and water works well).
DO NOT use strong detergents, abrasive cleaners or abrasive scrubbing
equipment for cleaning, these can damage the coating.
DO use a squeegee to remove remaining droplets of water from glass after
showering, any build up of residue can be removed easily using an appropriate
cleaner and agitation from soft cleaning equipment.

determine which is the
bottom edge of your
installation.
2. Use 160mm Trim Seal.
3. Peel off a small length of
the bottom trim adhesive
tape and apply to bottom of
glass panel 15mm from the
end as shown. Continue
along length of trim, peeling
away the tape as you go,
until the full trim length is
adhered to the panel.

Step 4 - Fit J-Bend Panel Glass and secure Panel using Push-in channel
Step 5 - Select Rail for bottom
1. The rails are handed to suit both left hand and right hand
access. Select the correct rail for fitting to bottom.
2. Remove the three screws that fix the inner and outer extrusion,
as shown below.
3. Very lightly loosen the mid-rail outer screws, as shown below.
Do not remove, or loosen too much that the screws could self
remove.
Step 6 - Fit Bottom Rail to J-Bend Panel
1. Carefully slide the dis-assembled rail from step 5
underneath and along the glass panel until the mid-rail
endcaps abuts the glass panel edge. Line up the 2 holes
on the rail with 2 holes on the glass. Be careful not to
dislodge any glass patches on the rail with the J-Bend
Panel glass edge.

Step 7 - Add Trim to Fixed Panel
1. Take note of label on glass ‘This surface to
outside’ this will determine which is the bottom
edge of your installation.
2. Use 210mm (for 900x900 unit) / 510mm (for
1200x900 unit) Trim Seal depending on which Unit
you’re installing.
3. Like step 3, peel off a small length of the bottom
trim adhesive tape and apply to bottom of glass
panel 15mm from the end as shown. Continue
along length of trim, peeling away the tape as you
go, until the full trim length is adhered to the panel.
3. Lightly re-insert 2 of the 3 screws removed
previously, as shown below from the inside. Do not
fully tighten.
Step 8 - Prepare Top Rail
1. Remove the three screws that fix the inner and outer extrusion, as shown below.
2. Very lightly loosen the mid-rail outer screws, as shown below. Do not remove, or loosen too much
that the screws could self remove.

1. Carefully fit glass panel fully into slot in wallpost,
ensuring panel is parallel to tray edge.
2. Acquire the shim from the installation back. Place the
shim under the glass so that there is approx. 3-4mm gap
underneath the glass panel. Make sure the shim isn’t in
contact with the Trim seal from step 3. See below.
3. From inside the enclosure, place the push-in channel
(black strip towards glass) against the glass. At this stage
don’t need to fully insert. Insert 1/4 at the top to secure
glass panel whilst installing.
4. Now remove the shim as the push-in channel will
hold the glass in position.
2. Remove push-in channel using the M305-01
provided. So that the J-Bend panel sits on the rail.
4. Re-insert push-in channel, like step 4.

Step 11 - Fit Top Rail to Glass Panels
1. Carefully place the dis-assembled rail from step 8 over both Glass Panels. Outer extrusion to be
on the outside of the glass, and the inner extrusion to be the inside of the glass. Line up the 2 holes
on the rail with 2 holes on the glass on the J-Bend Panel. Make sure hole rail matches up with the
hole on the Fixed Panel.
2. Ensure the mid-rail end caps are tight against the edges of the fixed panels. Once the holes are
lined up lightly re-insert the 3 screws removed previously, as shown below from the inside. Do not
fully tighten.
Step 14 - Fully Insert Push-In Channels
1. Remove the push-in channels previously inserted
in step 4 and 9.
Push-in channel can be removed, by inserting tool
(M305-01) supplied to pull the channel out at top.
2. Ensure outer edge of the Glass Panels are vertical,
as shown, using spirit level. Make sure the rails are
also level.
3. Fully insert the push-in channel (black strip
towards glass) against the glass, starting from the
bottom, insert into wall posts.
Ensure they are fully inserted so that the channel
is flush with the surface of the wall post along the
entire height.
Drawn lines on the glass panels should not be visible
beyond the wallposts after fitting push-in channels.
Step 13 - Tighten Screws in Rails
1. Carefully tighten the 6 screws per rail.
Step 9 - Fit Fixed Panel Glass
1. Carefully lift and fit glass panel into slot in wall post
and slot in the bottom rail, ensuring panel is parallel to
tray edge. Make sure hole rail matches up with the hole
on the Fixed Panel. Ensure the mid-rail end cap is tight
against the edge of the glass panel.
2. From inside the enclosure, place the push-in channel
(black strip towards glass) against the glass. At this stage
don’t need to fully insert. Insert 1/4 at the top to secure
glass panel whilst installing.
3. Once the hole are lined up lightly re-insert the
last remaining screw previously removed, as shown
below from the inside. Do not fully tighten.
Step 12 - Level Bottom Rail
1. Often shower trays have different
angled top faces, in order to help keep
the frame supported use the ‘Shim
(M193-01)’ supplied. On the inside of
the enclosure measure the gap between
the bottom of the rail and top of the tray,
select the height required from the shim
strip supplied, break off and insert under
rail. The shim will be concealed by silicone
sealant later.
Step 10 - Adjust Panel CAM Rings
1. Using the Flat-head Screwdriver turn the CAM Rings
at the top of the fixed panels to the orientation as shown
below. Slot to be at the top. CAM rings at the bottom of
the fixed panels can be left as they are.

Step 15 - Fit the Door Glass
2. Carefully lift the door into position.
3. Carefully position both sets of wheels assemblies into the
running groove in the top rail.
1. At the top of both wall posts
secure and fit the Top Caps (M224-
01) with the No.4x13mm CSK
screws provided. Like shown.
Step 16 - Add the Bottom Guides to Door
1. Disassemble both DCM210-ASM guides. Slide the guides along the rail so
that they match up with the holes on the ‘hanging’ Door Glass.
Step 17x - Fit Cover Caps
2. Re-insert the removed pads and screws. Use both hands. One to hold the guide
and pads in position and the other to re-insert the screw. Ensure the guides are
fitted tightly against the bottom edge of the curved sliding door.
Note: To allow smooth operation of the cast sprung guides, apply Vaseline or
appropriate lubricant to inside of the bottom rail only.
1. Before fitting the door make sure the top rail is free from debris. Use a
lint free cloth to wipe the inside of the rail.

1.Looking from the outside of the enclosure, slide the door into the
closed position. Check the door glass is level with the Straight Fixed
Panel down the entirety of it’s edge.
2.If there is an uneven gap, the glass in the door can be adjusted
either up or down at each corner with the rollers. Using a Pozi-head
Screwdriver, loosen or tighten the bolt located on the top of each roller
set. Each roller has around 6mm of adjustment, clockwise will lower the
glass, anti-clockwise raises the glass.
Step 18 - Adjust Door Glass
1. On the outside, silicone around all three junctions with the wall and tray,
and also all the way round the bottom rail. A thick bead of silicone will
need to be applied between the curve of the J-bend panel and the rail. On
the inside, only silicone along the two vertical junctions with the wall. And
along the shim only if used.
Do not silicone seal on the inside of unit (except where shown). Sealing the
wall posts & sills to the tray on the inside can result in leakage problems -
please note that, in use, water can penetrate into the frame extrusions- this
has no detrimental effect to the product- however, this water must be
allowed to drain out of the extrusions to the inside. Silicone down the wall posts wall junction.
When installed correctly, Kudos guarentee the enclosure will not leak under normal showering use, ie. when the shower head
is in it’s normal showering position.
N.B. - Using the shower head to clean/rinse down the enclosure does not constitute normal showering use.

Step 19 - Fit Seal to Fixed Glass Panels
1. Acquire the ‘1931mm - PlexRF-053 Closing Seal’ and fit to the edge of the fixed
panel, with the soft ‘skirt’ facing the inside, in order to contact with the sliding door glass.
Fit from bottom to top. Make sure the seal sits inbetween the mid-rail end cap and the
panel edge.
2. Acquire the ‘1931mm - PlexRF-026 Seal’ and fit to the edge of the J-Bend Fixed
panel, with the soft ‘skirt’ facing the inside, in order to contact with the sliding door glass.
Fit from bottom to top. Make sure the seal sits inbetween the mid-rail end cap and the
panel edge.

3. Acquire the ‘1963mm - PlexRF-026 Closing Seal’. You’ll need to notch both ends so
that it doesn’t catch the rails once fitted to the door glass. Determine which end will be
at the top and at the bottom. Cut 12mm from the top and 20mm from the bottom,
only cut the ‘soft’ plastic. See below.
4. Use the notched ‘1963mm - PlexRF-026 Closing Seal’ and fit to the edge of the
Door Glass (vertical edge furthest away from the handle), with the soft ‘skirt’ facing
the outside, in order to contact with the J-Bend Glass Panel PlexRF-023 seal. Fit from
bottom to top like shown.
