Adjust door so that bottom edge of glass runs as close as
possible to guide without interference.
With the door closed, use 3mm allen key through
holes in top of horizontal rail to raise or lower the door.
Door may need moving slightly to left or right to align
hole and adjusting screw.
Z
With drip lip to INSIDE, offer threshold capping upto threshold corner. Adjacent to centre
guide block, measure / mark length required & neatly / squarely cut capping to length Z
before fitting.
Push magnetic seals onto edge
of door glass and side panel.
Seals may be wetted to ease fit.
threshold corner
centre guide block
(cut at this end of capping ONLY)

Apply a continuous bead of clear silicone sealant as shown EXTERNALLY ONLY.

Basic Troubleshooting :
Door motion noisy / Door not running smoothly.
Check edge seals not dragging on glass or fouling any other part of the enclosure
Check wheels engaged correctly on track and roll smoothly
Check door glass adjusted correctly (not dragging on guide)
Leakage:
The sealing method described in these instructions relies on a continuous seal being applied
between walls & tray before installing the enclosure, it ensures a watertight seal around the
perimeter of the enclosure to the shower walls & tray.
In the unlikely event of an enclosure leak water will be visible on the outside of the
enclosure itself or around the perimeter joints only. Water appearing outside of the
enclosure i.e. at oor level is normally due to incorrect tray installation.
