Thank you for purchasing this Cadiz shower screen. Please study these instructions
carefully before assembly and installation.
Checking of Parts
Parts are listed at the beginning of this guide. Please check all supplied parts immediately
and contact the Majestic Shower Company in the event of any missing or damaged parts.
These instructions are for left and right handed units. All parts are reversible.
Handling of Parts
When handling glass, use suction glass lifters and take care to ensure that corners or edges
are not knocked. Do not place glass on hard surfaces - place cushioning material under-
neath to prevent the glass from shattering.
Unwrap all metal parts carefully to prevent damaging the plated surfaces.
Pre Installation Checks
Prior to undertaking installation, check the accuracy of the following against specifications
for the particular installation location:
- Verticality and flatness of walls. Where wall profiles are used, some lean in or lean out of
the wall relative to the floor or tray can be accommodated (+/- 9mm if 24mm profile is used,
+/- 6mm if 17mm profile is used).
- Levelness and flatness of the floor or tray. Where a profile or underframe is used under-
neath a glass panel, any minor hollows in the mounting surface must be solidly packed to
prevent deflection under the weight of the glass as this may over stress the glass.
Installation Tips
The general principle of assembly is to assemble parts in the steps shown - first a dry
assembly to check fits or mark cutting or drilling positions and then a final assembly with
silicone.
When cutting aluminium extrusion, wrap the profile with masking tape first and cut through
the taped area - this will help protect the surrounding surface. Use a fine file to smooth cut
edges.
If anti-calcium glass has been specified, the treated side of the glass will be indicated and
should always face inwards towards the wet side of the shower area.
DO NOT ASSEMBLE WITHOUT FULLY READING THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Temporarily assemble the underframe and place it in position on the floor or tray.
The front section of underframe is factory cut to the correct length to suit your Door and
MUST NOT be shortened.
The side section of underframe is supplied at maximum length to be cut down on
site to accommodate any lean in or lean out of the wall relative to the floor.
If you are using 24 mm Recessed Wall profiles and if your wall leans inwards, cut
0-9 mm from the wall end of each underframe side; if it leans outwards, cut 9-18
mm from each side. If the wall is at right angles to the floor or tray, cut 9 mm from
each side.

For 17 mm wall profile:
If your wall leans inwards, cut 0-5 mm from the wall end of each underframe side; if it leans
outwards, cut 5-10 mm from each side. If the wall is at right angles to the floor or tray, cut
5 mm from each side.
If the underframe is being installed on a tray, its position in relation to the edge of
the tray must also be considered. Ideally, the outer edge of the underframe should
10 mm back from the edge of the tray on all sides.

After cutting the side of the underframe to size, apply silicone to the mitred faces of the
front and side sections and assemble the underframe using the connectors provided. Fully
tighten the grub screws.
Replace the assembled underframe in position on the floor or tray and mark its position.
Run a substantial bead of silicone along the centre of the underframe to seal it
against the floor or tray and apply a small amount of silicone in the corners where
the underframe will sit against the wall.
Replace the underframe in position where you have marked the floor or tray and
tape it in place whilst the silicone sets.

Insert the 10 mm spacer into the underframe channel and use it to align the wall profile. Push
the profile down as far as it will go and, using a spirit level to ensure that it is perfectly vertical,
mark the screw hole positions on the wall. Remove the profile.
Drill 6 mm holes where marked and insert wall plugs.
Reposition the wall profile and insert the top and bottom screws to hold it in place.
Remove the 10mm spacer and insert a rubber strip into the underframe channel
where the Return panel will sit.

lower into the underframe channel.
Ensure that the Return panel is pulled forward in the underframe to align as shown. 10 Check that the front edge of the Return panel is plumb vertical, using additional
rubber strips under the glass if necessary to pack it up and noting the position of
these strips.
Do not use more than 3 thicknesses of rubber under the glass.

11 Disassemble the Glass to Wall brackets being careful not to damage the face plates. With the
clear plastic gaskets inserted between the brackets and the glass and the wall screw plates
facing inwards, align the brackets centrally in the slots in the glass, hold them in place and
mark the screw hole positions.
Mark the wall profile at the top edge of the glass so that it can be trimmed flush.
12 Use the suction glass lifters to remove the Return panel, making a note of the
number and position of the rubber strips that you have placed under the panel.
Unscrew and remove the wall profiles.
Drill 7mm holes for the wall brackets in the positions marked and insert the wall
plugs. Apply a small amount of silicone around the holes in the wall to prevent any
water from leaking into the wall.

Loosely screw the Glass to Wall brackets to the wall.
14 Check that the rubber strips are correctly positioned where the Return panel will
sit.

correct position.
To prevent leakage around the wall brackets, fill the glass slots with silicone before fitting the
faceplates.

ensuring that the clear gaskets are inserted on both sides of the panel. Fully tighten
the wall screws.

17 Insert short pieces of the self adhesive rubber strip supplied in each door hinge slot on the
Door as shown to ensure that the door does not drop under its own weight over time.
Disassemble the hinges, being careful not to damage the polished surfaces, and assemble
them to the door ensuring that each face of the glass is separated from the hinges by a gasket.
18 Position the hinges centrally in their slots and use a set square to align them with
the edge of the glass. Check that the holes are adequately packed with the rubber
strips by using a set square to ensure that the hinges are at 90 degrees to the
edge of the glass when upward pressure is applied to them.
Fully tighten the hinge screws to 10-12 NM torque.

21 Drill 7 mm holes in the wall where marked and insert wall plugs. Replace the door.
Using only the four outer screw holes, tightly screw the hinges to the wall. To prevent damage
to the hinge plates, open the door outwards to gain access to the inner screw holes, insert
screws and tighten fully.
22 The other length of vertical seal is to be cut in 3 sections to fit to the door above,
below and between the hinges.
For maximum resistance to leakage, the seal sections should be cut as shown
above to allow them to fill the gaps in the hinge through which water might
otherwise escape.

26 Push the underframe insert into the underframe channel under the door noting
the difference in orientation for outward and inward opening doors.
The vertical blade of the insert should be notched at each end as shown to allow
any water to drain back from the underframe to the inside of the shower

Adjust the bias on the hinges using the 2 small grub screws on the inside and
outside of the hinge. For an outward opening door, the two grub screws on the
outside of each hinge should be undone until their heads are flush with the hinge.
The grub screws on the inside of the hinge can then be tightened, pulling the door
in to the seal.
Reverse this process for inward opening doors.
