IMPORTANT:
Please check the glass and all components thoroughly
before installation; if any of the parts have been supplied
incorrectly or are damaged, contact Majestic immediately.
Any faults with the product found after installation cannot
be rectified and Majestic will not be held responsible for
re-installation of faulty or marked goods.
Unwrap all parts carefully to avoid damaging the chrome
fittings!
This unit must be fitted on a level surface, unless the
glass has been cut to suit any slope in the floor.
Whether fitting to a tiled floor or tray, ensure the area
is degreased, dust free and level.
Do not place the glass panels on hard surfaces! Cover
any hard surfaces you are working on with a cushioned
material, to help prevent the glass from shattering on
contact.
Before commencing the installation, please familiarise
yourself with the glass-handling guide attached to the
glass panels. Where appropriate, the top end of the
glass panels will be indicated.
If you have purchased anti-calcium glass, the treated
side of the glass will be indicated and should always
face towards the inside (wet side) of the shower
enclosure.
Certain sections of the installation of this shower
enclosure require two people.

3Before cutting the horizontal profiles, you will also have to
consider whether the walls that the panels will be fixed to
are leaning in or out.
A: If wall leans in at top: leave extra length on the profile; cut
off less than 9mm.
B: If wall leans out at the top;the profile needs to be shorter;
cut off more than 9mm.
4If the unit is being installed on a tray the position of the profiles
in relation to the lip of the tray must also be considered. Ideally
the outer edge of the profiles should sit 10mm back from the
front edge of the tray.
1
The horizontal profiles are supplied at maximum adjustment
length and have been mitred as a guide, but it is likely you will
have to cut them down.
Before setting out the horizontal profiles you will have to
determine how much you will need to cut off in-line profile A
and the return profile.
2
If you cut 9mm off the square end of the profiles, then the
glass panels will sit in the centre of the vertical wall profile
adjustment.
Before cutting the horizontal profiles, make sure the glass
in-line and return panels will fit into their floor profiles after
you have cut them down.

Insert the 10mm spacer into the horizontal return profile, and
use it to align the vertical wall profile. Push the mitred ends
together, and use a spirit level to ensure the wall profile is
plumb vertical.
Mark the screw holes; remove the vertical wall profile. Drill
4.5mm holes; insert Rawl plugs.
8
Reposition the vertical wall profile, and insert the top and bottom
screws to hold it place. Insert a rubber strip into the horizontal
return profile. Using the suction glass lifters, lift the glass return
panel into the profile.
Make sure the return panel is plumb vertical; pack it up with 3”
rubber strips if necessary, taking note of their positions. Do not
use more than three strips of rubber under the panel.

Measure the width of the inline profiles A and B and the glass
door panel C in mm and write the results into the boxes below;
it is important to measure to the tips of the mitred ends of the
profiles. Use the formula A +B +C +9 to calculate D:
6
Make a mark on the tray or floor Dmm along the wall. Place
the outside of the horizontal return profile inside the mark,
perpendicular to the wall. Ensure the mitred end is pushed into
the corner, tape the profile into place and mark its position.
At this point, double check the measurements of the door and
in-line panels to make sure the door gap is correct.

Using a metal scriber, mark the vertical profile level with the top
of the glass. The glass return panel can be moved backwards or
forwards in the return profile to help you position the front
profiles, but the glass must be inside the vertical wall profile by
at least 5mm along its entire height.
10
Disassemble two glass-to-wall brackets, being careful not to
damage the faceplates. With the clear plastic gaskets inserted
and wall screw plates facing inwards, align the brackets centrally
to the holes in the glass return panel; hold them in place and
