Apply a generous bead of silicone to the underside of the Underframe and replace it in
its marked position. Ensure that the junction between the end of the Underframe and the
wall is sealed with silicone.
Silicone the Underframe End Cap in position.
Carefully fix the underframe in position with masking tape and leave for 24 hours before
removing the tape.
Assemble the hinges to the glass leaf as shown. Ensure that the clear plastic
sleeves are fitted inside the holes in the glass and that gaskets are placed either
side of the glass.
Use the wall profile with hinge parts attached to check the spacing between the
hinges and use a set square to ensure that the hinges are correctly aligned.
Fully tighten the hinges. Leave for 10 minutes and then re-tighten to compensate
for compression of the gaskets.

Attach the wall profiles to the wall. Run a bead of silicone down the back of the inner
wall profile as shown to ensure a waterproof seal against the wall.
The wall screws should pass through both profiles. Use the self adhesive packers
between the profiles if required to achieve adjustment and compensate for any lean
in or lean out of the wall relative to the rim of the bath.
Once you are satisfied that the face of the wall profile is at 90 degrees to
the rim of the bath, fully tighten the wall screws and replace the cover plate
as shown.
