1. Determine the Door Conﬁguration

IMPORTANT! Depending on which pivot conﬁguration is chosen (left or right) your assembly

instructions will vary. For purposes of these instructions, a ″left hinge″ installation is shown.

Determine whether the door will pivot on the right or left side.

NOTE: The door will hinge on the same side as the side panel.

Make sure the door can swing freely in the chosen conﬁguration.

Determine if the area above the header will be closed (steam installation) or open (non-steam

installation). If it is a steam installation, the height of your opening ″A″ must be between 76-5/8″

(194.6 cm) and 77″ (195.6 cm). The height of the opening for non-steam installations must be 76-5/8″

(194.6 cm) or greater.

2. Measure and Cut the Wall Jambs

CAUTION: Risk of personal injury. Always wear safety glasses while cutting.

IMPORTANT! The wall jambs must sit ﬂush against the sidewalls and shower ledge. If your shower has

curved corners where the sidewalls meet the ledge, it may be necessary to shape the bottom ends of the

wall jambs with a ﬁle.

NOTE: A label marks the top of each wall jamb. Do not remove the labels until the wall jambs are

installed.

Carefully measure the height ″A″ of the ﬁnished opening. Refer to the roughing-in sheet to conﬁrm

that the door will ﬁt in the ﬁnished opening.

Cut the wall jambs to this measurement. Make sure to cut the end labeled ″Cut this end″. For best

results, use a 32-teeth per inch hacksaw blade and a miter box.

Cut the wall jambs to 76″ (193 cm) in length. Make sure to cut the end labeled ″Cut this end″.

Cut the end

with the "Cut

this end" label.
