Measure the opening at the bottom of the shower
stall and cut the curb [A] (with weep slots) to fit the full
width of the opening. Measure the shower stall opening
at the full unit height and cut the header [B] to length as
well. If required, use a file to round the outside corners
of the curb and header to fit the shower stall contours
properly.
Using a 3/16" drill bit, drill the interior face of the curb
and header on both ends as shown.
Position the curb in the middle of the sill with the weep
slots to the interior and mark its position with a pencil
line along the interior and exterior base.

The Alumax 890 Steam Door is completely
reversible and may be installed pivot-left or pivot-right
(hinge-left or hinge-right). For maximum waterproofing,
the pivot (or hinge) jamb should always be opposite the
shower head. Using the illustration, determine the
correct position for the door in your particular installation.
This instruction sheet depicts a pivot-right (hinge-right)
installation.
CAUTION: For safety reasons, the door panel must
always open outward.
The Alumax 890 Steam Door is designed to be installed alone
as shown in the exploded views or combined with a custom StikStall
framework. They can be installed with an inline panel (091), a return
panel (092), an inline and a return panel (093), or a neo-angle unit
(094). Fixed glass panel sizes should be determined by formulas
shown on Alumax detail sheets.
To ensure proper functioning in a custom installation, this
instruction sheet (packed with a glazed or KD steam door) should be
used to supplement the StikStall Installation Instruction sheet (791,
792, 793, 794) that will be packaged with the corresponding StikStall
frame kit. Each step in the primary StikStall instruction sheet will
indicate whether it applies to all door types or if this sheet should be
used. If your StikStall Instruction Sheet does not mention the use of
a supplement before Step #1, then contact your dealer for the proper
instruction sheet.
