Measure the horizontal frame opening at the
top and bottom. The minimum dimension for the door
opening is the glazed door panel width [J] (see the
graphic in Step #7) plus 1/2", maximum is the door
panel width plus 1 3/4".
Using the holes in the ends of the curb [A] and header
[B] as a guide, drill four 1/8" holes into the wall jambs
[C]. Secure the header and the curb to the wall jambs
with four #8 x 1/4" truss head screws [L].
Snap the fillers [R] into the curb [A] and header
[B] between the door jambs with the raised lip to the
exterior and the pivot holes toward the pivot jamb.
Center the curb filler in the curb between the pivot and
strike jamb (use masking tape to hold it in position).
NOTE: The snap-in fillers should be exactly 3/8" longer
than the door panel width.

Strip two clear vinyl jamb seals [M] into the
door panel [J] splash guard and the pivot jamb [N] and
trim flush at the ends. Both vinyls should be turned to
trap water from the shower head. Secure the vinyls with
a small quantity of glue or caulk at each end or by
carefully crimping the vinyl pocket. Set the door panel
aside.
Press the pivot jamb and strike jamb [P] (with magnetic
strip) over the wall jambs [C]. Refer to Step #1 for the
proper handing of the door.
NOTE: The magnetic strip on the strike jamb must face
the exterior and the clear vinyl jamb seal on the pivot
jamb must face inward.
