Place the two wall jambs [C] into the ends of the
curb [A]. Masking tape may be used to hold the curb in
place during this operation. Plumb the jambs and mark
the hole locations on the wall. Remove all parts and drill
the walls for mounting hardware.
For tile or marble walls, drill six 3/16" diameter holes
and insert the plastic wall anchors [D]. Attachments to
fiberglass or acrylic units can be made in two ways. If
a reinforcement is built into the walls of the unit, then
drill six 1/8" holes to install mounting screws directly
into the reinforcement. If walls are not reinforced, drill
six 3/16" holes and install plastic wall anchors or toggle
bolts (toggle bolts not supplied by Alumax).

Wipe the shower walls and sill, curb [A] and wall
jambs [C] with a clean, dry cloth to remove any dust or
debris. Apply a 1/4" bead of caulk along the inside of
both of the pencil lines marked in Step #2. Carefully
replace the curb in the exact position marked. Caulk the
inside of the curb ends where they meet the wall.
Replace both of the wall jambs and attach to the walls
with six #8 x 1 1/2" truss head screws [E].
If the steam door is full height (fills the opening vertically)
set the header [B] in place on top of the wall jambs
before installing the attachment screws.

Attach the interior door handle [F] and the exterior
door handle [G] to the glazed door panel assembly [J]
with two #6 x 1 1/8" round head screws [H].
