Before starting installation of your new enclosure, carefully read all instructions and lay out parts to become
familiar with their identity.

SEALING •

Seal unit by caulking along outside of enclosure where metal and bath meet, especially where sill meets threshold.

If desired, caulk inside of enclosure where jambs meet walls.

CLEANING •

Cleaning and care of your enclosure is important to its lasting beauty. A nonabrasive liquid cleaner is

recommended. Never use scouring powder or pads.

Kwikstal doors are designed to be reversible and may be installed to hinge-left or hinge-right. The following
instructions show a hinge-right door.

CAUTION •

Do not attempt to cut mirrors or glass used in this enclosure. Tempered glass and mirror will shatter if cut. Care should

be taken when standing raw glass on its edge. Glass may shatter if corners are bumped or edge is rested on a rough floor surface.
Cardboard, wood blocks (provided with hardware), or a similar surface is a safe resting surface for glass.

USE OF ANCHORS •

Anchors are furnished with every enclosure. However, the use of anchors is not recommended when

attaching your enclosure to a fiberglass unit or wall surrounds with board reinforced mounting areas. Mounting holes in this case
should be drilled with an 1/8" drill bit.

Mounting this unit on tile requires the use of anchors. Special care must be taken not to crack the tile. Before drilling holes in
the tile, lightly chip glazed surface of tile at the desired locations. Drill holes using a 3/16" masonry drill bit. Insert anchors into
the holes making certain that ring on large end of anchor meets the surface of the tile.

Header and sill are identical except that the sill has weep
holes on inside surface. Identify sill with weep holes.

Determine placement of sill (A) on shower threshold. Normally
door is installed with sill centered on the flat surface of
threshold.

Measure opening at threshold and cut sill to that
measurement. If necessary, file sharp edges to fit rounded
corners of your unit.

With sill in upside down position, apply a 1/4" bead of caulk
along bottom of sill.

Position sill on threshold with weep holes facing inside of
shower. Tape to threshold with masking tape to hold in place
while positioning jambs.

Clean caulk that squeezes out from under sill with a wooden
wedge, plastic scraper, or popsicle stick.
