10. Place the shower floor into the rough opening and

firmly press it into the mortar/thinset. Make sure the
entire length of the shower floor front lip is supported
by the subfloor.

Note: Make sure the side and back flanges of the
shower floor are parallel with the framework, with an
even gap (recommended 1/16”) between the framework
and the shower floor flanges.

Do Not Use Nails
To prevent damage to the shower floor and
possible water or other damage to floors, pipes,
walls, or other portions of your building or

home, do not use nails or screws to secure it to the
framework. Nails are not necessary to hold the shower
floor in place and will void the warranty.

11. Level the shower floor in both directions and allow

the mortar/thinset to set up for 24 hours. Once
cured, the mortar/thinset will prevent the shower
floor from moving, eliminating the need for a
mechanical fastener.

12. Place cardboard, or similar scratch-resistant

material, in the bottom of the shower floor to prevent
possible damage during further construction.
