Coral Industries Hyaline Swing Door (1/4 Frameless) - 6M0 - Manual (Page 2)

6M0 7/09
Before starting installation of your new enclosure, carefully read all instructions and lay out parts to become
familiar with their identity. Frameless patch-hinge doors, by nature of their design, are not completely watertight.
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.
1 Sill
(A)
Due to the manufacturing process, there may
be rack marks present at one end of your sill.
Sill must be trimmed to fit your individual
opening. When cutting sill, make certain to
trim off end with rack marks.
Before beginning installation, decide which will be
the opening side of your door. Door is normally
installed to open on the showerhead side of unit.
For safety purposes, door should be installed to
open out from shower.
Also determine placement of door on threshold.
Normally door is centered on flat surface of
threshold. Mark centerline on threshold.
The use of sill (A) is optional. If using sill, measure
opening at threshold and cut sill to that
measurement. If necessary, file sharp corners of
sill 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 centerline of threshold with tall
edge of sill toward outside of shower. Tape sill to
threshold with masking tape to hold in place while
positioning door stops.
Clean caulk that squeezes out from under sill with
a wooden wedge, plastic scraper, or popsicle
stick.
