Fit the wall channel caps (S, S2 &amp; S3) (as illustrated above in Stage 1 &amp; 2) to both sets of channels.
Position the wall channel assemblies onto the tray and against the wall. Ensure the wall channel assemblies are perfectly vertical
and 15mm from edge of the tray (as illustrated in Stage 3) using the measuring tool (W). Mark the wall top and bottom internally,
then separate the wall profile from the angled profile. Take the angled profile and place it on the wall in line with the pencil marks.
Mark off the larger hole positions onto the tiles using centre punch ((P) Stage 4). Drill 8mm diameter holes to a depth of 50mm
(Stage 5). Push-fit wall plugs (O) in beyond depth of tile (Stage 6).
Using the 45mm pozi pan head screws (G), fix the angled profiles to the wall (Stage 7). Attach the wall profiles to the angled
profiles using the countersunk screws (N) as shown in Stage 8.

Important: Ensure the pre-drilled hole on the rails line up with the fixed panel brackets (D).
Do not fully tighten yet.
Ensure that when fixing the rails that the top and bottom rails are flush with the end of the profile (V1), also check that the rail is
flush to the beginging of the vertical face see (V2) and fully tighten.

screws (A) in the order shown (1-2-3-4-5-6). Do not fully
tighten all screws yet.
With help (if required), lift and place the part assembled
enclosure onto the tray.
Slide the first side onto a wall channel followed by the next
(there is flexibility in the assembly to allow this).
Ensure that when fixing the rails that the top and bottom
rails are flush with the end of the profile (see step 6, V1), also
check that the rail is flush to the beginning of the vertical face
(see step 6, V2).Fully tighten all screws.
The enclosure should sit with an even gap all around the tray
with no part overhanging.

The distance between the top and bottom rails MUST be EQUAL at both ends and in the middle.
If adjustment is needed, from inside the enclosure loosen the bracket screw using the 3mm allen key (U) and adjust the cam on
the bottom fixed panel bracket using the spanner supplied (K) (fig.1).
Once adjustment is complete, from outside the enclosure push-fit both bracket covers (D) onto the brackets (fig.2).
Retighten the cam screw and push-fit cover caps (F) onto both brackets (top and bottom).

NOTE: Insert then remove the 14mm pan head screws (B) into the top and bottom roller assemblies (X &amp; Y) before use to make them
easier to assemble once inside the enclosure.
Carefully lift the first door and carry into the enclosure (the correct way around).
Place the top rollers (X) into the top rail and attach to the top holes in the door using 14mm pan head screws (B) and hexagonal
cams (E). Place the bottom rollers (Y) into the bottom rail and attach to the bottom holes in the door using 14mm pan head screws
(B) and hexagonal cams (E). Use the spanner supplied (K) to set the cams in their highest positions as shown. Repeat with the
second door.
Ensure when fitting the top and bottom wheel assemblies that the wheels are positioned on to the track. Ensure that the assemblies
are not positioned on the outer edge of the rails as this will damage your product and affect the performance.

To clean the enclosure, use plenty of water and a soft cloth or sponge to wipe down all aluminum sections and plastic parts. Do not use any solvent or abrasive chemicals to clean this product. We recommend that this product is cleaned with Showerlux ‘Showerclean’ once a week. This will help to reduce the build up of lime scale.

The installation process is detailed in the user manual.
