4. Postavljanje i instalacija

This section outlines the installation process. It is crucial to follow these steps carefully for a secure and watertight installation. While the door can be installed on either the left or right side, careful planning is essential.

4.1 Provjere prije instalacije

• Otvaranje mjere: Confirm your shower opening width is between 33.5 and 35 inches and height is 72 inches.
• Level Surfaces: Ensure walls and shower base are plumb and level. Adjustments for uneven surfaces are possible but require careful planning.
• Potreban alat: Drill, level, tape measure, pencil, caulk gun, silicone sealant (40-year mold-resistant, waterproof), utility knife, screwdriver set, safety glasses.

4.2 Step-by-Step Installation Guide

The following steps incorporate best practices for a robust and watertight installation, emphasizing proper caulking techniques.

1. Install the Fixed Wall Profile:

   Postavite zidni profile that will hold the hinged side of the shower door against the tile wall. Use a level to ensure it is perfectly vertical. Mark the drilling points on the wall. Drill the necessary holes as indicated in the provided diagram.

2. Apply Silicone Sealant (Crucial Step):

   Before screwing the wall profile to the wall, apply two thick beads of high-quality, mold-resistant, waterproof silicone caulk along the backside of the profile, approximately 1/2 inch from each edge. This creates a superior watertight seal and distributes the door's weight more effectively.
3. Mount the Fixed Wall Profile:

   Carefully align the wall profile with your pencil marks and press it firmly against the tile wall. The caulk will squish out. Secure the profile using the provided screws. Clean off excess caulk immediately with a damp cloth and smooth the edges for a professional finish. Allow the caulk to cure completely for at least 24 hours before proceeding.

4. Assemble and Position the Door Panels:

   Attach the door panels to the hinged side profile. The hinges allow for 180-degree rotation, enabling the door to fold inward or outward, which is beneficial for small spaces. Ensure the glass panels are correctly oriented for your desired opening direction.

5. Install the Opposite Wall Profile and Adjust Width:

   Temporarily hang the assembled door onto the fixed wall profile. Measure and align the opposite wall profile. The design allows for approximately 0.75 inches of width adjustment on each side to accommodate varying wall conditions or slight measurement discrepancies. Apply silicone caulk to the back of this profile before securing it to the wall, similar to step 2. Allow caulk to cure for 24 hours.

6. Secure Door to Profiles:

   Once both wall profiles are securely mounted and their caulk is cured, attach the door assembly to both profiles. Apply clear silicone caulk where the door's metal components meet the wall profiles to ensure a complete watertight seal. The glass panels and pivot mechanism are designed to be the same height for optimal waterproofing.

7. Install Seals and Baffle:

   Install the vinyl magnetic shower door seal strips along the edges of the glass panels to ensure a secure closure and prevent water spillage. Attach the waterproof baffle/drip rail along the bottom edge of the door. This component is designed to direct water back into the shower area.
