The A LUMAX 393 S TIK S TALL Shower Enclo-
sure is completely reversible and may be installed
pivot-left or pivot-right. The door may pivot from
the wall or from the center post. Using the illus-
tration, determine the correct position for the door
in your particular S
TIK S TALL installation. This
instruction sheet depicts a pivot-right installa-
tion.
NOTE: Fixed glass panel size should be deter-
mined by formulas shown on A
LUMAX detail sheets.
CAUTION: For safety reasons, the door panel
must always open outward.

Measure the opening at the bottom of the
shower stall and trim the ends of the curb assem-
bly [A] (with weep slots) to fit the shower sill. The
curb should sit near the centerline of the sill. If
required, use a file to round the lower ends of the
curb assembly to fit the shower sill properly.
Using a 3/16" drill bit, drill the interior face of the
curb assembly on both ends as shown.
Reposition the curb assembly on the shower sill
and mark its position with a pencil line along the
interior and exterior base.

Assemble the two curb sections [A] (with
weep slots) by sliding a 90° anchor plate [B] into
the mitered ends and forcing the sections to-
gether. The weep slots in the curb must be to the
inside. Using the slotted holes in the anchor plate
as a guide, drill matching 1/8" holes into the curbs.
Secure the anchor plate to the curb with four #8 x
1/4" truss head screws [C]. As you tighten the
screws, be sure the mitered ends are forced tightly
together. To increase the rigidity of the mitered
joint, drill and install two more screws through
the round holes in the bracket.
Assemble the two header sections [D] in the same
manner and set the header assembly aside.
