Measure the opening at the bottom of the
shower stall and cut the curb [

] (with weep slots)
to fit the full width of the opening. If required, use
a file to round the lower corners of the curb to fit
the shower sill properly.
Using a 3/16" drill bit, drill the interior face of the
curb on both ends as shown.
Position the curb in the middle of the sill with the
weep slots to the interior and mark its position
with a pencil line along the interior and exterior
base.

framework has been designed to work with a variety of different
door types. To ensure correct installation, this 791 Instruction Sheet is designed to be used by itself
with a 790 Framed Pivot Door or with an instruction supplement packed with a 390 Frameless Pivot
Door, or a 1090 Heavy Frameless Pivot Door.
Each step in this primary instruction sheet will indicate whether it applies to all door types or
if a supplement should be used. If your door panel kit does not have an instruction supplement, then
contact your dealer for the proper instructions. 790 door panel kits are covered in this instruction
and therefore will not come with a separate instruction supplement.
