1. Preparation
   • Clean the shower opening so it’s free of dust and debris.

2. Install Side Rails
   • Hold the side rails vertically; mark screw-hole locations and drill pilot holes.  
     Because each RV wall is different material. You will need to provide your own screws based on what you are drilling into
   • Peel the adhesive backing, align rails, press firmly, then fasten screws.
3. Install Bottom Track
   • Measure and trim the track (if needed) so it fits snugly between side rails.
   • Press the track into place; run a thin bead of silicone along the edges if desired.
4. Install Shower Screen Assembly
   • Choose which side you want the cassette mounted.
   • Align the cassette with the bottom track and side rail.
   • Secure it using the pre-drilled holes and supplied screws.
5. Attach End Caps
   • Snap end caps onto the tops and bottoms of both side rails and the cassette.
6. Test the Door
   • Fully extend the screen and latch it.
   • Release to confirm smooth retraction and proper alignment.

Maintenance Tips

• Wipe the screen with a damp cloth regularly.
• Inspect rails and screen for wear or damage each season.
• If retraction feels stiff, apply a silicone-based lubricant to the rails.
