The shower door is designed for versatile installation and can slide to the right or left. If necessary, the track can be cut to adjust the width between 44 and 48 inches. Ensure the internal buckle mechanism is in the correct position for proper soft-closing functionality. (Refer to video segments 0:10 - 0:34 for track orientation and buckle check).

Position the wall channels and mark drilling points. Drill holes, insert anchors, and apply sealant before securing the channels to the wall. Ensure the channels are plumb and level. (Refer to video segments 0:40 - 1:00 for wall channel placement and drilling).
- Fixed Glass Panel Installation:
Carefully place the fixed glass panel into the installed wall channel and bottom track. Secure it using the provided hardware. Do not remove the glass corner protection until the entire installation is complete. (Refer to video segments 1:02 - 1:23 for fixed glass panel placement and securing).
