Parklane By-Pass

Installation Instructions

IMPORTANT: Read all instructions carefully and become familiar with all parts before installation.

STEP 1

Sill track (A) is over-cut.  Measure opening for sill track and cut 1/4" less than measurement to allow for wall jambs (B). Apply bead of silicone based caulk to bottom of sill track and position on curb with the low side to the inside of the unit. Leave equal space at each end.

STEP 2

Position the wall jambs (B) over the sill track (A) and press down to the curb.  Using a level, plumb wall jambs. Mark through the holes provided for anchoring. Drill 3/16" clearance holes and insert plastic anchors (C) for masonry applications or drill 1/3/48" tap holes for fiberglass and acrylic units.

STEP 3

Secure wall jambs (B) with #6 x 3/4" screws (D). Use bumpers (E) in the center holes of wall jambs. Install the bumpers (E) so that the inside panel of the by-pass will pocket into the wall jamb closest to the shower head.

STEP 4

Header (F) is over-cut. Measure for header and cut 1/3/48" less than opening. Place header down on top of wall jambs (B) with the rounded side facing out.

STEP 5

Hang the outside panel (G) by the rollers (H) on the tracks inside the header (F). Repeat for the inside panel.

NOTE: If unit is made with obscure glass, set panels so that the smoother side of glass is to the inside of unit.

STEP 6

Move panels (G) to closed position. To adjust a panel to be plumb with wall; remove the panel, reposition the roller (H) on bracket (I) as needed and re-hang panel.

STEP 7

With panels hung from header and plumb with walls, snap in bottom guides (J) under the ledges of the sill track (A). Lubricate lightly as needed.

STEP 8

Insert forked ends of towel bar brackets (K) into open ends of towel bars (L). Position towel bar assembly on panel and attach with #8-32 X 3/4" screws through holes provided.

NOTE:  The forked ends of the brackets may be spread slightly to ensure a snug fit.

STEP 9

Two optional finger pulls (N) are included.  If used they are attached using the #8-32 x 3/4" towel bar screws and are installed on the panel edges that pocket into the bumpers (E).

STEP 10

Caulk the ends of the sill track and all other areas exposed to water using a silicone based caulk or other suitable sealant that will prevent water leakage.
