- Screwdriver
- Measuring tape
- Level
- Silicone sealant
- Pencil
- Safety goggles and gloves

Step-by-Step Installation Guide
- Prepare the Area: Begin by clearing the shower area and removing any debris or obstructions. Ensure the walls and shower base are clean and dry.
- Measure and Mark: Use the measuring tape to confirm the dimensions of your shower opening. Mark the positions for the door frame and panels using a pencil. Double-check these measurements for accuracy.
-
Install the Door Frame:
- Align the bottom track of the frame with the marks you created. Ensure it's level and secure it using screws.
- Attach the side frames, ensuring they fit snugly against the walls. Use a level to ensure they are perfectly vertical.
- Secure the top frame in place, checking the alignment with the side frames.
-
Install the Glass Panels:
- Carefully insert the first glass panel into the track. Ensure it's securely seated in the bottom and top tracks.
- Repeat the process for the remaining panels, ensuring each panel is aligned correctly and secure.
- Use the included clamps or brackets to stabilize the panels, if necessary.
- Secure the Panels: Once all panels are in place, use the drill to secure the panels to the frame using screws. Tighten them securely but avoid over-tightening, which could damage the glass.
- Apply Silicone Sealant: Apply a thin line of silicone sealant along the edges of the frame where it meets the walls and the shower base. This will prevent water leakage and provide additional stability.
- Final Adjustments: Check that the doors open and close smoothly. Make necessary adjustments to ensure proper alignment and operation.
- Clean Up: Remove any excess sealant and clean the glass panels with a glass cleaner. Ensure all tools and debris are cleared from the area.
Tips for a Successful Installation
- Always wear safety goggles and gloves to protect yourself from sharp glass edges.
- Get assistance when handling large glass panels to prevent injury and damage.
- Consult the BLUE-SKY installation manual for any specific instructions related to your model.
