Glass Warehouse B084BRV7S7 BF Shower Enclosure Stationary Glass Panel
Installation Guide
BEFORE YOU START
The most fragile parts of tempered glass panels are the corners. Therefore, it
is critical you have the rubber blocks in place so the glass never touches the
tile surface you are installing onto. Please make sure the glass is always on
blocks while out of the packaging prior/during install.
Rubber block is provided in your hardware pack however you can use wood,
cardboard or other rubber products to protect against breakage.
Silicon is not provided this will need to be purchased separately. We recommend using clear, mold resistant silicon which be purchased at your local hardware store.
The items included for this shower door model are listed below. This model ships in 2 packages:
- Fixed panel
- Hardware pack – (3 mounting clips)
Install Fixed Panel
-
On the wall where the fixed panel is to be placed, use a spirit level to mark a level vertical line.
- This line is where you will be attaching the 2 clips to the wall.
- TIP: We recommend using a pencil so this can be easily removed.
-
Mark the center point for the two clips.
- Top clip: measure 50 inches from the tub up along the vertical line and mark this point.
- Bottom clip: measure 8 inches from the tub up along the vertical line and mark this point.
- The third clip for the bottom should be placed 31” from the wall.
NOTE: If you are fixing the bottom clip to a fiberglass bathtub edge, use a 1/8ʺ drill bit to predrill the hole rather than 1/4ʺ tile drill bit. You will not use the green wall anchor but rather screw the clip directly into the tub edge.
-
Drill clips to the wall / floor.
- Drill holes using a ¼” tile drill bit and insert the plugs provided.
- Place clip over hole and drill in screws to secure the clip. Make sure these are tightly secured to wall.
-
Set the fixed panel in place.
- Place the 1/8” thick rubber block provided on the tub surface 1 ½ inches from the edge closest to wall, place the 1/16” rubber block inside the clip on the bathtub, this is to prevent the glass touching the bathtub or clip where all the weight is. No blocks are required in the clips on the wall. There are extra rubber blocks in case your tub is not level. These rubber blocks are found in the small yellow envelope stapled to your instructions.
- Carefully place the fixed panel on the rubber blocks and in bottom clip and slot the glass into the clips on wall.
- IMPORTANT: The most fragile parts of the glass panels are the corners. Therefore, it is critical you have the rubber blocks in place so the glass never touches the tile surface you are installing onto.
-
Ensure the fixed panel is level.
- On the glass edge furthest from the wall use a spirit level to make sure the fixed panel is level and in line.
- TIP: Use additional rubber blocks on either existing blocks to raise/drop the fixed panel if required.
Silicone Fixed Panel
IMPORTANT: Siliconing your panel is essential as not only does this prevent your panel from leaking water it is also imperative to the integrity and strength of the shower enclosure.
- Silicone the wall and bathtub surface of the fixed panel.
- TIP: Spraying the silicone with soapy water AFTER applying the silicone and using a spatula of some kind to remove the silicone residue will give you a nice clean and professional finish.
- Once you have completed the silicone this will take approx. 24 hours to set.

EnduroShield makes your cleaning easier and less frequent; however it is recommended that you continue to clean the surfaces regularly.
Maintaining the Treated Surface
For best results simply drying the glass with a squeegee or towel after each
use will help keep the glass clean and reduce mineral spots forming. The glass
needs to be cleaned every few weeks using a damp microfiber cloth and a mild
detergent to
break down soaps, oils, and conditioners on the glass. General glass cleaners
are also suitable, however most of these are finishing agents rather than
cleaners, and are an added expense that is not required.
Hard Water Maintenance
In hard water areas, or areas where water drops dry and leave a noticeable dust mark, a build of minerals may occur on the protective treatment. While these may not be removed as easily with the mild detergent, mild acids will often remove the marks quickly. As needed white vinegar should be used to wipe down the glass. Keep in mind the vinegar may be diluted with water, however dilution reduces the effectiveness.
Spray vinegar onto the glass and allow to soak for several minutes. This should dissolve any mineral deposits that have built up on the glass surface. A damp microfiber cloth should then be used to wipe over the surface. For extreme hard water areas we recommended using undiluted vinegar every week or so as a cleaning option to reduce this build up on the surface, rather than allowing the build up to continue over a long period of time.
Caution: Prohibited Products
Note: these may damage the treatment and void any warranty.
- Avoid the use of any abrasives or polishes including water spot removers, toothpaste, polishes, rough, or gritty substances
- Avoid the use of acids or alkalis that you would not want in contact with your skin for an extended period of time
- Avoid products such as Comet, Ajax, Jiff or Cerium Oxide which polish back the actual substrate
- Avoid the use of any harsh or chemical cleaners, with correct maintenance these are never required.
Approved Cleaning Products
The below products have been tested for compatibility with EnduroShield, however there are no specific products that must be used. We feel you should not be required to purchase extra products in order to keep your glass clean. With correct maintenance, all you need for clean glass beyond 10 years is a squeegee, a mild liquid dish soap, and white vinegar.
Any product that does not fall into the prohibited categories listed above will be fine, and below is a short list of acceptable products:
- Windex
- SprayWay (or other alcohol based foaming cleaners)
- Scrubbing Bubbles (or other automatic leave-to-dry daily shower cleaners)
- 7th Generation, Dawn (or other mild eco friendly cleaners)
- CLR (Calcium Lime Rust)
- Mr. Clean Magic Eraser (when damp)
It should be noted that with any cleaner used on the EnduroShield surface a thorough rinse with clean water should follow immediately. Although these cleaners can be used, EnduroShield is designed to be an ‘easy clean coating’ that does not require harsh or toxic cleaning chemicals to maintain the surface effectively.
If for any reason the recommended maintenance has not been followed for some
time, just as it took time for the build up to occur, it will take time to
remove the debris from the protected glass surface. This can most commonly be
achieved using undiluted white vinegar dampened on a Magic Eraser, or CLR on a
Magic Eraser.
Depending on the severity of the build up this may take multiple attempts, but
once the glass is clean again it will perform like new. Should you have any
queries regarding the cleaning of your treated surfaces please contact
EnduroShield.
