Preparation
1. Prior to installation, examine all boxes and packages for shipping damage and compare the
piece count with your packing slip. After opening all boxes and packages read this introduction
carefully. Check that all of the parts are included in the package by checking off the
components on the parts list. If the unit has been damaged, has a finishing defect, or has
missing parts, please contact our customer support department within 3 business days of the
delivery date. Please note that DreamLine
®
will not replace any damaged products or
missing parts free of charge after 3 business days or if the product has been installed.
Please contact DreamLine
®
if with any questions and please provide an order number, job
name or other proof of purchase to help identify the original order.
2. Install all of the required plumbing and drainage before installing the shower base. Use a
competent and licensed (if required by local code) plumber for all plumbing installation.
3. Shower bases must be installed by a licensed plumber. Please note that you should
consult your local building codes with questions on installation compliance standards.
Building and plumbing codes may vary by location and DreamLine
®
is not responsible for
code compliance standards for your project.
4. Make sure that prior to the installation the installation surface is leveled and solid and will be
able to support the total weight of the unit. Also make sure the walls are at right angles. While
some adjustment in leveling of the tray is possible, irregular installation surface level or
improper angle of side walls will result in serious problems for your installation. Please note
that some adjustments may be necessary during the installation process.
5. Center drain configurations are centered on the width only. See technical drawing tables
for drain locations.
6. Drain not included with this product. The drain opening is 3-3/8” in diameter and accepts a
standard 2” compression fitted drain.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Dimensions provided are for reference only. Measure the actual shower tray
before installation. This includes overall dimensions and drain location.

Shower Base Installation - Preparation
1. Ensure that the floor and the studs
are at right angles.
Provide a 5”×5” opening in the sub-
floor for the drain.
The 2” PVC waste pipe should
extend above the surface of the
sub-floor according to the drain
installation instructions and the
height of the Shower base.
Refer to the product drawings and
tables in this installation manual for
the drain location.

2. Install the shower drain (NOT
INCLUDED) according to the
drain installation manual
(supplied with the drain).
(Fig 2)
Fig 2
3. Place the tray into the designated
position so that the Drain cutout drops
around the Drain Pipe and butt the
Shower Base up against the studs.
(Fig 3)
Lower the base over the drain pipe
and set it into place against the studs.

4. Level the tray and place marks on the
studs above the upper edge of the tile
flange.
(Fig 4)
5. Mix the bedding material (Mortar,
cement-sand mix, etc.) Concrete
or plaster is not recommended.
Apply enough bedding material
to support the entire bottom of
the shower base. This will add
additional stability and prevent the
base from shifting position.

6. After the bedding material has been
poured and
before
it sets, place the
shower base into the position with the
drain assembly sliding over the PVC
waste pipe. It will be necessary to push
the shower base until the top of the tile
flange aligns with the marks drawn on
the studs and the front edge is
contacting the rough floor along the
entire length of the shower base. Ensure
that the base is level in all directions.
You may need to use shims to hold the
tray level until the bedding fully sets.
Remove all excess mortar.
(Fig 6)
7. Allow the bedding material to completely harden before applying weight to the bottom of the
shower base.
Install the cement board (or the wallboard) above the tile flanges and secure it to the studs.
Put the tiles (or other finishing wall material) over the cement board leaving 1/8” gap between
the bottom of the tile or wall kit and the shower base. Use caulk to fill the gap.

Product Maintenance
BASES and BACKWALLS: To ensure long lasting life for your acrylic base and/or back walls:
wipe them off after each use with a soft cloth. To clean the acrylic base or back walls use
non-abrasive sprays or cream-based cleaners. Avoid the use of aerosol spray cleaners.
Never use abrasive cleansers, metal brushes or scrapers that could scratch or dull the surface.
GLASS: To ensure long-lasting life for your glass shower products: wipe them off after each use
with a soft cloth. Rinse and wipe off the glass using either a soft cloth or a squeegee to prevent
soap buildup and water spots (Hard water can etch the surface of the glass over time if left to
dry). To prevent scratching the surface: never use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products that
contain scouring agents. Never use bristle brushes or abrasive sponges that may scratch the
surface.
HARDWARE: To ensure a long-lasting finish: wipe off the metal parts after each use with a soft
cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products containing ammonia, bleach or acid. If
accidentally used, rinse the surface as soon as possible to prevent damage to the finish
(peeling or corrosion). After cleaning the polished finishes, rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with
a soft cloth.
Clean stainless-steel surfaces at least once a week. When applying stainless steel cleaner or
polish to stainless steel hardware, work with (not across) the grain. Never use an abrasive
sponge or cloth, steel wool or wired brush as these may permanently scratch the surfaces.
NOTE: To maximize the life of your door, it is important to regularly inspect the glass
and other hardware for misalignment, proper attachment, and/or damage. Contact
DreamLine with any questions or concerns.

Product maintenance
To ensure long lasting life for your acrylic back walls, wipe them off after each use with a soft
cloth. To clean the acrylic back walls use non-abrasive sprays or cream based cleaners. Never
use abrasive cleansers, metal brushes or scrapers that could scratch or dull the surface.
Acrylic cleaning procedure:
Acrylic should be cleaned with warm water and a clean, non-abrasive cloth. If desired, a
mild, non-abrasive detergent may also be used. Use only light pressure when cleaning.
Avoid rubbing dirt or grit into the surface. Turn the cloth often and replace with a clean
cloth frequently. Dry by blotting gently with a clean, dry cloth.
DO NOT USE:
Window cleaning sprays, alcohol, kitchen abrasive compounds, or solvents (such as acetone,
gasoline, or thinners). Do not use ammonia based cleaning solutions on the acrylic as it will
damage the surface.
How do you get scratches out of Acrylic?
For light scratches, use a buffing compound such as a car wax. Use a buffer or lightly polish
the surface by hand until scratches disappear.

Product Maintenance
BASES and BACKWALLS: To ensure a long life for your acrylic back walls: wipe them off after
each use with a soft cloth. To clean the acrylic back walls use non-abrasive sprays or cream based
cleaners. Never use abrasive cleansers, metal brushes or scrapers that could scratch or dull the
surface.
GLASS: To ensure long lasting life for your glass shower products: wipe them off after each use
with a soft cloth. Rinse and wipe off the glass using either a soft cloth or a squeegee to prevent
soap buildup and water spots. To prevent scratching the surface: never use abrasive cleaners and
cleaning products that contain scouring agents. Never use bristle brushes or abrasive sponges.
HARDWARE: To ensure a long lasting finish: wipe off the metal parts after each use with a soft
cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products containing ammonia, bleach or acid. If

(Enigma Series)
•
• To prevent damage or serious injury, Do Not lean against the installed panel/door/glass.
• To prevent damage or serious injury: Do Not attempt to lift or move a heavy lite of glass
alone. Use an assistant and/or a professional grade glass suction cup.
• The installation of some models may require drilling down into the threshold. Contact the

T
EMPERED GLASS WARNING
• Your Shower Door Glass Could Shatter Without Warning if Improperly Installed or
Mishandled
• Do Not install or operate a shower door if the glass has chipped corners, slivered edges or
is otherwise damaged and/or has been dropped or banged into a hard surface such as
tile, marble or glass.
• The main causes of tempered glass breakage are:
o Improper handling, storage or installation
o Misuse/abuse
o Lack of maintenance
o Failure to replace damaged glass
o Improper handling during storage, unpacking and installation:
o Corners and edges are the most susceptible area to damage on a lite of tempered
glass and should be protected and handled with care during storage, unpacking,
installation and operation. A concentrated point of pressure or impact with a surface
harder than itself may cause the tempered glass to shatter. The tempered glass may
release immediately, within several hours or even days later.
o Incorrect installation of door hardware, rollers, hinges, channels, stopper or glass:
o Improper installation may include: loose hardware and/or lack of proper gaskets
between the hardware and glass. Additionally, improper al
ignment of guide rails, wall
profiles or other hardware during installation or operation may place stress on the
glass edges and cause it to break.
o This product must be installed by a professional and experienced installer familiar with
the safe handling of tempered glass.
o Improper use of this product:
o Aggressively opening or closing the door may cause trauma to the glass, which can
lead to
breakage. This may occur immediately or hours or even days later.
o The shower door hardware and glass should be inspected periodically:
Instruct the homeowner how to perform a periodic inspection of the shower
hardware and glass - some minor adjustments may be necessary based upon
the use (or misuse) of the shower door. Ensure that the hardware remains tight
and that the door alignment and o
peration are correct. Any adjustments
should be made upon discovery to prevent damage to the product.
Additional considerations should be given to the installation of frameless
tempered glass products in households with young children or an elderly
person due to an increased chance of improper handling. In such cases,
alternatives such as shower curtains or grab bars should be considered.
GENERAL PREPARATION
• After opening all boxes and packages, read this introduction carefully. Check that all the
items are included in the package by marking off the components on the “Detailed
Diagram of Product Components” page. Examine all boxes and packages for shipping
damage. If the unit has been damaged, has a finishing defect, or is missing parts; please
contact our Customer Support depart
ment within
3 business days of the delivery date. Please note that DreamLine® will not replace any
damaged products or missing parts free of charge after 3 business days or if the
product has been installed. Please contact DreamLine® if you have any questions.
• Please note that you should refer to your local building codes with questions on
installation compliance standards. Building and plumbi
ng codes may vary by
location, and DreamLine® is not responsible for code compliance standards for your
project and will not accept any returns.
• If this unit is going to be installed in a new construction, install all the required plumbing
and drainage before installing the shower. Use a competent and licensed (if required
by local code) plumber for all plumbing installation.
• Make sure that prior to beginning the installation, the surfaces are leveled and solid and
will be able to support the t
otal weight of the unit. Also make sure the walls are at right
angles. Irregular installation surface level, radius corners or improper angle of side walls
will result in serious problems for your installation. Please not that some adjustments and
drilling will be necessary during the installation process.
• Protect all primary surfaces of the product during installation. Never set your glass down
directly onto a tile floor. Leave corner protectors in place until it is necessary to remove
them. Always use a piece of wood or cardboard to protect the bottom edge and corners
of the glass prior to and during installation.
• This unit must be installed upon a finished threshold and against finished walls.
•
DreamLine
®
shower doors are not designed to be installed into a fiberglass surround due
to the radius corners and lack of a solid surface to mount the hardware.
WARNING: TO AVOID THE RISK OF DAMAGE OR INJURY:
• Follow all recommendations and requirements as shown in the installation
instructions.
• Perform a thorough inspection of the glass and all parts for any damage prior to
installation. Any damage to tempered glass can cause breakage.
Do Not install damaged glass!
• Do Not install or operate a shower or tub door if the glass has chipped corners, slivered
edges or is otherwise damaged. Do Not install or operate a shower or tub door that has
been dropped or banged into a hard surface such as tile, marble or glass.
• CAUTION: Contact with any hard surface can damage tempered glass and cause it to
shatter.
• This product uses tempered glass. Glass cannot be cut after it has been tempered.

Product Maintenance
PRIME Maintenance Checklist
Maintenance Checklist
◻ Inspect the Roller Assemblies; tighten if necessary
◻ Test operation of the doors; adjust rollers if necessary for smooth operation
◻ Inspect Handles; tighten if necessary
◻ Inspect glass clips; tighten if necessary
◻ Inspect and replace damaged or missing Vinyl Seals.
◻ Remove Vinyl Seals to inspect the edges of the glass for concealed damage.
Damaged glass must be replaced!
◻ Inspect silicone application. Repalce as necessary to prevent leakage. (refer to the manufacture’s
recommendations on the proper application of their product).
To maximize the life of your door, it is important to regularly inspect
the glass and other hardware for misalignment, proper attachment,
and/or damage. Contact DreamLine
®
with any questions or concerns.
NOTE
BASES and BACKWALLS: To ensure long lasting life for your acrylic back walls: wipe them off
after each use with a soft cloth. To clean the acrylic back walls use non-abrasive sprays or cream
based cleaners. Avoid the use of aerosol spray cleaners. Never use abrasive cleansers, metal
brushes or scrapers that could permanently scratch or dull the surface.
GLASS: To ensure long lasting life for your glass shower products: wipe them off after each use
with a soft cloth. Rinse and wipe off the glass using either a soft cloth or a squeegee to prevent
soap buildup and water spots (Hard water can etch the surface of the glass over time if left to dry).
To prevent scratching the surface: never use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products that contain
scouring agents. Never use bristle brushes or abrasive sponges that may scratch the surface of the
glass.
HARDWARE: To ensure a long lasting finish: wipe off all metal parts after each use with a soft
cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products containing ammonia, bleach or acid. If
accidentally used, rinse the surface as soon as possible to prevent damage to the finish (peeling or
corrosion). After cleaning the polished finishes, rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft clean-
cloth.
Clean stainless steel surfaces at least once a week. When applying stainless steel cleaner or polish
to stainless steel hardware, work with the grain (not across the grain). Never use an abrasive
sponge or cloth, steel wool or wired brush as these may permanently scratch the surfaces.

Troubleshooting
Prior to contacting DreamLine® Customer Service, please have the following information
readily available:
- Purchase Order Information
- Name, PO Number, Dealer/Vendor Name, etc.
- SKU/Model Number (see Pages 23-25)
- Factory Part Information (see Pages 23-25)
Problem/Symptom Suggested Solution
Missing Parts
•Check all shipping/packaging material for missing parts/components.
•If not found, contact DreamLine Customer Support [1-855-831-2126] to order
factory part replacement.
Magnetic Strike Vinyl (#07) is not creating a tight
seal.
•Inspect the Magnetic Vinyl Seal (#07) for proper installation so that the
magnets attract and create a tight seal.
•See Step 10 for an image of the correct installation method.
Water Leakage: underneath Bottom Guide Rail (#03)
•Make certain that the bottom rail is tight to the threshold and that silicone is
creating a seal along the entire length of the bottom rail.
•If the bottom rail is not making contact with the threshold, it may be necessary to
redo Steps 4-5 to create a better seal.
Water Leakage: Inline Panel/Door Glass (#05/04)
•Starting from the bottom, confirm that the Push-in Glazing Vinyl (#09) is
correctly inserted into the glass profile. [see Fig 7]
•If possible, direct the flow of water away from the area.
Door Glass (#04) is not rolling smoothly/closing
tightly.
•Use a #2 phillips screwdriver to evenly adjust the Top Wheel Assemblies
(#17a) until the Door Glass (#04) rolls smoothly and tightly closes. [see Fig 9.4]
•The top wheel assemblies for both doors will need to be adjusted so that the
magnetic vinyls will create a tight seal when the doors are closed.
Inline Panel Glass (#05) shakes/rattles while in
operation.
•Starting from the bottom, confirm that the Push-in Glazing Vinyl (#09)
is
installed tightly between the Inline Panel Glass (#05) and Glass Profile (#02).
•Inspect the Glass Clips (#16) for correc
t installation and tighten if necessary.
