Does this product come with a warranty?

Can I install this myself?

While it is possible, professional installation is recommended to ensure a watertight seal and optimal performance, especially for the sealing against the bath and walls.

Troubleshooting

Water leaking from the sides or bottom of the screen.

Ensure the screen is correctly adjusted and fitted snugly against the bath edge and any adjacent wall. Re-apply sealant if necessary. Check that the seal is intact and properly seated.

Screen does not swing smoothly.

Verify that no obstructions are preventing the screen from moving. Ensure all fittings are secure but not overtightened, which could impede movement. Check for any debris caught in the hinge mechanism.

Chrome profile appears dull or stained.

Clean the chrome with a soft cloth and a dedicated chrome cleaner or a mild soap and water solution. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.

Glass screen is difficult to clean.

Use a non-abrasive glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth. For stubborn marks, a paste of baking soda and water can be gently applied, then rinsed and polished.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Unpack all components carefully, ensuring the screen, profile, and seal are present.
  2. Identify the correct orientation for your L-shaped bath (left-hand or right-hand) due to the reversible design.
  3. Follow the provided installation manual closely. Proper sealing against the bath edge and wall is crucial for water containment. Professional installation is recommended for optimal results and to ensure a watertight finish.

Care:

  • Wipe down the profile and seal after each use to prevent water spots and soap scum buildup.
  • Periodically check the seals and profile for any signs of wear or damage, and replace if necessary to maintain water tightness.
