How to assemble a shower cabin

Due to its functionality, shower cabins are gaining increasing popularity, gradually reassigning ordinary baths from the market. The only disadvantage of this element of the bathroom is the high cost of installation work, but also with this problem you can cope if you do a cab in your own.

To fulfill this work you will need:

  • electric drill;
  • level;
  • wrench;
  • silicone sealant;
  • galvanized screws;
  • construction pistol;
  • adjustable key;
  • gloves, rubber washers and sealing rings;
  • screwdriver.

Since the area of \u200b\u200bbathrooms are not very high, it is recommended to build the main elements in more spacious premises, and work on their connection to a single design directly at the installation site. The first step is to install the pallet legs and the installation of its frame. To do this, turn the pallet on the side or upside down, take the studs that are included, and screw them into place specified on the instructions. Secure them with nuts and put on top of the metal frame so that its component elements intersect in the form of a cross. Secure it with nuts, put on the screen fastener and screw the plastic legs on the end. Install the siphon and drain corrugation.

After making sure that the pallet and the new siphon do not proceed, transfer the construction to the bathroom. The installation site of the shower must be pre-cleaned and aligned. With the help of the level, set the legs so that the upper part of the pallet was perfectly smooth. Fix them in this position with the help of control nuts. Connect the drain corrugation with the sewer and set the decorative screen closing the bottom of the pallet.

The next step is the mounting of the back wall. To do this, install it on the finished pallet so that the openings drilled in it and the pallet coincide. Using bolts and wrench, connect the elements of the structure between themselves. Do not tighten the bolts immediately. First, make sure that all planting elements have become on their places and only after that heal them. After that, in the same way attach the roof. To prevent water leakage, it is recommended to treat the place of their connections to the sealant.

It has come to install doors and other glass panels. Carefully inspect the guides to determine which of them should be attached to the ceiling, and what - to the pallet. As a rule, they differ in thickness - the top is a little wider below. Attaching them to the shower cabin case, install the side glass panels, which fix with glass clips or screws. It is not necessary to twist the fastener too much, since the large pressure can cause damage to the tempered glass.

For opening doors in the shower, special rollers are used, which are inserted into the grooves located in the upper and lower guides and ensure its smooth movement. Using the screws, secure the rollers on the door, then insert it into the shower cabin. Check out the slide if the door opens too hard - adjust the position of the lower rollers using a special adjusting screw. For a dense adjoining of the doors to each other on the end of each of them, put on special magnetized lining, which are included with the cab. With the help of reinforced hoses, connect the shower cabin to the water supply system.

7
The final stage of the shower assembly process is a set of works on checking and connecting electrical devices - radio, telephone, backlight and ventilation. After that, secure the internal fittings. Check the stability of the assembled cabin, if everything is in order - leave it for a while so that the sealant is finally hardened.
