The profile allows for adjustment up to 1 cm (total width from 119 to 120 cm) to accommodate slight wall irregularities.

Apply a continuous bead of mildew-resistant silicone sealant along the exterior base of the shower screen where it meets the shower tray/floor, and along the exterior vertical joint where the glass meets the wall profile. Allow the sealant to cure completely (typically 24-48 hours) before using the shower.
