Side Lite Filler
VHB Foam Tape
3. Locate the Bottom Track
NOTE: When installing a 60" (152.4 cm) door, the hinge side lite is the narrow piece of glass with 4 holes
in it.
Cut length of the supplied VHB foam tape to match the width of the hinge side lite (if necessary).
Remove the backing from the tape and, starting adjacent with the end of the track on the hinge side,
apply the tape to the flat top of the bottom track. Position the tape about 3/8" (1 cm) from the
groove in the bottom track, centered on the flat portion of the bottom track.
NOTE: Position the bottom track far enough toward the outside (dry side) of the shower threshold to
allow the strike jamb or strike lite filler to sit behind the bottom track. The back edge of the bottom track
should be at least 1" (2.5 cm) from the inside edge of the shower threshold to allow the rest of the door to
sit on the threshold.
Position the bottom track on the threshold with the slanted section toward the inside (wet side) of
the shower.
Make sure the front edge of the bottom track is an equal distance from the front edge of the shower
ledge at all points.
Temporarily secure the bottom track to the ledge with masking tape (do not apply the tape over the
VHB foam tape).
Mark the location of the bottom track with a soft pencil.
Position the side lite filler over the VHB foam tape and install it into the groove in the bottom
track.
