CAUTION: Risk of personal injury. Always wear safety glasses when cutting materials.
IMPORTANT! If your shower has a curve in the corners where they meet the sidewalls, be sure to measure from wall to wall above the curves. Failure to measure above the curve or angle could result in the bottom track being cut too short.
Trim the edges off the insert in the last 2″ (5.1 cm) of one end of the insert.
