1. Construct the Stud Framing

Install the drain and supply pipes according to local plumbing codes.

IMPORTANT! Plan the shower area around the desired placement of the shelving unit. Ensure the

placement of the shelving unit will be free of obstructions (such as pipes or electrical boxes).

IMPORTANT! Before attaching the studs, ensure the studs are not warped.

Install two studs 7-1/2″(19.1 cm) apart on center at the desired shelving unit location.

Verify the studs are plumb. Plane the studs, if necessary.

Build the rest of the shower area out of 2x4 or 2x6 lumber according to local building codes.

Install the pipes, valves, and showerhead ﬁttings according to the plumbing manufacturer’s

instructions.

If applicable, install a watertight membrane to the ﬂoor.

Wrap and staple water barrier plastic sheeting into the stud pocket.

Place and staple water barrier plastic sheeting over the remaining studs.

Install the shower basin at this time. Refer to the shower basin manufacturer’s installation

instructions.

2. Prepare the Site

IMPORTANT! Select wall material that is water resistant (such as cement board) and meets local building

codes.

Install wall material to the entire shower area, including the stud pocket.

NOTE: Keep in mind the length of the column is 60″(152.4 cm) when determining the desired height.

Determine the desired vertical position of the column at the stud pocket location, then draw a pencil

mark at the base of the column.

From the marked point, draw a rectangle 60″(152.4 cm) in height and 5-1/8″(13 cm) in width.

Verify the drawn perimeter is plumb and level.

Using a keyhole saw, carefully cut along the marked perimeter lines to remove the wall material.

3. Assemble the Unit

Install Shelves

Insert a ﬁller strip down into the left and right channel.

With the tab of the clip pointing up, snap a clip above each ﬁller strip.

NOTE: The top ﬁller strip will extend above the unit.

Repeat this process for the remaining strips and clips.

Temporarily insert a shelf above each set of clips to verify the clips are properly aligned. Adjust the

clips as needed.

Remove the shelves and set aside.

Inspect each channel, making sure the ﬁller strips and clips are ﬂush against each other.

Mark the top ﬁller strips 1/16″(2 mm) below the edge of the columns.

Remove the marked ﬁller strips.

Cut at each mark with a 32-tooth per inch hacksaw.

Reinsert the cut ﬁller strips.

Snap the top cap into place on the top of the unit.

Partially thread a screw into each of the four screw holes on the top cap.

WARNING: Risk of product damage. Do not overtighten the screws. Once the rubber seal in the

top cap is compressed, the tightening resistance will increase.

Alternating between screws, completely tighten the screws to secure the top cap to the column.

4. Complete the Site

Verify Fit

Temporarily insert the unit into the stud pocket.

Vertically center the unit, then verify the attachment ﬂanges overlap the wall material a minimum of

1/4″(6 mm).

IMPORTANT! If a minimum of 1/4″(6 mm) overlap does not exist: Set the unit aside, remove the wall

material, then repeat the option selected in the ″Prepare the Site″section. If a minimum of 1/4″overlap

exists: Set the unit aside, then proceed with the installation.

Tile the Shower Area

IMPORTANT! When planning the tile layout, the tile must be ﬂush with the edge of the wall material

at the cutout location for the unit.

Plan the tile installation for the walls, then mark the plan on the wall material.

Attach the tile with tile adhesive or thin-set mortar designed for wet environments.

Allow the tile adhesive or thin-set mortar to cure.

Apply grout to the tile, except for the expansion joints in the alcove.

Wipe the area with a damp sponge, allow the grout to set, then buff the tile with a soft cloth.

5. Secure the Unit

Apply 100% silicone sealant in the groove of the backside of the column and perimeter of the top

cap, as illustrated.

Starting from the bottom and working up, insert the column into the cutout.

NOTE: When the screws on the caps are tightened, the attached clamps will ﬂip up and the column will

become ﬂush with the wall material.

Tighten the two screws at the top cap and the bottom cap until the unit is ﬂush against the wall

material. Do not overtighten the screws.

Tape off the area adjacent to the groove where the tile and the column meet. This will help create a

straight, uniform bead of silicone sealant.

Apply a bead of silicone sealant, which is color-matched to the grout, around the perimeter of the

column where the column and the wall material meet.

Remove the tape.

Allow the sealant to cure before proceeding.

Snap the four shelves into place on top of the clips.

Snap the Kohler label into the top cap and the base cover to the bottom of the column, as shown.
