### Things to Know For This Installation

* Read over the provided material prior to the start of your installation.
* This project requires a minimum of two people.
* Please note, for best results store glass hardware at room temperature (68°F+ ) up to the point of install. Cold weather can cause the rubber material to shrink and lose flexibility and grip. This could cause the glass panel to slip and require retightening in the future. Installation during warmer weather is ideal.
* When tightening the glass clips, be sure to tighten by hand, as power tools\
  can damage the screws.

* While one person holds the glass in place, begin reattaching the other glass clip half
* Use the 3/16" Allen wrench to tighten each bolt snugly

*Note: It is helpful to tighten each glass clip until snug, & then go back and retighten them until they are very tight. This will help keep the panel straight.*
