Configuration et installation
The Mexen Velar Duo shower enclosure requires assembly and screw-mounted installation. It is recommended that two people perform the installation due to the weight and size of the glass panels.

- Mur Profile Placement: Positionner le mur profiles against the wall where the enclosure will be installed. Use a spirit level to ensure they are perfectly vertical. Mark the drilling points. The adaptive wall profiles are designed to compensate for minor wall unevenness.
- Perçage et fixation : Drill holes at the marked points and insert appropriate wall anchors. Secure the wall profiles to the wall using the provided screws.
- Fixed Panel Installation: Carefully place the fixed glass panels into the wall profiles. Ensure they are properly seated and secured according to the detailed instructions in the mounting kit.
- Sliding Door Assembly: Assemble the sliding door mechanism, including rollers and guides, onto the moving glass panel.
- Sliding Door Installation: Mount the sliding door onto the tracks. Test the sliding action to ensure it moves smoothly.
- Handle and Seal Installation: Attach the handles to the sliding door. Install the magnetic seals along the edges of the door and fixed panels to ensure a watertight closure.
- Ajustements finaux : Make any necessary adjustments to ensure the door slides freely and seals correctly. Apply silicone sealant to the exterior joints between the profiles and the wall/shower tray as instructed to prevent water leakage.

Entretien
Regular cleaning and proper care will ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your Mexen shower enclosure.
- Nettoyage des vitres : The glass panels feature a self-cleaning nano-coating that minimizes limescale buildup. For daily cleaning, wipe the glass with a soft cloth and warm water after each use. For deeper cleaning, use a mild, non-abrasive glass cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges.
- Profile Nettoyage: The gun gray brushed profiles are resistant to detergents. Clean them with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaning agent. Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or solvents, as these can damage the finish.
- Entretien des joints : Periodically check the magnetic seals for wear or damage. Clean them gently with warm soapy water. Replace worn seals to maintain water tightness.
- Roller and Track Maintenance: Keep the sliding door rollers and tracks free from dirt and debris. Clean them regularly to ensure smooth operation. A small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the rollers if they become stiff.
