   I've done Holcam neo-angles and other brands also. Good idea first to study all the parts and make sure you understand exactly how they go together. The parts that form the door jamb have some adjustability and you need to make sure things are going to land in the right range. The center piece of the curb may already be cut to exact length, or it may not, depending on whether you specified the shower pan model # when you ordered.

   The units I have installed more recently are Agalite and they call for a numbered drill bit when drilling for the screws that connect metal to metal. Don't wing it, go get the right bit, otherwise the screw heads may twist off. I stopped using my impact drivers to drive those screws and often just drive them by hand.

   If you need to drill porcelain or granite tile, make sure you have the right bits for that.

   Caulk the outside of the curb with clear silicone, and the insides of the wall jambs.

   Slow and steady wins the race.

   Thank you for the info. I purchased the pan and the glass from the same wholesaler so it sounds like I am off to a good start.
