Quick Steps

- Insert glass doors (lift up, then drop down).
Assembly FAQs
- Q: Can I use a power drill? A: We highly recommend using a hand screwdriver. PVC is durable but can strip if over-tightened by a drill.
- Q: The doors are hard to slide. A: Check that the Top Track (deep groove) is on top. If reversed, the glass will bind.
- Q: How do I clean the enclosure? A: Use mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers.
- Q: Can these be stacked? A: Yes! Use our stacking spacers (sold separately) to ensure proper airflow between units.
- Q: There is a gap between the glass doors. A: A small gap is normal for sliding doors. To prevent escapes, we recommend using our sliding door lock.
