Thanks for reply, unfortunately it was given second hand (although never used) so cannot return. wickes, being wickes are only too pleased to sell me another but seem strangely disinterested in supplying parts. kenbee

Should be a U shaped section which is fixed to wall and then the first panel of the door slides inside the U channel and is fixed with a couple of self tapping stainless steel screws on the inside edge.Channel needs silicon along it at installation to prevent leaking thru behind it.Wall should be vertical you fix too, though is room for minor adjustment when securing to channel.

Four fold bath screens are generally very similar if you follow this link you should be able to download or view a set off fitting instructions from this manufacturers website, selection list is at the bottom of the page http://www.simpsons-enclosures.co.uk/downloads.php.

You could just purchase coated or stainless fixing screws from a screw supplier, personally I would contact one of the manufacturers and see if they will send you, or allow you to purchase, a fitting kit for their product as it will have suitable screws and cover caps. The kits normally contain three screws for fixing the wall channel to the wall and three further small screws for attaching the screen to the wall channel. Also included are the instructions for adjusting and sealing the screen correctly to prevent trapped water and water leaks. The kit should not cost more than a few pounds.

Hope this helps
