Check to make sure that the baluster gaskets in both rails have been removed and that the top and bottom glass gaskets are in the right position. The deep glass gasket goes in the top rail, and the shallow glass gasket goes in the bottom rail. Use soap and water along the edges of the glass to help get it engaged in the gaskets.

Make sure you have removed the “baluster gaskets” and have inserted the “glass gaskets”. It is important to use liquid soap and water on both the glass gaskets and the top and bottom of the glass panel to help slide the glass panels into the glass gaskets. Always use two people to install glass panels. During installation, handle glass from the sides, not the bottom. Insert the glass panel completely inside the handrail gasket first and then lower into the base rail gasket. Ensure that the glass panel is completely seated in the base rail gasket. Rinse off soap.
