Made installation of shower easy and stress free. Not being a plumber it allowed a bit of flexibility when installing the pipework in the wall. Had a slight leak when turning the water on after fitting the shower but as the connections are outside the wall it was just a case of tightening the fitting a little.
Helped me right out with slightly misaligned 1st fix behind tiles. Job done sorted. Quick delivery really great service. I'm very much an amateur DIYer and as a consequence had a leak which I could not see once the shower was holding the water pressure on the wet side, however this was related to the pipe work. Introduction You should now have 2 15mm copper pipes protruding from the wall at the intended location of the thermostatic bar mixer valve hot on the left, cold on the right at mm centres.

The wall plates are then slid over the pipes both are the same and the holes to be drilled are marked.
Tips of the trade If you put a small scaffold level across the wall plates resting on the flat edge you will ensure that the holes to be drilled are at either side of the pipework buried within the wall i. The holes are then drilled using a 6mm tile drill bit as shown. This type of drill bit is excellent for drilling ceramic tiles as its sharp arrow head design ensures it does not skid off the tile surface even without applying masking tape to the surface 1st.
PS If you have porcelain tiles or another type of hard tile you may need a more specialist drill bit.
