Install controls within 18 in of the entrance to a 36 in square shower.

The question is whether "inch square" is the same as "square inch". That being the case "36 in square" would, in metres, be "2,32 m2", right?

Instalar (instale) os controlos a 45 cm da entrada de uma cabina de duche quadrada de 90 cm
Julgo ser isto. Outro termo habitualmente utilizado para "cabina de duche" é "polibã/poliban". Quanto a "inch square", concordo com o que a Teresa e o Marcos dizem, e neste caso "square" refere-se à cabina de duche e não à medida. Com a forma geométrica de um quadrado, ou seja, com quatro lados iguais, basta indicar a medida de um dos lados. Ver ligação.
