Fitting Instructions
-
Measure up 1000mm from the top of the skirting board and mark a horizon tal line across using a straight edge. Check with spirit level (Fig 1).
-
Measure length of wall and cut one strip to run across the top of the skirting and one strip that will be positioned with top edge aligned with horizontal line. Apply adhesive to back faces of the 2 strips (Fig 2).
-
Offer strips to wall and secure with nail gun (Fig 3).
-
Measure distance between horizontal strips at both ends and in the middle to check they are parallel. Cut 4 off vertical strips (Fig 4).
-
Apply adhesive to 2 strips. Offer the 2 strips between horizontal strips at each end of the run (Fig 5).
-
Mark centres of both vertical end strips. Measure distance between the centre marks and divide this measurement by 3 (Fig 6).
Example:
-
Distance between centres = 1932mm
-
1932mm divided by 3 = 644mm centres for other 2 vertical strips
-
From the centreline on side vertical strip, measure and mark centres for vertical strips onto top and bottom horizontal strips (Fig 7).
-
Measure and mark centre location on each end of remaining vertical strips (Fig 8).
-
Apply adhesive to vertical strips and offer strips up so centre marks on strips line up with centre marks on horizontal strips. Secure with nail gun (Fig 9).
-
Measure and cut capping moulding to correct length. Apply adhesive and offer onto top strip. Secure with nail gun (Fig 10).
-
Fill any gaps and joints with decorators caulk.
-
Wipe off any excess with a damp cloth. Sand to a smooth finish. You are now ready to paint.
