2. After that, markup is performed.. Before it is important to measure the length of the eaves and compare it with the size of the window opening. If necessary, the tire can be trimmed or lengthened. To carry out the marking, it is necessary to establish the structure symmetrically with respect to the window. After that, on the surface of the wall should be a pencil mark the place where the screws will be located. Often, technical holes are already being made in the eaves.But if they are not there, they should be drilled before marking.
3. When the markup is complete, holes should be drilled at the marked points. This can be done with a drill with a drill of the appropriate size. After that, the cornice is screwed with screws to the dowel, which is installed in the previously specified places.
