Your wood arch requires some assembly. In your shipment you 
should have received the following items: 
NOTE: The number of items shipped is dependent on the size of the arch.

     

•  Please DO NOT remove the  

     

  wood shims in the grooves of 

     

  each support until installation  

     

  is complete. These shims are 

     

  necessary to keep the wood  

     

  supports from splitting during  

     

  installation

Please make sure that you have the following: 
  • Steel tape measure
  • Power Drill and

  • Level (for outside mount)
  • Awl (or tool for starting a screw hole)
Included are the screws needed for a normal installation. Depending 
on the mounting surface, fasteners other than the screws provided 
may be required. Wall board and plaster require the use of anchors 
such as expansion or toggle bolts. Bricks, tile and stone need 
special plugs and drill bits. Wood should always be pre-drilled to 
avoid splitting.
