Locating Fireplace
Before setting fireplace into the framed opening, attach the framing
brackets to the fireplace and secure to framing. The framing brackets
may be installed on the fireplace in the flat state. Once the fireplace
is placed into the framed opening, the brackets can be hand bent
over the framing and secured. This allows the fireplace to be
inserted into the pre-framed opening. Different hole locations can
be used for finishing materials with thicknesses of 3/8", 1/2" and
3/4". Secure the brackets with screws provided using two (2) per
framing bracket.
See
Figure
9.
Framing brackets should fit directly against framing material. Use
at least one (1) nail or screw per bracket to secure in place.
IMpORTANT!
Check squareness of all openings of the fireplace
prior to securing to the framed openings.
