INSTALLATION: WALL Z-CLIPS

NOTE ABOUT Z-CLIPS
Z-clips installed on the wall should have the interlocking side facing up. The slotted side of the clips face
the wall. The length of the clips is to account for contact with the existing wall stud behind the wall sheet-
ing. Mount the Z-clips to studs only.

• Use a stud-finder to mark the stud locations above, below, and flanking the fireplace within the relevant
area you will be installing the surround. Screw into these locations for structural integrity. Note, you can
drill into the fireplace cabinet using 3/4” self tapping screws.
• The included z-clips should exceed 16” slightly. Holes are predrilled to 16” to line up with the rule of 16”
on center. There should be center drilled holes as well.
• Before sinking the second screw, make sure you level the clip off along the guideline.
