This process usually requires two installers,
but it can be carried out by a single installer if necessary.
First mark out a line for the holes using laser technique
or chalk line. Measure all fixings at the same time. It is
important that the drilled holes are on a straight line.
One of the installers should go into the loft, above
where the rail is to be fitted. The other installer should
bradawl a long screwdriver through the holes in the
ceiling so that the installer in the loft can find the
positions of the holes. Once these positions have been
established, the installer can measure the lengths of
steel channel and rod that are required.
