Step 25 Install Windows
1.
Apply caulking around the window opening before installing the windows.
2.
Hold the window in the opening using a few nails with a flat head so the trim can be
inserted in the slot. Nails used to install shingles work well.
3.
Insert 38-1/2" long 1x3 trim boards along each side of the window, flush with the top
frame. Note; the front flange projects above the window frame creating a slot for the trim.
The top trim will rest on the side trim. The 1x3 side trim will extend below the window
to receive the bottom trim.
4.
Secure the trim boards using (6) six stainless trim screws.
5.
Install a 29-1/2" long 1x3 trim across the top. Apply caulking along the top.
6.
Cut a a 29-1/2" long 1x3 trim board and install under the window.
7.
