Fixing Instructions - Hard Resin Over - Door Decoration, Corbel and Niche
Please read all the instructions carefully before commencing fixing.

Preparation

Ensure the surfaces are clean, sound, flat, dry and free from grease and loose particles. New or bare surfaces should be primed.

Fixing instructions

1. Mark the required position.
2. Apply adhesive to the back fixing edges.
3. Push into position and fill and wipe off any surplus adhesive with a clean damp cloth.
4. The white finish of these products acts as an undercoat for most decorative paints. For best results use acrylic eggshell.

Embellishments
If the embellishment is required to support ornaments, screw fixing is recommended.

Corbels
Corbels can be secured with a standard brass plate screwed into the back of the moulding and plugged to the wall.

Niche
1. When fixing the niche, plug and screw into the wall about 1” (2.5cm) below the position of the top of the niche.
2. Place the niche over this and pull down firmly until the screw head “bites”.
3. Apply adhesive to the back edge, and push into position, fill and wipe off edges.

Over-door decoration

Adjusting the length
Measure the top of the doorframe. If the moulding is longer, adjust as follows.

1. Note the difference between the length of the moulding and the top of the doorframe.
2. Using a fine saw cut off the rectangular end blocks.
3. Cut off each end of the centre section a length equal to half the difference between the total moulding length and the doorframe.
4. The centre section and the two end blocks will now fit exactly to the doorframe.
5. Apply adhesive to the backs of the end blocks and round the back edge of the centre section. Press firmly into position, smooth excess adhesive round edge with finger and wipe off excess with a clean damp cloth.
