Chatterton Lacework installation instructions.

Chatterton Lacework advises that all the corner sections of the lacework must be installed first by holding the corner into the top section of the post and fixing it to the post and the beam above with plasterboard or wood screws utilising the fixing lugs on the corner.

Once the corners are attached the decorative dropper is installed in the centre of the span between the two posts to the beam.After fastening the dropper to the beam,the lacework is fixed by fitting one section of frieze to the edge of the corner.This is done on both corners on either side of the span.Any lace overhanging the dropper must be cut neatly to fit behind the decorative dropper.Repeat this process on the lacework on the opposite side of the span.

If there is a gap between the frieze and the dropper as a result of the span being wider,cut a small section to join onto the lace to fit behind the dropper
