Using a pencil, trace the outline of the 2 legs against the wall.

Remove the 2 legs.

Screw 2 2x4's to the wall. They should be placed inside the outline close to the outside edges. The 2x4's should be secure (either to wall studs or using anchors).

Make sure that the thickness of the pre-cast pieces is taken into account: Do not place 2x4's right against the outline. Leave enough room between the 2x4's and the traced line to allow the legs to fit in place.

Before placing the legs in the correct positions, drill holes for screws on the outside of each leg. These screws will fasten each leg to the 2x4.

Put each leg into correct position and attach using the screws.

As an added measure, construction adhesive may be used between 2x4's and the pre-cast legs.

After the legs have been fastened, place the mantel top in its correct position, and draw its outline against the wall. A level may be used to insure that the top is in the correct position.

Remove the mantel top.

Screw a 2x4 to the wall. It should be placed inside the outline close to the outside edges. The 2x4 should be secure (either to wall studs, or using anchors).

Make sure that the thickness of the pre-cast piece is taken into account: Do not place 2x4 right against the outline. Leave enough room between 2x4 and the traced line to allow the top to fit in place.

Before placing the top piece in the correct position, drill holes for screws on the top of the piece. These screws will fasten the top piece to the 2x4.

Put the mantel top into correct position and attach using the screws.

As an added measure, construction adhesive may be used between 2x4 and the mantel top.

All screw-holes and gaps can now be filled with the stone coloured filler supplied.
