codes or location. Make sure no wall studs, pipes or
wires run through the opening area
2. Drill a guide hole at the center of the opening area.

point.
A. Use a T-square to measure 10 3/4” (27.3 cm) to
the left
of the guide hole, then down 12 7/8”
(32.7cm) to locate the top left corner of the
layout.
