Nailing Flanges
Two nailing flanges are shipped with the fireplace to secure the fireplace to the framing or cabinet. For framing, secure
the nailing flanges to the framing from the front. For cabinets, secure the nailing flanges to the inside of the cabinet.
Secure the nailing flanges to the fireplace with the included nuts (see figure 8). Use the correct alignment hole for either
½” (13mm) or 1” (25mm) facing (see figure 9).
When re-installing the side flange, make sure
it tucks under the top flange.

Facing Other Than
½” (13mm) or 1”
(25mm) Thick
If the facing is not ½”
(13mm) or 1” (25mm)
thick, temporarily secure a
strip of facing material to
both sides of the fireplace
opening. The facing
thickness must represent
the total thickness of the
finished facing. Insert the
fireplace into place and
slide it back until the front
of the fireplace (including
screw heads) is flush with
the facing. Secure the
fireplace to the framing or
cabinet using shims and
the nailing flanges or the
nail down brackets (see
Figure 11).
Trim Strip
Install the included trim strip as shown in Figure 10. This conceals the drywall edge near the fireplace.
