The installation of the R30 Newly chair rail is simple and similar to that of other Newly models, but it includes specificities due to its rounded design. Here is a step-by-step guide to install it correctly:
Materials needed:
- R30 Newly Picture Rail
- Newly mounting clips (included with the rail)
- Drill with suitable bit
- Screws and dowels (depending on the type of wall)
- Spirit level
- Marking pencil
- Screwdriver
- Hacksaw (if the rail needs to be adjusted)
Installation steps:
1. Preparing the installation
- Choose where you want to install the picture rail, generally close to the ceiling for optimal aesthetics.
- Using a spirit level, draw a straight line on the wall to guide the installation.
2. Position the fixing clips
- Newly clips should be spaced approximately 30-40cm apart.
- Place a clip between 2 rails for a solid fixing.
3. Mark the fixing points
- Position the clips along the drawn line and mark the hole locations with a pencil.
4. Drill and fix the clips
- Drill the holes at the marked locations:
- For a solid wall (concrete, brick) : Use standard anchors.
- For a hollow wall (plaster, plasterboard) : Choose suitable anchors.
- Secure the Newly clips with screws, making sure they are properly aligned.
5. Install the R30 Newly picture rail
- Position the picture rail on the clips fixed to the wall.
- Press firmly to clip the rail into place. You will hear a "click" indicating that the rail is correctly installed.
6. Check and finalize the installation
- Check that the picture rail is properly secured and aligned.
- Test with a hanging wire and a Newly hook to make sure everything is functional.
Practical tips:
-
Cut the rail if necessary :
If the rail is too long, cut it with a hacksaw and file the edges to avoid sharp edges. -
Finishes and fittings :
If you are installing multiple rails or in corners, use Newly connector accessories for a flawless finish. -
Optimal spacing :
Leave enough space between the picture rail and the ceiling to facilitate the installation and hanging of the works.
