Wiring Base Run

Use the Layout stick to mark 3/4" above the floors JackBaserun/124_lg.jpg

If you are doing sconce runs mark 5 1/2" at the same time JackBaserun/125_lg.jpg

Mark every level, and Dividers thru the doors JackBaserun/126_lg.jpg

Lay the Base Run above the mark (3/4") JackBaserun/127_lg.jpg

Peal the backing as you go WiringAssets/PeelBackingL.jpg

The runs are smooth and tight JackBaserun/128_lg.jpg

Keep the tapewire tight into the corners JackBaserun/129_lg.jpg

Follow the top of the Mark JackBaserun/130_lg.jpg

Stop 3/4" before the door JackBaserun/131_lg.jpg

I will make a folded corner - the first fold is away from the new direction JackBaserun/132_lg.jpg

the second fold is in the new direction: 'fold toward' JackBaserun/133_lg.jpg

3/4" from the door cutout to 1/2" above the door - 'fold away' JackBaserun/134_lg.jpg

'fold toward' - this house doesn't have room next to the door... JackBaserun/135_lg.jpg

... but your house may have room to go down 3/4" from this side of the door JackBaserun/136_lg.jpg

'Fold away' and 'fold toward' for every corner JackBaserun/137_lg.jpg

... like this. Folded corners don't get eyelets WiringAssets/FoldedCornerL.jpg

Finish the Base Run in one piece - no cuts or splices JackBaserun/138_lg.jpg
