Troubleshooting
Moulding is splitting during installation
Ensure you are using a sharp saw and consider pre-drilling tiny pilot holes if using nails or pins.
Corner joints do not line up perfectly
Use a quality mitre block and verify that your frame angles are exactly 90 degrees before cutting the moulding.
Moulding feels loose after installation
Check that the glass is properly seated against the rebate and consider adding a thin layer of glazing tape to increase tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For installation, ensure you have a sharp fine-tooth saw to prevent splintering the hardwood. Always measure twice before cutting. While the product is sturdy, it is best stored in a cool, dry place to prevent warping or bowing before use. If you are painting or staining the wood, ensure you do so before final installation to avoid getting finish on the glass. Regularly check the moulding over time to ensure that no pins have loosened due to temperature fluctuations or frame movement.
