The profile should be fixed in steps of 500 mm, and check the level with a level. What is important, at the inner corners of the profile is fixed to the back, and already at the outer corners you need an angle of 45 degrees.

With the help of roulette it is necessary to mark the places of fastening of the carrier tires. First make a small hole at a distance of 300 mm from the wall, and the next should be through 90 cm, while parallel to each other.

• If necessary, the height of the tires is corrected, and this is done by changing the depth of screwing in the screws.
• If the width does not fit the last rake, you just cut it. Mark this distance along the length of the rod, draw the line with a knife and bend until the rake breaks.
• Install this trimmed rail, and fasten it with wooden spacers or pieces of angled profile.

To connect the lamp, you need a wire with a section of 1.5 square meters. And this is quite enough for standard lamps.
