NEW CONSTRUCTION
WITH
NO REVEAL
Framed room with no drywall
At each corner of the room, measure and mark the wall down
from the ceiling 11 ¼”. Measure and mark the ceiling out from
the wall 11¼”.
1.
Block in-between the wall studs and/or ceiling, if necessary,
to suciently attach the cove pieces. If building code requires
you to re block, reference Step 8. In this case, combining
steps 2 and 8 can save time.
2.
Using your marks as a guide, snap a line (with your chalk line)
on the wall and on the ceiling around the entire perimeter of
the room.
3.
Using a staple gun w/ 1” (or greater) staples/brads (PROs) or a
screw gun w/ 1” (or greater) deck screws (DIYers), install your
90° inside and/or outside corners (right angle) to align with
your snap lines.
4.
Using a staple gun w/ 1” (or greater) staples/brads (PROs) or
Screw Gun w/ 1” (or greater) deck screws (DIYers), attach a cove
piece butted to each side of each corner (either touching the
top of an inside corner or the bottom of an outside corner).
6.
Measure, mark and then attach all other cove pieces in-between
the butted cove pieces on each corner no more than 16” O.C.
Helpful Tip: For help spacing your cove pieces evenly between
each corner, visit www.archkit.com/cove-spacing to watch our
“How-To” video and see the mathematical formula.
7.
If necessary,
and/or
according to code requirements, re block
your Universal Cove Kit in between the studs along
the perimeter.
8.
The 6 90° corners are reversible to t both inside
and outside corners. If you have an inside 90°
corner, then the top halves will are outward like
the etchings of an arrow. If you have an outside 90°
corner, then the top halves will come to a point like
the head of an arrow.

If applicable, install your 45° inside corners by using 4 of the
40 cove pieces that have already been modied to be used as
a cove piece as well as 45° inside corner.
5.
If you have a 45° outside corner,
a template on the side panel
of the box has been provided.
Trace your 45° outside corner on
to a piece of ½” plywood/OSB,
cut it out and then install.
