Ironing Center Installation From "Bathroom Renovations" episode DBTR-209

Host Amy Matthews and homeowner Mel discussed the plan for the bathroom. They then installed the new ironing center.

We started with a plain 1980's bathroom...

that had sub-zero personality.

Now, we have a bathroom that is up-to-date...

complete with an ironing center!

4. Line up the center of the template with the center mark on the wall, and draw a pencil line around it.

5. With a jab saw, cut out a square within the outline of the template large enough for you to reach your arm in to feel around for any obstructions (figure D).

7. Slide the iron cabinet into place (figure F).

8. Secure it to the wall with screws (figure G).
