    1. Cut the diamond plate to the desired size. A good measurement would be to cut it four inches wider than the width of the window and 1/3 the height.

    2. Drill four pilot holes through the aluminum for mounting to the window frame.

    3. Screw the diamond plate tread to the window frame using 1/2 inch screws (figure K).
