each other. The included screws or double-stick tape can be used for mounting. If needed depending on the style of your
door or window frame, use some of the double stick tape beneath one of the pieces to ensure they are at the same relative
height.

6) Mount the magnet to the door or window as close to the edge as possible

7) Mount the TriggerLinc main case to the door/window trim
