What happens here

With the mounting brackets securely in place, carefully lift the fully assembled mantelpiece and slide it onto the protruding parts of the brackets. Ensure it fits snugly and is flush against the wall. The mantel should sit securely on the brackets without wobbling. Take final measurements with a tape measure to verify that the mantel is centered and level. Once confirmed, the rustic mantel is complete.

Goal: Mount the finished mantel onto the fireplace structure
