What happens here
Carefully place the fully assembled mitered baseboard corner around the floor vent opening. Ensure it fits snugly against the wall and the floor. Secure the baseboard to the wall using a nail gun (or hammer and finish nails). Finally, apply a thin bead of caulk or sealant along the top edge of the baseboard where it meets the wall, and along any visible mitered joints, to create a smooth, finished, and professional appearance.
Goal: Secure the mitered baseboard corner to the wall and caulk for a finished look
