What happens here

Measure the horizontal lengths for the top and bottom trim pieces. Again, use a tape measure for accuracy and transfer these measurements to your new trim material. Use a skill saw or chop saw to cut these pieces. Using a framer's square will help ensure these cuts are perfectly straight, which is crucial for a tight fit and clean appearance.

Goal: Cut the new horizontal trim pieces to the correct length.
